Corporate Development & Strategy

Figma is growing our team of passionate people on a mission to make design accessible to all. Born on the Web, Figma helps entire product teams brainstorm, design and build better products — from start to finish. Whether it’s consolidating tools, simplifying workflows, or collaborating across teams and time zones, Figma makes the design process faster, more efficient, and fun while keeping everyone on the same page. From great products to long-lasting companies, we believe that nothing great is made alone—come make with us!

The Corporate Development & Strategy team focuses on M&A, Figma Ventures, strategic opportunities and long-term product strategy. This role is an excellent opportunity to join a small team that influences long-term company-wide investment initiatives. This position offers a great opportunity to work closely with key executives and internal cross-functional stakeholders to help direct Figma’s growth, primarily by driving impactful acquisitions.

This is a full time role that can be held from one of our US hubs or remotely in the United States.

What you’ll do at Figma:

  • Build the corporate development deal pipeline, including outreach to and sourcing of new opportunities
  • Support all aspects of deal execution including financial modeling, due diligence, integration planning, and coordination of cross-functional teams
  • Develop a deep understanding of the competitive landscape and help build relationships with key players in the industry (e.g. VCs, companies, founders, etc.)
  • Conduct market research, synthesize findings, and work with senior team members to develop strategies and identify acquisition opportunities that help shape company and product strategy

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

  • 4+ years of relevant experience in corporate development, investment banking or related fields
  • Ability to manage complex processes from start to finish and a desire to work cross-functionally 
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills alongside strong financial modeling skills
  • Demonstrated ability to work autonomously to drive projects to completion

While not required, it’s an added plus if you also have:

  • Experience sourcing deals, building relationships with founders, and managing M&A processes
At Figma, one of our values is Grow as you go. We believe in hiring smart, curious people who are excited to learn and develop their skills. If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with the points outlined in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
