## Description

Figma is growing our team of passionate creatives and builders on a mission to make design accessible to all. Figma’s platform helps teams bring ideas to life—whether you're brainstorming, creating a prototype, translating designs into code, or iterating with AI. From idea to product, Figma empowers teams to streamline workflows, move faster, and work together in real time from anywhere in the world. If you're excited to shape the future of design and collaboration, join us!
 Figma is building the system of record for digital product development: collaborative tools with natural interfaces that bring PMs, developers, QA, and designers together. That creates new-to-the-world problems in how we build AI products, understand how people use them, and evaluate what makes them useful. You'll work with a unique, petabyte-scale dataset with rich traces of collaborative design and product building to tackle those problems. We're looking for an Applied Data Researcher who combines scientific depth with a proactive builder mindset. Reporting directly to our Head of Data, with regular visibility with C-level executives, you'll identify and vet opportunities, lead investigations into critical questions, and build useful Data products, tools, and prototypes. You'll work across Data Science, Engineering, Product, Design, and AI Research, building directly and providing technical direction to teams of other scientists as efforts grow.
 This is a full time role that can be held from one of our US hubs or remotely in the United States.
