We are looking for an experienced Data Engineer to partner with our Data Science and Data Infrastructure teams to own and scale our data pipelines. You'll also work closely with stakeholders across business teams including sales, marketing, and finance to ensure that the data they need arrives promptly and reliably. You'll play an integral role in building the metrics and self-serve reporting capabilities to unlock Figma's next phase of growth. This is a great role for an individual who is passionate about working with data and data systems, and who loves solving problems. You'll have a good sense for when it makes sense to build fast, scrappy solutions to unblock a key stakeholder vs. when to push back or bring in an outside service.
