Product Designer, AI Models at Figma · Katori

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!

We're looking for an AI Model Designer to join our team and become the bridge connecting our AI research innovations with world-class design principles. In this unique role, you'll help us teach our models how to be better copilots for designers. You'll work across all our products to improve our AI models' design capabilities and oversee evaluation quality.

This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of design. As an arbiter of craft and taste, you’ll help raise the ceiling for what designers can create with AI and shape the future of design tools.

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:

Collaborate closely with AI researchers to improve model performance from a design perspective
Develop and document design principles and heuristics that can be used by our AI systems
Build thorough methods to test and enhance the quality of AI-generated outputs
Oversee the quality of our design evaluations and give guidance to external partners
Be the bridge between the AI research team and designers, translating technical details for designers and design concepts for AI experts

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

Experience developing design heuristics and design principles
Experience leading design efforts for a suite of products or working on features that span multiple product lines
Experience using AI models for design tasks, either coding or image models
Proven track record in managing complex projects that involve collaboration across different teams and organizational boundaries
Experience managing contractors and multiple projects on tight timelines
Strong design background with excellent taste and attention to detail

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

Background in creating or evaluating AI-generated designs
Operational mindset with ability to improve processes
Technical understanding of AI/ML concepts and how they apply to design
Comfort navigating ambiguity and shaping open-ended challenges into clear goals
Strong communication skills for explaining complex concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
