Senior Account Executive - Figma Weave
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 building the next chapter of AI-native craft and creativity - where craft and technology meet. Our unified platform bridges the gap between AI capabilities and human creativity, and lets professional creatives and designers harness the power of the world’s leading AI models without losing precision, expression, or soul. Together, we’re building tools that help people move faster without sacrificing quality, precision, or craft — a platform where AI supports creativity instead of flattening it.
We are looking for Account Executives who are excited to help creative teams explore what’s possible with generative AI. Figma Weave is a startup within Figma, and you will play a key role in winning new business while helping contribute to how our team sells. You will work closely with Figma AEs and cross-functional partners to understand customer needs, demonstrate relevant workflows, and guide opportunities from first conversation through close. This is an opportunity to get hands-on with a fast-evolving product, work with exciting logos as they embrace GenAI, and help shape a growing team.
This is a full time role that can be held from one of our US hubs or remotely in the United States.
