About the Role
The Engineering TPM team at Figma is seeking a Technical Program Manager (TPM) to partner with the Infrastructure team. This role focuses on enabling infrastructure teams to scale, improve performance, and deliver critical projects through coordinated technical execution across various backend, infrastructure, and security teams. The TPM will manage large-scale efforts, including prioritization, decision-making, execution tracking, and driving operational excellence in a dynamic environment.
Responsibilities
- Lead the execution, coordination, and risk management of infrastructure projects, ensuring seamless integration with minimal performance impact.
- Drive key infrastructure initiatives, including reliability, storage, distributed systems, cloud-native performance improvements, and compliance programs.
- Partner closely with engineering, security, compliance, and legal teams to ensure alignment and on-time delivery.
- Track program milestones and ensure seamless delivery across multiple infrastructure teams.
- Provide regular updates to executive leadership, external partners, and internal teams on program status, risks, blockers, and dependencies.
- Develop and drive best practices in infrastructure program management, improving visibility into progress, risks, and technical dependencies.
- Facilitate large-scale testing and rollout strategies for critical infrastructure changes to minimize downtime and ensure high system reliability.
- Translate technical constraints and risks into executive-level communications for senior leadership and external stakeholders.
Requirements
- 8+ years in Infrastructure TPM or related roles (cloud engineering, SRE, or infra-focused software engineering).
- Hands-on experience in cloud-native architectures and distributed systems (AWS, GCP, or similar).
- Deep technical expertise across infrastructure components - storage (S3, RDS, DynamoDB), caching (Redis), search (OpenSearch), and event-driven systems (Kafka).
- Ability to reason across org-level goals, architectural trade-offs, and component-level details.
- Track record driving large-scale infrastructure programs such as migrations, cost optimization, encryption/key management, and reliability initiatives for high-availability, business-critical services.
- Strong cross-functional program management skills, including coordinating multi-team engineering orgs, tracking performance bottlenecks, optimizing infrastructure SLAs, and establishing PM best practices in ambiguous environments.
- Proven stakeholder management, with experience engaging external partners (cloud providers, enterprise customers) and translating complex technical challenges into clear executive-level communications.
