Figma is a collaborative design platform that enables teams to create, prototype, and handoff designs in the browser. Dylan Field and Evan Wallace founded the company in 2012 with the mission of making design more accessible and open. To date, Figma has raised over $330 million from investors such as Greylock, Kleiner Perkins, and Index Ventures.
The company launched FigJam in 2022 for online whiteboarding and the Visual Worksuite with tools for video, websites, and data visualization. Looking ahead, Figma aims to expand beyond interface design into a broader creative suite of tools and features. For prospective employees, Figma offers the opportunity to shape the future of collaborative design workflows and be part of a mission-driven, remote-friendly culture.
A key challenge Figma faces is maintaining its focus on simplicity and collaboration as it scales its team and product offerings. The company must also contend with intensifying competition from incumbents like Adobe investing in web-based design tools, and possible disruption from a new generation of AI-enabled tools.
