Full Job Description
Our team of Customer Experience Managers (CEMs) work closely with some of Figma's largest customers to drive engagement, adoption, and value realization. Now, we're looking for an experienced and passionate leader to help scale this function in AMER.

As the Manager, Customer Enablement, you will lead a team of CEMs who partner deeply with select Mid-Market, Enterprise, and Strategic customers. You'll help shape the strategy of the CEM team, coach and develop individual contributors, and contribute to the broader goals of Figma's Customer Experience organization. We're seeking someone who has helped scale post-sales functions in high-growth SaaS environments and is deeply motivated by helping customers succeed and realize business value by using our platform.

If you're energized by enabling and developing customer-facing teams, and you have a background in SaaS and/or product design and development tools, we'd love to hear from you.

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:
  • Lead, manage, and grow a team of high-performing CEMs
  • Set clear goals and expectations, provide mentorship and coaching, and support career development
  • Partner with Sales, Support, Product, and Marketing to ensure customer needs are met and exceeded
  • Refine and scale playbooks and best practices for CEMs
  • Drive operational excellence through team processes, tooling, and reporting
  • Ensure the team is delivering exceptional value and experience across our enterprise customer base
  • Regularly engage directly with customers and act as an escalation point when required (while this is a leadership role, we expect this role to include strong player-coach dynamics)
  • Represent the voice of the customer internally and influence product strategy

We'd love to hear from you if you have:
  • 3+ years of formal people management experience in Customer Experience, Customer Success, or a similar post-sales function
  • 5+ years of total experience in customer-facing roles within high-growth SaaS companies
  • A customer-first mindset with strong strategic thinking and execution capabilities
  • A proven ability to lead, inspire, and scale teams, especially through growth and change, and a passion for building inclusive, thoughtful, and high-performance team cultures
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to connect with a wide range of internal and external personas
While not required, it's an added plus if you also have:
  • Familiarity with design systems, product development workflows, or Figma itself
  • Experience in a similar role at a design, collaboration, or productivity-focused SaaS company
  • A background in UX/UI, Design Ops, or Frontend Development
  • Fluency or proficiency in additional languages like Spanish or Portuguese


At Figma, one of our values is Grow as you go. We believe in hiring smart, curious people who are excited to learn and develop their skills. If you're excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly with the points outlined in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
