Content Support Engineer at Figma - Remote US — Columbus
Traveler-Friendly Insight
US-Only Remote — Limited Nomad Flexibility
This role is explicitly restricted to candidates based in the United States, which significantly limits traditional digital nomad arrangements. While the position is remote-friendly (no specific US hub required), Figma requires US residency — meaning working from international destinations on a tourist visa while employed would likely violate employment terms.
Schedule & Timezone Considerations: The job description does not specify fixed working hours, but as a cross-functional knowledge and content role that coordinates with Support Specialists, some overlap with US business hours (likely PT/ET) is expected. The role is not explicitly async-first, though content/knowledge work is naturally more async-compatible than customer-facing support roles.
For US-Based Nomads: If you maintain a US address and work authorization, this role offers solid location flexibility within the country. You could base yourself in lower-cost US cities such as Austin, Denver, or Asheville and take advantage of the $140K–$269K salary range. In-person onboarding is required, so plan for at least one initial trip to a Figma hub.
- Cell phone & internet reimbursement is included — a practical perk for nomads changing locations frequently.
- Lifestyle spending accounts could offset coworking space costs in different cities.
If you're looking for a truly location-independent, internationally remote role, this position is not it. Consider roles explicitly labeled "global remote" instead.

We are looking for a Content Support Engineer to own the knowledge systems, strategy, and infrastructure that enable our Support team to deliver exceptional customer experiences at scale — ensuring every product launch, policy change, and process update is understood and executed by our Support Specialists and AI systems. You'll design the architecture that organizes how knowledge lives, build and optimize the automated workflows that keep it accurate at scale, and ensure both humans and AI can retrieve the right information at the right time. This is a role for someone who thinks in systems, measures everything, and wants to own a function end to end.
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:
- Design, build, and iterate on AI-powered content systems — including automated workflows and quality checks that keep the knowledge base accurate at scale — and develop human oversight mechanisms that ensure a high quality bar.
- Own the information architecture of our internal knowledge base, defining how content is organized, maintained, and structured for both human use and AI consumption.
- Build and execute a content strategy for the Product Support team, including a North Star vision, defined health metrics, and a regular cadence for communicating program impact tied to customer outcomes including CSAT and first contact resolution.
- Establish and maintain content governance standards including style guides, templates, and documentation frameworks so Specialists receive consistent, reliable information regardless of the source.
- Optimize how content tools (and AI agents) work together, ensuring the environment functions as a cohesive system with an evaluation strategy (especially for AI content) and identified improvement mechanisms to increase impact.
We'd love to hear from you if you have:
- 5+ years of experience building and maintaining knowledge or content programs at scale in a Support environment for a technical SaaS product, with proficiency in tools like Notion, Zendesk, and Decagon.
- An advanced practice of using AI tools as core infrastructure in your content workflow, with hands-on experience using AI to drive measurable impact (e.g., automate authoring, publishing, and conducting quality checks at scale).
- Experience with systems integrations via API, webhooks, MCP, or other methods.
- Experience building a content or knowledge management strategy including governance, information architecture, and measuring impact.
- Strong written communication skills with the ability to turn complex topics into clear, usable content optimized for both humans and AI systems.
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.
