Technical Program Manager, Security

Figma is growing a 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.

About the Role

We're looking for an expert Technical Program Manager (TPM) to support our Security Operations team. You'll partner with Business and Technology teams to lead cross-functional programs that are critical to how we manage risk and secure our organization. You'll ensure alignment across teams, deliver on commitments, develop solutions, and clear roadblocks. You'll shape how teams work together—championing security practices, strengthening operations, and solving tough problems with scalable, repeatable practices.

What You'll Do

• Own end-to-end program execution for security, compliance, and infrastructure initiatives—managing dependencies, milestones, risks, and reporting at a portfolio level
• Lead highly cross-functional programs, using strong project management skills to deliver complex initiatives in a collaborative and transparent way
• Drive project alignment by handling dependencies, guiding technical discussions, facilitating decision making, and ensuring the right conversations happen at the right time
• Influence outcomes by building trusted, strong partnerships across the organization
• Champion effective ways of working—finding the right balance of tools, structure & practices while continuously improving how we collaborate and deliver on our commitments

Required Experience

• 5+ years of program or project management experience in a cloud or SaaS environment supporting enterprise technology or security teams
• Strong understanding of information security principles and controls, including data protection, access management, and application security
• Ability to dive into technical details and apply that knowledge to drive alignment and solve complex challenges
• Experience communicating complex security risks and tradeoffs to both technical and non-technical audiences
• Proficiency with project management and collaboration tools (e.g., Asana, Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, Notion, Figma) and the judgment to apply them effectively based on team needs

Preferred Qualifications

• PMP & Scrum Certifications
• Prior experience with identity and access management systems and practices, vendor security and technology governance processes, risk assessments, security investigations, detection and response
