We're looking for a Developer Advocate to join our JAPAC Advocacy team, based in Tokyo. This advocate will support content creation, and community building through field events & livestreams, go-to-market motions, product initiatives, and 1:1 customer engagements with our sales team. Advocates at Figma are practitioners first - people who understand the complexity of modern product development firsthand and can advocate for user needs internally.
This is a hands-on role that blends technical depth, communication, and strong product intuition. You'll write production-quality code, build demos and tools, and directly support developers and technical teams. You'll also operate as a connective layer across functions - helping translate between customer needs, product decisions, and go-to-market execution.
This is a full time role in our Tokyo office, within a hybrid environment.
