Working at Figment

Figment is a remote-first, globally distributed company. Our culture is centered around honesty, professionalism and risk-taking in a high-growth environment.

For this role we are focusing primarily on hiring people in the North American PST ↔ EST time zones. There are no core hours and teammates are trusted to focus on results and team velocity.

If you’re just outside those time zones, and are willing to make yourself available for a minimum overlap of 3hrs of between 9am-5pm with the PST time zone, and in general making yourself reasonably available for team coordination, we welcome you to apply!

You’ll be working in a lightweight Agile environment, with support from your Engineering Manager and Product Managers, with massive opportunities for autonomy and growth.

Figment fully expects to hire the best talent for a job, and let them have full autonomy and trust in being able to do that job to the best of their abilities with minimal management oversight. We also expect teammates to be able to help shape the team culture and working practices.

Your career development and professional growth is also a key cornerstone of how we grow people and invest in them, and you can expect active coaching and help on those aspects.
