Figma is growing our 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. From idea to product, Figma empowers teams to streamline workflows, move faster, and work together in real time from anywhere in the world. If you're excited to shape the future of design and collaboration, join us!

Figma is seeking Software Engineering interns to join our Developer Tools pillar, where you'll help build the bridge between design and development. Our DevTools team is responsible for streamlining the entire development lifecycle, from design handoff to production, with a focus on enabling frontend engineers to move faster and deliver higher quality products. We're building systems that connect design intent with real-world codebases, making it easier for developers to find, understand, and translate designs into production code - especially by leveraging AI.

You'll work on tools like Dev Mode for inspecting and collaborating on design intent, Code Connect for mapping design to real code in your codebase, or the MCP server, which powers AI-assisted translation of designs into production-ready code. You'll gain hands-on experience with our tech stack including TypeScript, React/Redux, and WebAssembly.

This internship will be based out of our London hub.

What you’ll do at Figma:

• Contribute to Dev Mode, Figma's leading tool for dev/design collaboration, working on technical projects that directly relate to your team and team goals

• Collaborate with engineers, PMs, designers, and QA to break down features and plan timelines

• Build, document, and maintain tests, features, or infrastructure

• Share feedback and participate in peer code review

• Ship your project(s) by the end of your internship!

Past intern projects:

• Diagramming Improvements in FigJam

• Smart selection

• Shared fonts

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

• Have experience writing clean code in at least one general-purpose language (e.g. C++, JavaScript, React, C++, Python, etc.)

• Are comfortable with core CS concepts like data structures and algorithms

• Have worked on projects through school, work, or personal exploration that required solving technical problems

• Are excited to explore how systems are designed and operate, from infrastructure to UI

• Communicate well, ask great questions, and enjoy collaborating with others

• Are excited to learn, get feedback, and grow as an engineer
