The role: 

SoFi’s Creative Studio is seeking a highly detail-oriented Production Designer with deep expertise in Figma template development, visual design systems, and scalable production workflows. This role will focus on building, maintaining, and governing production-ready templates and design assets across digital and print channels.

The ideal candidate combines strong visual judgment with technical production expertise and a deep understanding of how design systems translate across formats, teams, and platforms. This person will help establish efficient, consistent, and high-quality design practices across the organization.

What you’ll do:

• Build, maintain, and manage scalable Figma templates, components, libraries, styles, variables, and production systems.
• Translate brand standards and creative direction into flexible, easy-to-use templates for digital, print, social, presentations, email, and marketing channels.
• Establish clear template structures, naming conventions, usage guidelines, and documentation.
• Create systems that support consistency while allowing for appropriate content and layout flexibility.
• Manage template updates, version control, archival processes, and ongoing system improvements.
• Audit Figma files and templates for visual consistency, usability, accessibility, accuracy, and alignment with brand standards.
• Develop and maintain production-ready assets across multiple sizes, formats, and channels.
• Adapt designs across digital and print applications while maintaining the integrity of the visual system.
• Create efficient workflows for high-volume asset production, localization, versioning, and content updates.
• Maintain organized digital asset libraries, file structures, documentation, and handoff standards.
• Identify production risks and system inefficiencies, then develop practical solutions that improve quality and speed.
• Support the continued evolution of the organization’s visual design system and production infrastructure.
• Contribute to the evolution and documentation of design systems, templates, workflows, and production standards.

What you’ll need: 

• 6+ years of experience in production design, graphic design, or a related field.
• Advanced experience building and managing Figma templates, components, libraries, styles, variables, and shared design systems.
• Familiarity with Figma variables, auto layout, component properties, publishing workflows, and template permissions.
• Strong portfolio demonstrating scalable visual systems and high-quality digital and print production.
• Expert knowledge of Adobe Creative Cloud, particularly InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop.
• Strong understanding of typography, grid systems, layout, hierarchy, composition, color, and image production.
• Experience developing templates for digital channels, including web, email, social media, presentations, and responsive formats.
• Exceptional attention to detail and a structured approach to quality assurance.
• Strong understanding of design system governance, documentation, accessibility, and version control.
• Knowledge of accessibility standards and digital file specifications.
• Ability to manage multiple projects, priorities, and system updates in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong organizational and problem-solving skills, with the ability to improve processes and identify production efficiencies.

Nice to have:

• Knowledge of print production, including prepress, color management, paper and finishing specifications, proofing, and vendor requirements.
• Experience preparing printed materials such as direct mail, brochures, packaging, signage, event materials, retail collateral, and large-format graphics.
• Experience working in financial services, technology, retail, or another detail-sensitive industry.
