Native Instruments information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Native Instruments Specialist, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Native Instruments Specialist, you need expertise in music production, sound design, and a strong understanding of audio engineering principles, often supported by relevant degrees or certifications. Proficiency with Native Instruments software (such as Kontakt, Komplete, and Maschine), digital audio workstations (DAWs), and MIDI controllers is essential. Strong problem-solving, creativity, and communication skills help you collaborate with artists and troubleshoot technical issues. These skills ensure high-quality music production, efficient workflows, and effective support for creative projects.

What are Native Instruments?

Native Instruments is a company that develops software and hardware for music production, DJing, and sound design. Their products include popular digital audio workstations (DAWs), virtual instruments, effects, and controllers such as Komplete, Maschine, and Traktor. Musicians, producers, and DJs use Native Instruments' tools to create, record, and perform music across various genres. The company is known for its innovative approach and high-quality sound libraries, making it a staple in both professional and home studios.

What is the difference between Native Instruments vs Audio Engineer?

Industry UsageMusic production, DJing, sound designRecording, mixing, mastering, sound editing

Native Instruments professionals focus on music software and hardware for production and performance, while Audio Engineers specialize in recording, mixing, and mastering audio in various settings. Both roles require technical knowledge but differ in their core responsibilities and work environments.

What collaboration opportunities can I expect as an employee at Native Instruments, especially within cross-functional teams?

At Native Instruments, employees frequently collaborate across departments such as product development, sound design, marketing, and customer support. Many projects are managed using agile methodologies, fostering regular communication and idea exchange among team members with diverse expertise.

Job description

Figma seeks an AI-Native Performance TPM to own performance prevention, diagnostics, and safe rollout for both our flagship products and next-gen AI features. This platform-level role spans desktop, browser and mobile; requires deep experience with performance testing (load, stress, endurance, interference), observability, and incident response. You'll partner across Product, Platform, Performance Program and Product Support. Join us to keep Figma snappy quick!

This is a full time role that can be held from one of our US hubs or remotely in the United States.ย 

What you'll do at Figma:

  • This is a specialist Platform TPM owning horizontal, high-visibility performance programs that span:
  • Flagship product performance (load times, FPS, memory) and AI features (model inference latency, throughput, cost, and reliability)
  • Desktop, browser, native mobile (React Native / WebView), and WASM contexts
  • Cross-org programs: observability/telemetry, regression prevention (performance CI), xfn performance forum, SEV mitigation, safe rollout of AI capabilities, and CE Planning (customer engineering / enterprise readiness)

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

  • 5+ years in performance engineering, performance TPM, platform TPM, or SRE with hands-on experience shipping performance programs for SaaS products
  • Demonstrated experience with load, stress, performance or scalability testing and new-build comparisons
  • Deep familiarity with web performance (FCP, LCP), rendering/FPS, WASM memory, mobile profiling (Xcode Instruments, Android Profiler)
  • CI/CD and test automation experience: integrating performance tests into pipelinesย 
  • Distributed systems, cloud infra (AWS), autoscaling, and capacity planning
  • Hands-on prior work with LLMs, prompt engineering, or agent platforms

While it's not required, it's an added plus if you also have:

  • Experience with MLops or LLMs: inference latency tradeoffs, batching, caching, etc
  • Observability stack: Datadog / Sentry / RUM
  • Background as a performance engineer (not just TPM) with code or test harness contributions.
  • Experience with large enterprise Planning / customer load tests.
  • Familiarity with real-time collaborative systems and GPU/WASM performance constraints.
At Figma, one of our values is Grow as you go. We believe in hiring smart, curious people who are excited to learn and develop their skills. If you're excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly with the points outlined in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
