The read

The machinery manufacturer added 48 hires against 18 exits over 90 days, driving net headcount up 30 in a growth phase centered on engineering (356 roles, the largest function). Leadership builds intensified in commercial operations and finance, with new VP-level roles in Commercial Logistics and Strategic Finance/FP&A joining the org. Inbound talent skewed heavily toward Tesla (7 hires) and Apple (4), signaling Figure's draw from tier-one hardware and automotive ecosystems. Warehouse operations and data/visualization roles led departures, while promotions elevated supply chain and technician talent into senior and director tiers—consistent with scaling production and NPI capabilities.
