Dylan Field (born 1992) is an American billionaire technology businessman, and co-founder of Figma, a web-based vector graphics editing software company. Field founded Figma in 2012 with Evan Wallace, whom he had met while they were computer science students at Brown University. In 2012, Field received a Thiel Fellowship, a $100,000 grant conditioned on his leaving school to begin working full-time on the company. Field moved to San Francisco with Wallace, where they spent four years preparing the software for its first public release in 2016.

In 2015, Field was named to the Forbes 30 under 30 list. He owns a 9% stake in Figma. In August 2025, Forbes estimated Field's net worth to be $6.6 billion.

Field grew up in Penngrove, California. He is Jewish. Field was an only child, named after the poet Dylan Thomas. His father worked as a respiratory therapist at Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital and his mother as a resource specialist teacher at Thomas Page Elementary School. As a child, Field was adept at math, learning algebra at age six. Field's father told a Santa Rosa area newspaper in 2012 that Dylan found middle school so boring that "he mostly hung out with a janitor, who was kind of a math savant." Field was interested in computer science from a young age and participated in FIRST Robotics. He also participated in the arts as a child, acting with credits in TV ads for eToys.com and for Windows XP, and taking an interest in design starting in middle school.

Field attended high school at Technology High School, a magnet school for science, technology, engineering, and math on the campus of Sonoma State University. While in high school, Field built robots and websites for friends. He also worked with social media researcher Danah Boyd, who ultimately wrote one of Field's letters of recommendation for college.

In 2009, Field enrolled at Brown University, where he studied computer science. Field was an involved member of Brown's computer science department: In 2011, he organized a hackathon in which 150 students participated, and starting in late 2011, he co-chaired Brown's CS Departmental Undergraduate Group.

While attending Brown University, Field interned at LinkedIn and the news-sharing startup Flipboard. At his LinkedIn internship, Field helped devise a social-impact program. His second summer, he interned as a software engineering intern at Flipboard. Afterward, Field began to doubt his plan to major in computer science and math, so he took spring semester off during his junior year to pursue a six-month internship at Flipboard in Palo Alto, this time as a technical product manager.

Around that time, Field met Evan Wallace, another computer science undergraduate studying at Brown; the two decided they wanted to start a company together. One year ahead of Field at Brown, Wallace studied graphics, and was a teaching assistant in the computer science department.

During a semester away from Brown, Field applied to the Thiel Fellowship, a US$100,000 grant awarded to young entrepreneurs by investor Peter Thiel on the condition that they drop out of college for at least two years. Field's parents were initially not supportive. Field recalled in 2012, "They totally did not want me to apply." His father told the same interviewer, "Pretty much everything we earned went to education." In its second year, the Thiel Fellowship had attracted 500 student applicants; 40 finalists were named and 20 were ultimately selected. Field was awarded the Thiel Fellowship in May 2012 and dropped out of Brown to accept it.
