Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.
Hey, g'day, mabuhay, kia ora,你好, hallo, vítejte!
Thanks for stopping by. We know job hunting can be a little time consuming and you're probably keen to find out what's on offer, so we'll get straight to the point.
Where and how you can work
Our flagship campus is in Sydney. We also have a campus in Melbourne and co-working spaces in Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. But you have choice in where and how you work. That means if you want to do your thing in the office (if you're near one), at home or a bit of both, it's up to you.
What you’d be doing in this role
As Canva scales change continues to be part of our DNA. But we like to think that's all part of the fun. So this will give you the flavour of the type of things you'll be working on when you start, but this will likely evolve.
At the moment, this role is focused on:
- Build and maintain delightful and reusable frontend experiences and components
- Collaborate with product designers and Figma designs across Canva to clearly understand the use cases for large organisations while identifying engineering requirements
- Contribute to defining, improving, and codifying best practices and methodologies for frontend engineering at Canva
- Communicate and collaborate with other team members to figure out the best solutions to difficult problems
- Participate in design and code reviews
You're probably a match if you have
- We'd love to hear from you if you fit one or more of these:
- Experience in developing rich web applications, ideally Typescript/React/MobX
- Five plus (5+) years of professional work experience in Software Engineering
- Experience in stakeholder communication or internal advocacy
- Practical knowledge of data structures and algorithms
Nice to have:
- Working with and contributing to a unified design system in collaboration with other teams
- Cross-browser and cross-device development
