Job Description

Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.

Ahoj, 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, Australia but Prague is home to part of our European operations. And with that, you'll have choice in how you work, we trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals.

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.

  • Lead the team to develop and deliver exciting new product visualizations and editing features to Canva.
  • Contribute to the evolving stack as part of a highly functional and passionate team.
  • Work closely with other product teams in Australia to collaboratively innovate and deliver cutting-edge functionality.
  • Coach, lead, and mentor your team to help them achieve their goals.
  • Perform structured performance reviews with your team members, conduct regular 1:1s, participate in the hiring process of new engineers, and plan goals & milestones for your team.
  • Promote collaboration, open communication, and continuous learning and development opportunities for your team to foster a positive and productive work environment.

You're probably a match if

  • You have previous experience as a Software Engineer - in tune with software engineering fundamentals and first principles; comfortable contributing to design documents and performing thorough code reviews and, at times, coding when needed.
  • You’ve got experience and knowledge of cross-browser and cross-device development as well as strong knowledge of JavaScript and web technologies (HTML/CSS).
  • You have several years of experience in people management, leading and mentoring other software engineers. Providing mentorship to others is close to your heart and you thrive by empowering others.
  • You bring strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to clearly articulate problems and solutions.
  • You have a strong ability to influence and work cross-functionally across several internal teams, to work with a diverse range of individuals from different backgrounds, with different expertise, and with different professional and personal needs.


About the team

We own the Mockups product, which helps individuals and businesses worldwide create engaging visual materials and develop cutting-edge graphic tools that showcase Canva designs in real-world settings. The tools we build feature an outstanding mockup image library and advanced graphics capabilities. To achieve this mission, the team works with 3D graphics and videos while using industry-leading technologies, including Gen AI, WebGL, WebGPU, WebAssembly, and more.

The role will be a software engineering manager, leading a team of 4-8 engineers, ensuring the engineers stay engaged and progress their careers in skillsets whilst delivering complex features in the Canva Editor. Along with the need for excellent people skills, the role requires the ability to understand complex technical concepts so that we can deliver product visualization features seamlessly without breaking other parts of the highly integrated Canva system. Finally, the ability to align with other teams and leads across the group and company, including cross-time zone synchronization, is critical.

What's in it for you?

Achieving our crazy big goals motivates us to work hard - and we do - but you'll experience lots of moments of magic, connectivity and fun woven throughout life at Canva, too. We also offer a range of benefits to set you up for every success in and outside of work.

Here's a taste of what's on offer:

  • Equity packages - we want our success to be yours too
  • Inclusive parental leave policy that supports all parents & carers
  • An annual Vibe & Thrive allowance to support your wellbeing, social connection, office setup & more
  • Flexible leave options that empower you to be a force for good, take time to recharge and supports you personally

Other stuff to know

We make hiring decisions based on your experience, skills and passion, as well as how you can enhance Canva and our culture. When you apply, please tell us the pronouns you use and any reasonable adjustments you may need during the interview process.

We celebrate all types of skills and backgrounds at Canva so even if you don’t feel like your skills quite match what’s listed above - we still want to hear from you!

Please note that interviews are conducted virtually.
