Job Description

Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.

Hiya, 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

The buzzing Canva London campus features several buildings around beautiful leafy Hoxton Square in Shoreditch. While our global headquarters is in Sydney, Australia, London is our HQ for Europe, with all kinds of teams based here, plus event spaces to gather our team and communities. You'll experience a warm welcome from our Vibe team at front of house, amazing home cooked food from our Head Chef and a variety of workspaces to hang out with your team mates or get solo work done. That said, we trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals and so you have choice in where and how you work.

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:

  • Write, review, and maintain high-quality code for our data workflow components.
  • Build interfaces that help users format, transform, and structure their data effectively for visualisation.
  • Collaborate with designers and product managers to create user-friendly data preparation tools that non-technical users can easily understand.
  • Work closely with the Charts team to ensure seamless integration between data preparation and visualisation.
  • Participate in technical discovery and experimentation to explore new approaches to data manipulation and transformation.
  • Contribute to our testing strategy to ensure the reliability and quality of our data workflow components.
  • Help identify opportunities for improving our development processes and contributing to our product roadmap.

You're probably a match if

  • You have experience with TypeScript, HTML, and CSS, with a focus on building interactive user interfaces and have experience with modern frontend frameworks and libraries (React preferred).
  • You bring a strong understanding of data structures and manipulation principles.
  • You have solid knowledge of CI/CD systems (scripts, repositories, building agents, etc.).
  • You have prior experience building intuitive interfaces for complex operations.
  • You can showcase the ability to work collaboratively with team members and communicate effectively across teams outside of engineering (e.g., product managers, designers)
  • You ideally also have some experience with data transformation tools or libraries.


About the team

Got an eye for clean code and a passion for making data easy to work with? We're looking for a Frontend Engineer who can help transform how users interact with and prepare their data for visualisation. Our Data Workflows team focuses on the journey from raw data to visualisation formats, building intuitive interfaces that make data manipulation accessible to everyone.

In this role, you'll work on the vital data preparation side of visualisation, creating components that help users clean, transform, and structure their data effectively. You'll build interfaces that allow users to format their data correctly, create relationships between data points, and prepare it for compelling visual storytelling through our Charts library.

AI and machine learning have the potential to greatly increase the accessibility of data preparation and visualisation techniques to data-shy users. You'll help us develop smart tools that automatically suggest improvements to data structure, identify patterns, and make the process of getting from raw data to beautiful visualisation seamless and intuitive.

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
