Company Description

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 – we trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals.

Job Description

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:

• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to understand multi-team administrative requirements and designing scalable solutions • Being a mentor and example to more junior engineers on the team • Delivering great user experience to administrators by ideating and confirming tech feasibility of solutions to manage large-scale enterprises • Leading continuous improvement efforts within your team • Troubleshooting and resolving technical issues related to the team’s domain, including participation in the on-call rotation • Staying updated on industry trends and best practices to innovate and improve the domain owned by the team

You're probably a match if:

• You have experience writing production code in Java • You follow disciplined coding practices and are experienced with code reviews and pull requests – you're someone who models best practice • You have strong communication and collaboration skills, both written and verbal • You approach engineering by first understanding the problem and then crafting the solution • Experience with protocol buffers, AWS (like DynamoDB, SNS/SQS) is a bonus

About the team

The Admin Experience Group is on a mission to revolutionise how large teams utilise and administer Canva. We deeply understand the needs of our diverse customers, ranging from classrooms to workplaces. Our primary focus is to design new features that empower our users with flexible configuration and robust team management capabilities. As a close-knit group, we thrive on collaborative problem-solving and brainstorming sessions, where we come together to tackle challenges and generate innovative ideas. You will play a crucial role in helping us execute on our vision.

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
