About the team

The Apps APIs Group is on a mission to give developers the tools to extend what’s possible in Canva and build infinite experiences that users love. We make it easy for developers to innovate on Canva, unlocking new ways for users to bring data in, create, collaborate, customize, and publish their work. Whether it’s an individual maker or a global enterprise, we enable everyone to build seamlessly into Canva’s ecosystem.

Millions of users rely on Canva every day to grow their businesses — whether it’s designing compelling ad campaigns or persuasive pitch decks. Behind every one of these is data: the images, product details, and past performance needed to generate incredible designs; the charts and infographics that bring business trends to life. In this role, you’ll lead a cross-functional team to build the tools that enable developers and work with partners like Meta and Google to inject that critical data into Canva. You’ll collaborate across the company to unlock opportunities from Canva AI to our core design suite.
