Staff Frontend Engineer - Teams & Education - Content Management & Distribution
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. 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.
Job Description
What you’d be doing in this role
We need a staff engineer to design and deliver an architecture that can evolve how we store media, video, audio, and documents into a generalised asset and file store that we can build upon with core and Wow features such as commenting, sharing,, automation, 3rd party integrations, and AI.
What you’ll do (responsibilities)
Play a leading role in defining the technical roadmap and architecture for the front-ent powering Home, Content Management, and the AI Powered DAM across T&E, Media Platform, and Product Platform.
Propose innovative approaches and solutions to future-proof Canva's product decision platforms and deliver on business outcomes.
Design and implement the most intricate aspects of the system, showcasing your aptitude for tackling complex technical challenges effectively.
Guide the implementation of major projects, planning task breakdown and keeping engineers in sync using excellent verbal and written communication skills, including architectural diagrams.
Provide guidance and mentorship to other engineers, assisting them in their professional development and helping them navigate technical challenges.
Have a widespread impact across the organization by facilitating and orchestrating cross-team initiatives that set a higher standard for reliability, velocity, and security.
Advocate for best practices that enhance our groups performance and reliability.
What we're looking for
You have experience working with the core frameworks in our frontend stack - JavaScript, HTML, CSS, React, and TypeScript.
Are firmly grounding in computer science and engineering fundamentals including concurrency, multithreading, data structures, solution design, architecture, and design patterns.
Have a passion for great UX, storytelling and collaboration.
Have cross-browser knowledge as we are often driving changes that may have implications across many different browsers, devices, and modalities.
Are familiar with building out experiences on the back of a design system.
Have worked to build and ship impactful product and/or changes.
You consider performance in everything that you do, especially as it relates to a great product experience.
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.
