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 a 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

About the Group / team

Canva Code is on a mission to unlock a new creative superpower inside Canva—empowering anyone to design and build interactive experiences, powered by conversational AI. From dynamic web apps to interactive elements that seamlessly integrate into designs, we’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in a visual design platform.

As part of Canva Code, you’ll join the team working on cutting-edge features at the intersection of design, interactivity, and artificial intelligence.

We’re looking for a Frontend Engineer to help build the future of Canva Code. You’ll help shape the frontend architecture of the core product as we continue to scale and integrate more closely with the Canva Editor. This role is a great fit for engineers with a strong interest in AI and the exciting potential of Large Language Models. While you’ll spend most of your time on the Frontend, there’s plenty of scope to get involved in the full-stack from backend to prompt engineering.

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.

What you’ll do

  • Design, develop and deploy solutions and hands-on software development – working closely with leads, designers, and product managers to ship features that make code creation accessible to everyone.
  • Leverage technologies like LLMs, MCPs, and internal AI platforms to deliver magical experiences.
  • Primarily working on web frontend with Typescript, but plenty of opportunity for those interested in working across the full-stack.
  • Contribute to frontend architecture decisions in a rapidly changing landscape as we scale Canva Code across new surfaces and use cases.
  • Facilitate knowledge sharing and optimally advocate for engineering needs to non-technical team members within the group.
  • Models initiative and ownership in achieving goals, improving processes and solutions.
  • Advocate for performance, accessibility, and maintainability in everything you build.

You're probably a match if

  • You will have strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to break large ambiguous projects down into smaller ones and deliver on them independently and with others.
  • You will have firmly grounded computer science and engineering fundamentals including asynchronous programming, data structures, solution design, architecture, and design patterns.
  • Our frontend stack consists of JavaScript, HTML, CSS, React, TypeScript, MobX, etc.
  • You will have experience working in fast-paced environments, collaborating with cross-functional teams.
  • Ability to work collaboratively with team members and managing cross team dependencies.
  • Good written and verbal communication skills.
  • Highly desirable: Experience with AI/ML integration, particularly working with large language models and prompt engineering for code generation.

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 stack 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 well-being, social connection, office setup & more
• Flexible leave options that empower you to be a force for good, take time to recharge and support's you personally
