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.

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:

  • Designing, building, and maintaining core Kubernetes infrastructure components
  • Extending and supporting tooling to build and manage virtual machines
  • Investigating and resolving system performance and reliability issues
  • Creating and refining automation to improve reliability and reduce operational overhead
  • Being on-call for the team's products and drive operational excellence
  • Sharing knowledge with other engineers in infrastructure best practices

You're probably a match if

  • You have strong coding proficiency in Python or Golang
  • You have experience operating Kubernetes clusters in production environments
  • You have strong understanding of Linux systems and performance troubleshooting
  • You have experience with infrastructure as code and automation
  • You have an understanding of cloud networking and security principles
  • You have experience with observability systems and practices
  • You have a methodical approach to problem-solving and debugging
  • You are comfortable with ambiguity and ability to make appropriate trade-offs

About the team

The Runtime Platform sub-group is committed to empowering application developers by providing a secure, reliable, and adaptable platform that serves as the foundation for their creativity. Our work encompasses cloud networking, golden machine images, container orchestration, and application networking, all designed to inspire innovation and facilitate seamless application development.

At the heart of this sub-group is the Cloud Compute team, a dedicated group of senior engineers distributed across Australia. They manage the robust operation of our extensive Kubernetes clusters, which support over 140,000 pods across 8,500 nodes, utilizing 300,000 CPUs and 1.2 PiB of memory across multiple regions.

Our team thrives on a culture of collaboration, where knowledge sharing and data-driven decision-making fuel our progress. We balance tactical and strategic considerations to ensure Canva's evolving needs are met with precision and foresight.

We are devoted to mastering the complexities of the Linux environment, transforming intricate details into user-friendly solutions that are both flexible and scalable. Our mission is to build foundational components that empower Canva's teams to tailor solutions to their unique needs, fostering an inspiring and empowering environment for all.

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
