Job 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 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 a 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 :

  • Leading our Search Experience frontend team to deliver world‑class search functionality across Canva
  • Setting the technical vision and direction for how users explore, filter and interact with search results
  • Partnering closely with Product, Design, and Backend to ship seamless and scalable search experiences
  • Contributing hands‑on to major architectural initiatives and mentoring engineers by example
  • Driving enhancements like ML‑powered interactions, contextual result surfacing, and advanced filtering
  • Supporting and growing a high‑performing team focused on performance, accessibility and user delight

You’re probably a match if :

  • You’re an experienced frontend engineer with deep knowledge of modern frameworks (React or similar)
  • You’ve led teams or coached frontend engineers and enjoy developing people as much as products
  • You’re excited about crafting search systems that feel fast, intuitive and magical to users
  • You’re strategic, hands‑on, and love balancing quality with delivery
  • You have a strong product mindset and thrive in cross‑functional environments
  • About the team

    You’ll join the Search Experience team in the Global Content & Discovery Supergroup . We’re on a mission to help every user effortlessly find the content that empowers them to design. Whether it’s billions of templates, images, videos or designs — we make it discoverable. Our impact spans inspiration to creation, and we’re scaling fast.

    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, connection and fun woven throughout life at Canva.

    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 &omers & 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 support you personally
  • Check out lifeatcanva.com for more info.
