Leonardo.Ai

At Leonardo.Ai, we’re reimagining how the world creates. Our generative AI platform empowers anyone, from hobbyists to professionals, to design and produce stunning images and videos with speed and creative freedom.

Now part of the Canva family, we’re building a world‑class R&D team that’s shaping the next generation of creative tools for over 250 million users worldwide. It’s a team that believes in curiosity, collaboration, and doing meaningful work together.

About The Role

As a Senior Front‑End Engineer, you’ll help craft the interfaces that make AI feel simple, intuitive, and genuinely delightful. You’ll work across our Generation, Enterprise, Growth, and Experience Tribes, helping to design tools that empower millions of people to bring their ideas to life.

You’ll join a team that values trust, openness, and collaboration. Here, engineers are encouraged to share ideas, learn from each other, and build with empathy. You’ll have absolute ownership, a voice in how things are built, and the space to do your best work alongside people who care about getting it right, not just getting it done.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and Build with Care : Develop elegant, maintainable front‑end systems that are fast, intuitive, and beautifully crafted.
  • Collaborate Across Teams : Work closely with designers, product managers, and AI researchers to bring creative ideas to life.
  • Shape Our Front‑End Direction : Help evolve our architecture, design systems, and workflows to make engineering more seamless and scalable.
  • Support and Mentor Others : Share knowledge, provide thoughtful feedback, and help foster a supportive and inclusive culture of learning.
  • Champion Quality and Accessibility : Ensure our products are performant, accessible, and built for everyone.
  • Bring Fresh Thinking : Stay curious, explore new front‑end approaches, and share your findings with the team.

Skills We Love

  • Front‑End Expertise : Experience building production‑ready applications with React, Next.js (App Router), and TypeScript.
  • Collaborative Architecture : Strong understanding of component design, rendering patterns, and performance optimisation, always with an eye for simplicity and teamwork.
  • Systems Thinking : Hands‑on experience with GraphQL, CI / CD pipelines, and design systems, plus a genuine interest in improving how engineers build together.
  • Empathetic Leadership : A track record of guiding projects or mentoring engineers through clear communication, care, and thoughtful feedback.
  • Growth Mindset : Curiosity for new technologies and an openness to learning from those around you.
  • Connection & Communication : Strong communicator who values clarity, inclusion, and shared understanding across disciplines.
  • Creativity & Purpose : A love for creative tools and a belief in the power of AI to make imagination more accessible.

    • Why You’ll Love It Here

    We’re fast‑moving but kind. Driven but grounded. You’ll be part of a team that takes pride in what we create and in how we create it together. We celebrate curiosity, value care, and recognise that the best ideas come from people who feel safe sharing them.

    Our Culture

  • Inclusive Culture : We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and empowered.
  • Flexible Work Environment : We understand the importance of work‑life balance. Enjoy the flexibility to work remotely or from our vibrant offices.
  • Empowering Growth : Your development is our priority. We offer continuous learning opportunities and career growth tailored to your goals.
  • Impactful Work : Join us in shaping the future of AI. You’ll work on innovative projects that have a meaningful impact, and your contributions will help drive advancements in AI creativity.
