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.

At the moment, this role is focused on:
Building efficient and reusable front end abstractions and systems Working closely with stakeholders and designers to create world-class support experiences Collaborating within and across teams to create wholistic solutions Identifying and improving practices and methodologies for front end engineering Finding opportunities for cross-team collaboration to work on new ideas and improvements Empowering and mentoring other engineers You'll be taking ownership of a domain that is rapidly growing in scale, that captures customer's feedback, harnesses user research, create and share insights with teams across Canva and close the loop with users when their issues have been solved.
You will also work closely with other team members building solutions that help users get back to designing quickly by self-solving their issues and, if needed, handing them over to support agents smoothly.
You will get hands-on experience writing reusable code and technical documentation to build intuitive user and staff facing experiences.
You will lead and contribute to projects, discover opportunities and drive experiments. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced engineer who knows how to both communicate well and design systems and components that balance simplicity and flexibility.
