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.

You're experienced with building scalable solutions. You are keen to build high-quality middle-ware that runs in clients. You have a strong JavaScript background, but want to work in TypeScript. About the Team Offline is part of Performance, which is important for us in Canva. We want to be the fastest graphical design tool in the world.

We tackle the culture of building performance in multiple areas: make it easy to measure and analyze performance issues, improve our architecture to make performance easy to achieve, and build robust patterns to allow building features with performance by default.
A part of making Canva fast is making Canva work offline. An offline product for Canva will support our users in creating, editing, viewing and downloading their designs anywhere, anytime, with or without a reliable internet connection.
The Offline team is responsible for building the first set of important features for an offline Canva product. We then build the tooling and architecture necessary to empower other product teams. We also write down documentation and guides that help them understand our tooling and architecture.
About the Role We are looking for engineers with an interest in building an alternative experience to the product we have by pushing for two work streams: deliver the first offline features in Canva, and empower other product teams to build more offline features easily.
The Offline team is a product team with a platform mindset, so your role is to balance building the Offline platform, with dogfooding our tooling and platform work by building offline features for the core Canva user experience, such as viewing and creating designs.
As a software engineer in the Offline team you will be collaborating with engineers from many different parts of the company to build the whole offline experience in stages, implementing and improving user flows one-by-one, from an MVP to a fully fledged experience for the millions of Canva users in the world.
