Join the team redefining how the world experiences design. 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 QA Engineers' mission at Canva is to ensure that the team they're working with are always thinking about quality while working on their big goals. We believe quality is something that should be checked continuously throughout the process, not just at the end.
QA engineers at Canva are embedded in a product group, generally with multiple teams, and work closely with product managers, designers, and software engineers to ensure that we're delivering an exceptional experience to all our users. Some of the day-to-day tasks include improving or setting up different quality activities during the development cycle, using data to prioritize and advocate for issues, working with engineers to write unit, integration, and end-to-end tests, and identifying risks with product releases.
At the moment, this role is focused on:
Being the main driver for improving quality in your embedded team/s and working with key stakeholders to drive process, tooling, and testing changes. Being responsible for creating the test strategy for the team's projects, with a focus on shift-left QA activities instead of just test execution. Being the subject matter expert for the team's testing and product knowledge, driving knowledge sharing and documentation for your team and other teams' software engineers and QA. You'll probably be a match if: You have experience working with product teams and defining the QA process built on Shift Left Testing and Quality Assistance model. You have experience coaching/guiding team members with testing best practices. You have experience in testing API, UI, and mobile apps (iOS and Android). You have a good understanding of what needs to be included in unit, integration, and end-to-end tests and can coach engineers on what needs to be automated. You are meticulous in your work and passionate about testing, considering every possible scenario during exploratory testing and spotting bugs that others might not notice. You have experience coordinating with multiple teams and driving QA initiatives (e.g., setting up Quality Metrics dashboards). A nice to have: You have automated tasks using TypeScript or Java. You have experience with observability tools like Sentry.io to track down issues. You can query databases and reporting systems using SQL or similar to get data to support your bug reports. About the team You will be joining the Teams and Education group whose mission is to power up design to enable learning, creativity, collaboration, and productivity. Our main focus is Content Management experience, fast & seamless Brand Design experience, and Learning Experience.
