We’re constantly working towards making Canva the best place to work, for everyone. We believe deeply that bringing together diversity of thoughts, perspectives and expression is key for building the best product for our equally diverse community all around the world. We celebrate uniqueness and whatever makes you, you and encourage everyone who wants to help us transform the way the world designs, to join us on this journey. We value all different types of experiences. If you don’t think you quite meet all of the qualifications, we’d still love to hear from you.  
About Us
At Canva, our mission is to democratise design and empower creativity for anyone and everyone, on every platform. Inspired by a team of talented thinkers, an amazing culture and a remarkable growth trajectory – we’re out to change the world, one design at a time. 
Since launch in August 2013, we have grown exponentially, amassing over 60 million monthly active users across 190 different countries who have created more than 6 Billion designs. We are one of the world’s fastest-growing technology companies and we have only achieved about 1% of what we want to do.
About the Product Design team
One of the principles of our design team is to ‘show the future’. As designers we transport the rest of the company into a future we’re yet to build. A big part of the role of a product designer at Canva is to be a visionary—visualising and reinventing the future of design. 
Product designers at Canva take the dream and make it something everyone can relate to and rally behind. We start from the very early stages: finding the right problem to tackle, exploring ideas for how to solve it and then refining it into a coherent solution. Our product designers carry out research, brainstorming, sketching, prototyping, and collaboration with our engineers to ship great products.  We are empathetic user advocates and respect our users’ opinions through interviews, usability testing, and data analysis, as well as wireframing, flowcharting, and journey mapping to show the different stages that customers go through as they come into contact with Canva.
About the Developer Experience team 
The Developer Experience team within the Ecosystem group are on a mission to attract and grow an active community of 3rd Party Canva Developers. We want to unlock the creativity of developers and empower them to build valuable tools and integrations for our Canva customers.  Building a thriving developer community is a fundamental pillar to our strategy for creating an abundant ecosystem that tailors Canva for 1 billion delighted users. This drives Canva’s MAU growth; allowing Canva to meet untapped user needs beyond our core editing experience whilst helping us connect to key integrations and tools so customers have everything they need within the Canva platform. 

Goals you'll achieve:

  • Audit the existing Developer experience to identify existing pain points or gaps in the Developer experience. 
  • Explore and simplify the App creation flow for developers; helping make the complex simple.
  • Provide on-going design updates to facilitate capturing the latest Ecosystem capabilities and documentation within the Developer Portal. 
  • Explore solutions for how developers can discover and learn they can easily build valuable tools and businesses on top of the Canva platform. 
  • Create resources that will help set Developers up for success as they build a tool or integration on Canva. 

Experience you'll have

  • You have experience with creating designs solutions that meet the needs of a two-sided marketplace or platform. 
  • You have an understanding of what drives a successful platform and can balance the trade-offs between meeting the needs of all customers within the platform.  
  • You have a portfolio that demonstrates experience in product thinking where you have previously shipped UX/UI design for digital products.
  • You are a designer that is constantly inspired—motivating those around you through your passion and drive for what you do.
  • You are excited by regularly coming up with new ideas, shipping new products and features that address your users’ real needs. 
  • You shine through your designs—creating user flows and wireframes that simplify user interactions 
  • You are eager to visually communicate your ideas through prototypes to test with users.  
  • You thrive in a collaborative workplace; partnering with other designers, engineers, product developers and other disciplines throughout the company.
  • You appreciate big-picture thinking. While details are everything, creating an experience that always keeps our users in mind is equally as important. 
  • You are a problem solver that’s excited by a challenge. You enjoy sitting in a room and whiteboarding ideas to confidently come up with simple, elegant solutions that everyone can move forward with.  
  • You are an empathetic user advocate that values the backing of research and data analysis when it comes to designing modern solutions. 
  • You enjoy a little flexibility in your work. Our growth means there are constantly new things to work on every day, as such it’s likely that you’ll often be working across the board on new and exciting projects.
