Frontend Engineer - Brand Application (open to remote across ANZ)
  • Full-time
  • Recruitment type: Permanent

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 a 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.

About the Group/Team
The Brand Experience Group is on a mission to empower anyone to bring their brand to life with every design. We're transforming how enterprises manage brand consistency at scale, using cutting-edge AI to interpret guidelines, offer context-aware guidance, and continuously learn from user behaviour and performance data. We are building a future where Canva's brand management solutions proactively enhance creativity rather than restrict it, delivering massive customer ROI through efficiency, brand consistency, and faster time to market.

As a Frontend Engineer in the Brand Application team, you will design and implement the user interfaces and interactive components that bring our brand system and components vision to life.

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 a flavour of the type of things you'll be working on when you start, but this will likely evolve. At the moment, this role is focused on:

  • Design and build stunning UI for our Brand System, focusing on usability and visual appeal.
  • Develop responsive, high-performance UI components that balance brand compliance with creative flexibility.
  • Implement Frontend components for the agent-based AI framework, ensuring seamless user experience across real-time brand guidance, audits, and analytics.
  • Utilise modern Frontend technologies to build interfaces that push the boundaries of brand management at Canva.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, Backend Engineers, ML engineers, and designers to ship cohesive AI-driven brand experiences that scale across enterprise customers.
  • Proactively prototype and experiment with new UI approaches that could enhance brand compliance, flexibility, and user experience.
  • Participate in code reviews and technical discussions to maintain high code quality and share knowledge across teams.

What we're looking for
We're looking for a highly skilled and hands-on Frontend Engineer who is passionate about creating intuitive, engaging user interfaces. You don't need prior experience in brand management—but you should be excited to dive deep, learn fast, and shape the future of AI-powered brand experiences.

You'll be a great fit if you have:

  • 3+ years of experience in frontend development, ideally with modern frameworks like React.
  • A track record of building and shipping user-friendly, visually appealing interfaces, particularly for complex data-driven applications.
  • A growth mindset - excited to apply your Frontend expertise to a new field, learning rapidly about brand AI, enterprise needs, and the intersection of compliance and creativity.
  • A passion for staying at the cutting edge of Frontend development, constantly evaluating new techniques and applying them to real-world challenges.
  • A product-first mindset, with a strong intuition for how UI can enhance user experience, improve workflow, and simplify complex systems.
  • Strong problem-solving and ownership mentality, capable of driving UI projects from conception to execution.
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with experience working alongside product managers, ML engineers, designers, and business stakeholders.

This role is for someone who wants to create intuitive, engaging interfaces for cutting-edge AI solutions and define the future of AI-driven brand management at Canva. If you love working on challenging UI problems, learning new domains, and building interfaces that balance power with simplicity, we'd love to hear from you

What's in it for you?
Achieving our crazy big goals motivates us to work hard – and we do – but you'll experience lots of moments of magic, connectivity, and fun woven throughout life at Canva, too. We also offer a range of benefits to set you up for every success in and outside of work.

Here's a taste of what's on offer:

• Equity packages – we want our success to be yours too.

• Inclusive parental leave policy that supports all parents & carers.

• An annual Vibe & Thrive allowance to support your wellbeing, social connection, home office setup & more.

• Flexible leave options that empower you to be a force for good, take time to recharge, and support you personally.

Other stuff to know
We make hiring decisions based on your experience, skills, and passion, as well as how you can enhance Canva and our culture. When you apply, please tell us the pronouns you use and any reasonable adjustments you may need during the interview process.

We celebrate all types of skills and backgrounds at Canva – so even if you don't feel like your skills quite match what's listed above – we still want to hear from you

Please note that interviews are conducted virtually.
