Hey, g'day, mabuhay, kia ora, 你好, hallo, vítejte
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
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.
At the moment, this role is focused on:
- You'll architect and implement major subsystems within the core Native Video Engine, making critical technical decisions that will influence the platform for years to come
- You'll lead complex rendering pipeline development, optimising for performance, memory efficiency, and cross-platform compatibility
- You'll mentor and guide junior engineers, sharing your expertise in graphics programming, performance optimisation, and system design
- You'll collaborate with product teams to translate user needs into technical specifications, ensuring our engine delivers exceptional creative experiences
- You'll establish coding standards, development practices, and architectural patterns that will scale with our growing team
- You'll research and evaluate emerging technologies in graphics and video processing, keeping Canva at the cutting edge of rendering innovation
- You'll drive technical discussions and decision-making processes, balancing performance, maintainability, and feature requirements
You're probably a match if
- Deep expertise in graphics (Vulkan, OpenGL, DirectX) with hands-on experience building high-performance rendering systems
- Proven experience in shader development, performance optimisation, and multi-threaded graphics programming
- Strong background in memory management, real-time rendering, and rendering pipeline architecture
- Experience with video processing, encoding/decoding, and multimedia frameworks
- Solid programming skills using system languages (C++, Rust)
- Track record of leading technical projects and mentoring engineering teams
- Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to debug complex graphics and performance issues
- Experience working with cross-platform development and hardware-specific optimisations
