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 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.

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:

• Working across the entire Product Platform Supergroup to promote data self-service and scalable insight generation.

• Building and maintaining robust, scalable data pipelines that empower product teams to make data-informed decisions, with a particular focus on AI insights.

• Partnering with Product Managers, Designers, and Engineers to scale and future-proof our experimentation platform.

• Partnering with our User Platform & Performance teams to build and maintain our data assets in the warehouse.

• Translating complex business requirements into clear and structured data models.

• Ensuring data quality, accuracy, and governance across analytics datasets.

• Collaborating closely with other data professionals to establish best practices for data development and documentation.

You're probably a match if

• You have deep experience in analytics engineering or a similar role, with a strong command of Snowflake and/or data warehousing in general.

• You are comfortable with SQL, Python coding, and data modelling. 

• You enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams and transforming ambiguous business questions into structured analysis.

• You can work across multiple project areas simultaneously, bringing your analytics engineering perspective to each project.

• You care deeply about data quality, governance, and maintainability.

• You're comfortable owning data pipelines end-to-end and building scalable data products.

• You thrive in fast-paced, high-impact environments and are motivated by Canva's mission.

• You're excited to mentor other data team members and elevate the craft of analytics engineering.

• You have skills or a background in backend engineering as a bonus.

About the team

The Product Insights & Enablement (PIE) group sits within the Product Platform Supergroup and exists to help every Canva team ship with confidence and measure outcomes. You'll join a mission-driven team of data professionals passionate about empowering others with high-quality, actionable insights that influence Canva's product development and strategic direction.

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.
