<div> <b style="font-size:32px;">Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.</b> </div><div> <br> <div>Hey, g'day, mabuhay, kia ora,你好, hallo, vítejte!</div> <div> <br> <div>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.</div> <div> <br> <div> <br> <div> <b style="font-size:32px;">Where and how you can work</b> </div> <div> <br> <div>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. That means if you want to do your thing in the office (if you're near one), at home or a bit of both, it's up to you.</div> <div> <br> <div> <br> <div> <b style="font-size:32px;">What you’d be doing in this role</b> </div> <div> <br> <div> <span style="font-size:14.6667px;">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. </span> </div> <div> <br> <div> <span style="font-size:14.6667px;">At the moment, this role is focused on:</span> </div> <div> <br> <div>Engineering is a core part of who we are. You will work with a carefully selected team of ex-Google, VMware, ThoughtWorks, and Atlassian engineers. The team takes pride in its focus on engineering fundamentals. We strive to use the most appropriate tools for the tasks at hand, and to strike a measured balance between getting things done and long term maintainability. The team is tight, with no big egos, and welcomes engineers to come and join in on the adventure. Engineers frequently host sessions where a new idea or software engineering practice is discussed — this ensures that everyone in the team is constantly learning.</div> <div> <br> <div>We work hard to get our fundamentals right across the business. Consequently, the frontend code base is constantly being improved and optimised so new features can be implemented easily. We also have a flat structure where engineers are invited to comment on the direction their peers are taking on features. When a new feature is being built, engineers review each other’s code; this ensures that knowledge is shared and it doesn’t need to be reworked. You can find more about our engineering practices in this blog article.</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div>
