Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.
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. 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.
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.
About the Technical Program Managers
At Canva, we’re all constantly striving towards our Crazy Big Goals! Since growing to a worldwide team of over 3,500 we need to work effectively together and improve our delivery ability as we scale, which is where our Technical Program Managers come in.
As a Technical Program Manager, it is your mission to work closely with senior managers and product development teams to build a sustainable culture of positive urgency in delivery. You will lead complex, multi-disciplinary programs and be equally comfortable working with leadership to set strategic goals and clarify priorities, as you are with teams to communicate program status, escalate issues and manage dependencies as you are discussing technical trade-offs with an engineer.
About the Product Growth Supergroup
The Product Growth Supergroup is on a mission to supercharge Canva’s product growth engine. We are responsible for User growth, Teams growth as well as revenue growth. Within the Product Growth Supergroup, we’re responsible for driving the holistic product growth strategies for our foundational goals, creating a centre of excellence for product-driven growth and ensuring that our products are getting into the hands of as many users as possible.
Growing teams is a critical goal across the entire company. Our group is doubling down on a wide range of growth experiments and new product initiatives to drive Teams growth.
Through doing this we are also deepening our focus on establishing our B2B best practices and growing our business, which already has 80% of Fortune 1000 customers onboard. On top of this, Canva has over 1 million paid teams and over 10 million monthly active users in teams.
We are early on in our journey to make Canva the household name for teams, and there is a whole lot more to do to achieve our vision and so we are looking for a Senior Product Manager to join us and help propel us towards our vision.
About you:
You thrive in a collaborative fast-paced environment, working with Product, Design, Marketing, Sales, Data and everyone else in between to solve the highest impact problems for our users and Canva’s business. Continually learning and adapting, you strive to grow yourself and those around you. You love to take green-field opportunities and build solutions & processes to solve them. Living and breathing all things growth, you make data-informed, strategic decisions and deliver.

- Knowledgeable in technical concepts, systems and practices
- Experience working with onsite and remote Product Managers, Designers and Engineers to deliver key company initiatives
- Comfortable with ambiguity in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities
