Hey, g'day, 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 Sydney campus is uniquely Canva - an extension of our Surry Hills neighbourhood. It’s a thoughtfully designed space with plenty of room to collaborate, focus, and connect.
This role is based in Sydney, and we’re looking for someone who calls it home. Our hybrid way of working gives you the flexibility to work remotely, and to come together on campus for meaningful in-person collaboration and connection when it matters most. 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
Mobile Platform owns how Canva runs on iOS and Android, and the portable libraries layer is one of the most technically interesting pieces of the mobile bet. Every product team at Canva builds on top of what this group ships. Write the foundational libraries once, in a performant system language, and run them everywhere. Rust and C are on the table. The interface, the safety model, and the ergonomics for engineers consuming them across every runtime are the open problems.
The strategic bet is a hybrid stack with React Native at its core, supported by a set of portable libraries that run across iOS, Android, and web from a single codebase. This role sits at the heart of the portable libraries work. Hundreds of millions of users open Canva on a phone or tablet, and the libraries you build will run underneath every one of them.
There's a second reason this work matters now. This is where deep mobile expertise meets systems programming. Not many engineers operate at that intersection. The ones who do shape how products like Canva get built for the next decade.

What success looks like. The portable libraries ship to production and run reliably across iOS, Android, and web. The interface feels native to the engineers consuming it from every runtime. The patterns set by this role become the foundation that other mobile work at Canva builds on.
You’re probably a match
We'd love to hear from you if you fit one or more of these. You don't need to meet all of them, but the more the better and if you join the team, we're invested in helping you grow.

About the Group and Team
Join Client Platform at Canva, where our mission is to ensure a delightful experience for every user on every device. Client Platform owns the foundations that every product team builds on, including Web Platform, Mobile Platform, and the user-facing surfaces of the product. Hundreds of millions of users sit on top of what this group ships. Every Canva product runs on it.
Mobile Platform is the group inside Client Platform responsible for how Canva runs on iOS and Android. We're the team for engineers who care deeply about mobile performance, who want to shape how cross-platform mobile gets built at scale, and who want to own the next decade of how Canva runs on a phone or tablet.
The work compounds in two directions at once. Every team at Canva benefits when the mobile platform gets faster and more capable. And the architectural decisions made here will outlast most of the systems built on top of them.

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.
