About the Teams and Education (T&E) SuperGroup
We have launched multiple SaaS products tailored to the needs of some of our biggest audiences; Canva Pro, Canva for Enterprise, Canva for NFPs, and Canva for Education.
The T&E SuperGroup is involved in the success of these products, which have millions of customers in almost every country around the world and which drive much of Canva’s revenue. In T&E, we perform everything from crafting and building outstanding product experiences, our GTM strategies to launch them, commercial partnerships, global distribution strategies, and so much more.
We strive to further grow these products by ten fold globally over the next few years. The SuperGroup is made up of 4 Groups, 15 teams and almost 200 diverse Canvanauts who work together to delight our users with our tailored products and help Canva to achieve its user and growth goals.
At the moment, this role is focused on:
Playing a leading role in delivering sharing and permissions features across the whole of the Canva product, including our flagship design experience, content management, and brand.
Proposing innovative approaches and solutions to future-proof Canva's product decision platforms and deliver on business outcomes.
Engaging with others to shape the improvements through writing design documents and running design meetings.
Advocating for best practices that enhance service performance, resilience, and adaptability.
Designing and implementing the most intricate aspects of the system, showcasing your aptitude for tackling complex technical challenges effectively.

Providing guidance and mentorship to other engineers, assisting them in their professional development and helping them navigate technical challenges.
Having widespread impact across the organization by facilitating and orchestrating cross-team initiatives that set a higher standard for reliability, velocity, and security.
