Offer description

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. 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.

At the moment, this role is focused on

* Designing, building and operating a network spanning multiple infrastructure providers across the globe.
* Designing, building and operating software for infrastructure automation across multiple providers.
* Being on‐call for the team's products and drive operational excellence.
* Working with our stakeholders across Security, Product, and other Platform teams to understand their needs as we forge Canva's platform products.

You're probably a match if

* You have strong software and networking engineering experience with Golang, Python or Java.
* You have a strong understanding of networking incl. routing protocols and network architecture, Linux networking concepts, e.g. nftables, FRR, and cloud networking in providers like AWS, GCP, or Azure.
* You have experience in deploying and operating networks with cloud or NaaS providers or operating networks in data‐centre, bare‐metal or telco environments.
* You have experience working with infrastructure platforms to create a foundation for building secure, reliable, and performant systems.
* You have experience with building infrastructure automation systems and control loop architectures.
* You have experience using declarative configuration to manage infrastructure.
* Experience as a software or network engineer building platform products to accelerate and empower engineers to achieve crazy big goals.

About the team

The Networking team is responsible for workload identity, application networking, connectivity, VPCs, and internal PKI. The team is part of the Core Infrastructure Group, which is made up of approximately 70 Software Engineers, and their goal is to enable the safe, secure, and reliable operation of canva.com. Core Infrastructure's mission is to reduce the complexity of using infrastructure resources so that engineers can focus on their own domains. We build products to support engineers across the company to easily provision and configure cloud resources, and release, run and operate workloads. Our goal is to ensure it's all done in the simplest and most secure way possible.

About the role

The Networking team is tasked with building Canva's core network to provide connectivity between services spanning infrastructure providers around the globe. Our network enables engineers to build truly global services and connects them to the compute needed to build powerful AI products in a competitive market.

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 stack of benefits to set you up for every success in and outside of work.

Here's a taste of what's on offer

* Equity packages – we want our success to be yours too.
* Inclusive parental leave policy that supports all parents & carers.
* An annual Vibe & Thrive allowance to support your wellbeing, social connection, office setup & more.
* Flexible leave options that empower you to be a force for good, take time to recharge and support you personally.
