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, we trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals.

  • Collaborating . You'll work closely with our Content Review Group, Teams collaborating towards AI Training and the wider Product Design Specialty to ensure that we deliver a holistic experience for Creators, Partners, and our internal design team
  • Iterating . You'll gather learnings through your research and internal data, fostering close relationships with our valued sources of insights - Creators, In-house Designers, Reviewers, Content Ops and Community Managers.

You're probably a match if you have

  • A highly Collaborative Approach . You're happiest when working closely with other Designers, Engineers and Product Managers. You value feedback and brainstorming ideas.
  • A problem-first mindset . You're obsessed with identifying gaps/opportunities and enjoy deeply investigating ambiguous problems.
  • Effective Communication skills . You create clarity through your communication by making complex things simple. You can confidently present your ideas and tell a compelling story to the broader team.
  • A love for data . You love using data to evaluate user problems, inform your design solutions and measure success.
  • Stakeholder Management skills . You build trust with your teams and know when to bring the right people together to achieve common goals.
  • Experience conducting user research and usability testing . You're skilled in turning the outcomes into data to drive your design solutions.
  • Growth Mindset . You're eager to learn and develop your skills whilst having fun along the way


About the team

As Product Designer in the Content Platform group, you’ll help to ensure a steady flow of beautiful content from around the world into the Canva library. The majority of the work will come through the Content Design Quality Team, the product team that sits within this larger group.

The Content Platform group is on a mission to drive the creation of high-quality Creator content in our key strategic markets, supporting our ‘Truly local’ strategy.

This group is also playing a key role in an exciting, cross-group initiative - building tooling to allow Canva to be at the forefront of advancements in Machine Learning for AI design generation.

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 range 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 supports you personally
