What you’d be doing in this role As Canva scales, change continues to be part of our DNA. This role is focused on: Being responsible for building and improving our observability platform and tooling, which is used by all Canva engineers. Providing technical leadership and expertise to drive pragmatic solutions and dive into impactful design decisions.

We achieve this by combining industry-leading third-party solutions with our own solutions developed in-house. We work across the entire stack maintaining our Type Script and Java tracing libraries, our tracing infrastructure, error reporting libraries, and error handling guidelines, to name just a few. As we scale all of these areas, we require more sophisticated solutions to ensure that Canva developers can continue to grow without compromising on reliability or availability. What's in it for you?
