Job Description

Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.

Hey, hello, hiya, g'day, mabuhay, 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 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. That means 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.

• Finding solutions to accommodate our cloud security and compliance requirements, and provide better insights to our engineers.
• Proactively improving the user experience with compliance and advocating for best practices.
• Being responsible for building and improving our secrets platform and tooling with exceptional quality, at a regular cadence, that impacts all Canva engineers.
• Providing technical leadership and expertise to drive pragmatic solutions and dive into impactful design decisions.
• Participating in team ceremonies, knowledge sharing, brainstorming sessions etc.
• Becoming a security champion, evangelising the best practices and guiding other Canvanauts in the cloud security space.
• Providing on-call support as part of a rotation with the team.

You're probably a match if

• You are proficient and happy to code in Golang (preferred), Python or Java.
• You have a solid understanding of Computer Engineering fundamentals and Cloud Security best practices.
• You are proficient with infrastructure-as-code. We’re a Terraform shop, but strong experience with other IaC tools will do the trick.
• You have solid knowledge of how to use Compute, Data Stores and Object Stores in the Cloud (AWS preferred but we’re open to up-skilling).
• You have experience building platforms offering security capabilities to the rest of the business.
• You have strong written and verbal communication skills.

It’s nice to have the following experience as well.

• Experience building tools to provide secure and auditable access to Cloud Environments.
• Experience building guardrails for secrets across enterprise environments using tools such as HashiCorp Vault.
• Experience building a robust and scalable Cloud Identity & Access Management platform.
• Experience working with Kubernetes (preferred) or similar container orchestration tools.
• Experience working with Bazel (preferred) or similar large-scale build tools.
• Experience building automation to ensure Cloud compliance.

About the team

The Cloud Access team is part of the Cloud Governance sub-group and is responsible for the experience of accessing the cloud, using secrets in the cloud, and mitigating risks introduced into our cloud environments. Our goal is to provide our development teams with world-class tools to ensure workloads are seamlessly secure in our Cloud environment. We achieve this by combining industry-leading third-party solutions with our own in-house developed solutions, deployed across our entire Cloud environment. As we scale, all of these areas require more sophisticated solutions to ensure that Canva’s engineers continue to adopt the cloud without compromising on security or efficiency.

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.

• 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
