Senior Engineering Manager - Video Templates (Bay area only)

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:

Defining the roadmap for Canva’s next-generation video template system, including a scalable Template Schema and high-performance rendering engine across Web, Mobile, and Desktop.

Partnering closely with Motion Designers, Product Managers, and AI Researchers to translate creative needs into scalable engineering systems.

Architecting and overseeing the “Template Authoring Mode,” balancing professional-grade precision with Canva’s signature simplicity.

Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.
