Hey, 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, we trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals.
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:
- Leading ML platform projects end-to-end from ideation to delivery
- Implementing changes to our build process for model servers, improving developer experience while also ensuring consistency and traceability from dev through to production.
- Working closely with other teams to understand how we can improve our existing services and platforms, or introduce new ones, in order to optimize their efficiency.
- Modernizing our underlying AWS serving infrastructure by migrating to EKS, as well as uplifting our account structure to expose new regions and services.
- Working to "platformize" new (or immature existing) capabilities such as model observability.
- Continue exploring opportunities for our platform teams to better leverage each other in order to optimize for delivery of both product and R&D teams.
You're probably a match if
- Proven track record of delivering wide changes and acquiring buy-in from multiple stakeholders.
- Passionate about engineering excellence, systems architecture, and meeting non-functional requirements.
- Background in integrating and scaling ML within engineering systems.
- Understanding of Computer Science/Engineering fundamentals and first principles covering system design, data structures, architecture, and design patterns
- Excellent collaboration, communication, and stakeholder management skills
It would be preferable if you have:
- Deep expertise in Python development is essential, with experience in modern development tools such as Bazel or Nix being a plus.
- Experience with containerization, Terraform, and GitOps principles for automation and deployment is a plus.
- Familiarity with the AWS ecosystem: ECS, EKS, ECR, Kinesis.
