📋 Description

• Drive decisions and alignment across Partners and Canva engineering. • Set technical direction for Canva's external platform surface. • Ground partner conversations in working code. • Drive product-line engineering across our external platform surfaces. • Carry the platform direction outward early. • Shape strategic partner and customer engagements.

🎯 Requirements

• 10+ years of software engineering experience, with several of those in roles operating at the seam between partner engineering, platform engineering, and product. • You've built developer platforms, not just evangelised them. • You've shipped code in production on platforms used by external developers. • You move fluidly between a product roadmap conversation, a system design discussion, and a partner negotiation, and you bring each one forward. • You bring a prototype or sample code to a hard conversation. • You don't oversell what's doable, and you don't overbuild what isn't needed. • You're technically deep on the modern AI platform stack. • You have real opinions on MCP, tool-use, agentic API design, and the tradeoffs between them. • You communicate directly. You resolve misalignments by writing clearly. • You've worked inside product stacks that are heterogeneous and move fast. • You know how to orient yourself quickly in a codebase you didn't write. • You raise the technical bar across Ecosystem engineering by sharing knowledge, feedback and bringing others into partner facing wins. • Hands-on experience shipping or integrating with MCP (Anthropic, OpenAI, Copilot, or Gemini flavours). • Strong TypeScript, comfortable across front-end (React) and server-side JavaScript, and the ability to read a Java backend even if you don't want to write one. • A track record of turning ambiguous partner signal into crisp engineering decisions that Product and Engineering acted on.

🏖️ Benefits

• 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
