About the Group/Team
The Ecosystem group contributes to Canva's growth towards 1 billion users by creating an abundant app ecosystem that tailors to the diverse needs of our users across all demographics. The role will lead a team that will build out our new Apps API capabilities.
We aim to build the world's richest Ecosystem of apps and integrations for visual design and communications that supercharge Canva's ability to meet the diverse needs of a billion users and drive Canva's MAU growth.
Our Apps platform launched in June 2023 with the vision of enabling app developers to expand core design capabilities with the most innovative and useful apps. It has since rapidly grown to over 400 apps used 2 billion times in 2024 with a diverse range of innovative generative AI apps, design utilities, and integrations to popular SaaS products.
This team builds API capabilities for the apps platform, exposing core product features to thousands of app developers.
About the Role/Specialty
The Apps API team consists of 6-8 engineers focusing on a variety of APIs including Design Interaction, Data Connectors, User, and many more.
As the team lead, you will be responsible for driving the product direction, providing technical guidance to the team, growing engineers, and collaborating with cross-functional leaders on roadmap goals and milestones. You will also work closely with external partners to ensure consistency across Canva's public API surface areas.
A unique opportunity in this role is that the customers are developers, which means Canva engineers can bring insights into our product roadmap.
What you'll do (responsibilities):
- Lead and coach a team of 6-8 engineers focused on building the Apps API capabilities.
- Accountable for team delivery and ongoing delivery improvements.
- Partner with Product to shape our roadmap, balancing product outcomes with pragmatic technical excellence.
- Contribute to the technical strategy by representing one of three Apps platform teams in the larger Ecosystem group.
- Seek exciting opportunities to improve the general experience of building apps using our developer platform.
- Be a hands-on leader contributing directly to progressing goals with code.
What we're looking for:
- A technical and people leader - having led high-performing teams where everyone can share their best ideas and be their best selves.
- Understanding of the product life cycle, features, technical debt, QA, and supporting quality at speed.
- Ability to know when to push back, shielding the team from disruptions, and providing a safe environment that helps to bring clarity.
- Comfortable working in our environment - our core stack is React/Typescript frontend, with a Microservices Java backend.
- A passion for coaching people and developing a culture that enables teams to be their best.
- Ability to work with a diverse range of individuals from different backgrounds and with different professional and personal needs.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills to manage stakeholders and communicate effectively across other groups.
- Leading by example - promoting Canva's values, no-blame mentality, and inclusive culture.
What will you learn and how will you develop at Canva:
- Through a culture of continuous feedback, you will grow along the 4 Canva pillars: Craft, Communication, Strategy, and Leadership.
- Work with your coach to define personal growth goals that will allow you to make an impact and contribute to Canva's success consistently.
