Auckland, New Zealand Canva Full time

Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.

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:

This role will rely on your ability to act as a strategic thought leader for the Print group, using your inside data knowledge and the business performance to align with Print leadership on the best path forward for the Print business at Canva. You’ll be coaching a group of 6 data scientists and 1 analytics engineer, mentoring them in how to become business partners, instead of a service team of technical people.

The data challenges for Print are many, but include some incredibly exciting opportunities such as: providing smart routing for selecting the best print service partner, developing near real-time operations dashboards for the Operations team, developing pricing methodologies that allows for effective margins and discounting, advising our marketing team on how to personalize campaigns to drive Print revenue and engagement, and connecting the Print business to our Canva subscription business in a symbiotic manner.

Key responsibilities of the Data Science Lead include:

  • Being a strategic thought partner to the Print business and identifying opportunities for the team to leverage data to make better strategic decisions.
  • Coaching a team of Data Scientists and Analytics Engineers.
  • Driving the data strategy in the group and the product insights and experimentation strategy for the company, coordinating closely with the Product Leads and Engineering Leads.
  • Aligning senior stakeholders and demonstrating a real sense of drive and initiative to keep things moving.
  • Managing project intake, pipeline, prioritising, and managing staffing against key initiatives.
  • Utilising people skills to coordinate a team, align with stakeholders, and organise a data strategy.
  • Finding insights that help us understand both Canva and our customers.
  • Owning projects, data models, dashboards, and other artifacts, ensuring they are up-to-date and high quality.
  • Using our giant databases to answer complex questions effectively.

You're probably a match if:

  • Demonstrable experience leading data specialists, defining team strategy, and data roadmaps.
  • Experience with internal-facing data tooling at scale, including BI tools and experiment platforms.
  • Strong competency with SQL; experience with data warehouses such as Snowflake, Redshift, or BigQuery.
  • Experience with optimising product funnels, running experiments, and building dashboards.
  • Strong communication skills - verbal and written.
  • Proven track record of building out a data-driven culture.
  • Ability to drive alignment with disparate stakeholders.

About the team:

The Print Group is a growing, dynamic part of Canva, focused on making print easier, smarter, and more enjoyable for our users. You’ll lead talented analytics engineers and data scientists to build cutting-edge infrastructure that tracks every step of the print journey, from revenue to costs.

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 stack of benefits to set you up for every success in and outside of work.

Here's a taste of what's on offer:

  • Equity packages.
  • Inclusive parental leave policy.
  • An annual Vibe & Thrive allowance.
  • Flexible leave options.

Other stuff to know:

We make hiring decisions based on your experience, skills and passion. When you apply, please tell us the pronouns you use and any reasonable adjustments you may need during the interview process.

Please note that interviews are conducted virtually.
