Data & Analytics
Empower Canva to make better decisions. More often. Using data, we can deliver critical insight to product, design, and engineering leadership to ensure we’re making the right decisions for our millions of users.
How our data team works
Data is playing an increasing role across all areas of Canva. Whether you’re involved in machine learning, product analytics or data infrastructure, you’ll work on a small and empowered team and have a huge impact on our growing products.
It’s all about prioritising and thinking creatively about what projects we should be working on next. At Canva we always try to make sure there’s a strong match between your projects and your interests.
We’ve started a lot of exciting projects, but there’s just so much scope in terms of future development.

Why Canva is a good place to be a data scientist
When we perform experiments, we can expect improvements in an order of magnitude that’s not possible at a larger company. Anyone coming into a data scientist or machine learning role at Canva can have a massive impact. It’s an exciting product, and from an engineering perspective we have a lot of cool toys to play with!

In terms of the take-home challenge, just be really good at the fundamentals and make sure you can do engineering around that. We’re not going to be mean to you!
