StaffSoftwareEngineer-MobilePlatform

Join the team redefining how the world experiences design. Hey, g'day, 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 Collingwood is home to our Melbourne campus - a vibrant, creative hub for connection and impactful work. While Sydney is home to our HQ, Melbourne brings its own unique vibe, with local artwork, lush greenery, and thoughtfully designed spaces to help you collaborate, focus, and feel part of a welcoming community. This role is based in Melbourne, and we’re looking for someone who calls it home. Our hybrid way of working gives you the flexibility to work remotely, and to come together on campus for meaningful in-person collaboration and connection when it matters most. What you'd be doing in this role Mobile Platform owns how Canva runs on iOS and Android, and the portable libraries layer is one of the most technically interesting pieces of the mobile bet. Every product team at Canva builds on top of what this group ships. Write the foundational libraries once, in a performant system language, and run them everywhere. Rust and C are on the table. The interface, the safety model, and the ergonomics for engineers consuming them across every runtime are the open problems. The strategic bet is a hybrid stack with React Native at its core, supported by a set of portable libraries that run across iOS, Android, and web from a single codebase. This role sits at the heart of the portable libraries work. Hundreds of millions of users open Canva on a phone or tablet, and the libraries you build will run underneath every one of them. There's a second reason this work matters now. This is where deep mobile expertise meets systems programming. Not many engineers operate at that intersection. The ones who do shape how products like Canva get built for the next decade. .At the moment, this role is
