About the Product Design team

One of the principles of our design team is to ‘show the future’. As designers we transport the rest of the company into a future we’re yet to build. A big part of the role of a product designer at Canva is to be a visionary—visualising and reinventing the future of design.

Product designers at Canva take the dream and make it something everyone can relate to and rally behind. We start from the very early stages: finding the right problem to tackle, exploring ideas for how to solve it and then refining it into a coherent solution. Our product designers carry out research, brainstorming, sketching, prototyping, and collaboration with our engineers to ship great products. We are empathetic user advocates and respect our users’ opinions through interviews, usability testing, and data analysis, as well as wireframing, flowcharting, and journey mapping to show the different stages that customers go through as they come into contact with Canva.

We have multiple teams hiring product designer, including Education, Video, Payments & Revenue, Onboarding & more...

A portfolio that demonstrates experience in product thinking where you have previously shipped UX/UI design for digital products.
You are a designer that is constantly inspired—motivating those around you through your passion and drive for what you do.
You are excited by regularly coming up with new ideas, shipping new products and features that address your users’ real needs.
You shine through your designs—creating user flows and wireframes that simplify user interactions
You are eager to visually communicate your ideas through prototypes to test with users.
You thrive in a collaborative workplace; partnering with other designers, engineers, product developers and other disciplines throughout the company.
You appreciate big picture thinking. While details are everything, creating an experience that always keeps our users in mind is equally as important.
