You will have the opportunity to do meaningful work and help build features and functionality that impacts millions of users around the world. Data Analytics at Canva is all about understanding our product and customers so that we can anticipate their needs and provide the best possible product for them.

What you'll do

  • Help us understand both Canva and our customers - we want you to be creative and insightful, rather than just throwing the usual metrics at the wall to see what sticks.
  • Suggest, set up, and run interesting experiments that will actually move our metrics - when we push tests to 100% we want to actually see the bump in the relevant metrics.
  • Work alongside other data analysts, software engineers, and product managers to build up your mental model of how our product works and how people are using it.
  • Build and maintain data models in our data warehouse.
  • Analyse A/B tests to uncover the best way forward for our product.
  • Create predictive models that can help us understand where we're headed.

This will be perfect for you if you:

  • Are currently within 12-18 months of completing a Bachelor's or Master's degree (or at any stage in your Ph.D.) in a STEM area or have completed IT/Data-related certifications.
  • Have experience wrangling and analyzing data using Python or R.
  • Have strong competency with SQL; experience with big data SQL.
  • Have strong communication skills and are able to break down complex topics into simple solutions and ideas.
  • Are available to do the 12-week internship program from early December 2021 to late February 2022. We are able to adjust this slightly depending on your university course load on a case-by-case basis.

We ensure that the Canva workspace is set up for you to do your best work and have a great time doing so, with breakout areas, little nooks, quiet places to retreat.

We have three in-house chefs that whip up amazing breakfasts and lunches for the whole team, check out what's cooking at: https://www.instagram.com/canvalife/

Love 85-90% of the work I get to do. 10-15% less enjoyable bureaucracy / 'keeping the lights on' work that is required.

As a backend engineer, I mainly work closely with maintaining the server, including the interaction with the database and cache. I also apply software development techniques when writing code.

I am currently working as an Associate Machine Learning Engineer. My responsibility includes maintaining existing deployed ML models in Canva and developing new ones to help users get a better experience. Sometimes it involves some data analysis as well as research.

Pros and cons of working at Canva

Pros

  • The culture and work-life balance at Canva is amazing! It helps me unlock my full working potential as I am encouraged to work at my own pace and to the best of my comfort.

  • Work hours are flexible as you can work at your own pace which boosts your efficiency the most. You can work fully remotely or in the office depending on your choice.

  • I get to work with very talented people and solve interesting problems at scale.

  • Free food, club activities, and events can sometimes seem too good to be true. Additionally, the company is flexible and trusting of different working schedules.

  • The company is extremely committed to diversity.

Cons

    • If you live in an area that does not have a hub or office, there will be less interaction unless you go to the office. This makes it hard for people to network and meet up regularly.

    • Working at a large company often means you specialise in a narrow set of tools, which can limit your exposure compared to working at a smaller startup.

    • Can be a fast-paced, stressful environment when launches are approaching.

    • Currently, I think my daily job involves much busy work without much time to understand the context.

    • Being remote first, although this is another really great benefit, I sometimes wish I could see my teammates more in person.
