Job Description
Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.
Servus, hey, g'day, mabuhay, 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
Our flagship campus is in Sydney, Australia but Austria is home to part of our European operations. And you have choice in where and how you work, we trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals.
Fun fact, a big part of our Austrian operations is developing the AI product within Canva to help reimagine how artificial intelligence can be used in design. Pretty cool ha!
What you’d be doing in this role
As Canva scales, change continues to be part of our DNA. This will give you the flavour of the type of things you'll be working on when you start, but this will likely evolve.
At the moment, this role is focused on:
* Build ML models for AI-based photo editing, staying up-to-date with the literature and evaluating state-of-the-art models applicable for commercial use.
* Take over project ownership responsibilities and drive projects with specialties like Frontend and Backend to success, involving ownership of project timeline, and collaboration with Design and Product.
* Stay up-to-date with recent advances in AI for photo editing, bringing new ideas to the team for AI-based features.
* Improve the quality of existing features by enhancing quality evaluation processes and introducing new ML ideas.
* Boost efficiency of existing features through code optimization, incorporating new models or Python libraries, or re-evaluating our full stack.
* Collect data for model training or evaluation, or delegate that to the Data Labelling team.
You're probably a match if
* You have a strong foundation in Computer Science, focusing on machine learning & ideally published papers in peer-reviewed journals and conferences.
* You have a solid understanding of computer vision, especially the concepts of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), transformers, generative adversarial networks, and diffusion models.
* You are proficient with Deep learning frameworks (Pytorch is a bonus, alternatively other frameworks like Tensorflow or JAX), Python 3, Numpy, OpenCV, Docker & Kubernetes.
* You can quickly pick up knowledge of the state-of-the-art of a specific ML topic, as most projects start with literature research and communicating the context to the team.
* You have a deep understanding of machine learning at scale, including training sophisticated models on big datasets and deploying these models on cloud platforms.
* You have a demonstrable sense of ownership and are eager to develop novel solutions to challenging problems, such as developing ML models for processing large images efficiently.
* You are an excellent communicator and teammate, keen to collaborate with colleagues and brainstorm ideas together.
When applying, please describe your experience and achievements in product development, highlighting aspects you find most engaging. Additionally, explain why you are interested in applying to Canva and this specific position.
