Where and how you can work
The buzzing Canva London campus features several buildings around beautiful leafy Hoxton Square in Shoreditch. While our global headquarters is in Sydney, Australia, London is our HQ for Europe, with all kinds of teams based here, plus event spaces to gather our team and communities.

That said, we trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals and so you have choice in where and how you work.
What you'd be doing in this role
As Canva scales change continues to be part of our DNA. But we like to think that's all part of the fun. So 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:
- Act as the escalation point for security & privacy incidents across Canva's systems.
- Actively respond to security events from detection through to resolution, including the rollout of solutions and mitigations to prevent a recurrence.
- Actively monitor Canva's internal and production systems for possible attacks and intrusions.
- Proactively run threat detection exercises and search for anomalous behavior.
- Build out and develop the tools and foundations for security incident alerting, management, communication, and response.
- Maintain incident response documentation, participate in post incident reviews, and contribute to incident reports.
- Participate in the on-call roster for security incident response.
- Assist in the promotion of a security mindset and the establishment of best practices with across a wide range of security areas: secure development, cryptography, network security, security operations, and incident response.
- Identify trends, research, new technologies, and emerging threats models, which may impact the business.
- Contribute to projects that enhance the security positioning of the business.
You're probably a match if
- You have a curious detective mindset and be driven to solve ambiguous problems with simple solutions.
- You bring proven experience in Security - Engineering, Operations, Incident Response, Analysis, or Threat Research.
- You have sound knowledge of web protocols, networks, common attacks, and a working knowledge of Linux/Unix tools and architecture.
- You had prior exposure to the cloud. Ideally AWS or GCP but Azure would be completely fine.
- You have strong documentation, communication, and stakeholder management skills; the ability to work alongside technical and non-technical colleagues.
- You have the ability to prioritize multiple tasks and projects in a dynamic environment.
