Security Engineering Internship
Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.
Hey, g'day, mabuhay, kia ora, 你好, hallo, vítejte!
We’re looking for the next generation of Canvanauts!
Our Canva internship is a 12-week remote friendly program that runs from the last week of November to the last week of February. There will also be an opportunity to meet your team in person at our flagship campus in Sydney to experience all the magic of Canva in real life. So your summer time is sorted.
As an Intern, you'll have the opportunity to work on real-life projects from start to finish. Along with this, we'll pair you with a Host and assign you a Buddy who will ensure your success every step of the intern journey. Think of them as your own personal intern tour guides.
You’ll be part of a welcoming and inclusive Early Talent community of peers that take pride in Canva’s culture of being good humans and empowering each other to achieve our big goals.
Where and how you can work
Our flagship campus is in Sydney, Australia. We also have a campus in Melbourne and co-working spaces in Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. If you call New Zealand home, we have our Auckland co-working space too.
But you have choice in where and how you work. That means if you want to do your thing in the office (if you're near one), at home or a bit of both, it's up to you.
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:
• Collaborating with your assigned team to design, develop, test and maintain your intern project
• Developing your craft with some of the most talented engineers
• Interacting with a wide variety of stakeholders from both inside and outside your team
You're probably a match if
• You are a penultimate-year student based in Australia (citizen, PR, international student), or New Zealand (citizen).
• You have excellent Computing and Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) Fundamentals.
• You are comfortable working in Python.
• You have an interest and passion for cyber security.
• You have development experience in Python or Golang would be favourable.
• You are able to commit to the 12-week, full-time summer program from the last week of November to the last week of February. (We can provide some flexibility for dates that might overlap with university timelines).
About the team
Incoming interns will work and learn alongside an experienced group of blue-team Security Engineers in a fast-moving cloud-first technology environment. They will be exposed to a wide range of functions within the diverse Security group and gain experience in both operations and engineering capacities and work towards making Canva more secure.
