• Building alignment and trust: Facilitate delivery conversations between Product, Sales, Engineering, Ops, and PMM.

• Establishing clarity: Introduce program governance, delivery confidence reporting, and standardised ways of working across cross-group initiatives.

• Mentoring others: Support and upskill TPMs in planning, execution, and cross-group collaboration.

About Technical Program Managers

As a Technical Program Manager, it is your mission to work closely with senior managers and product development teams to build a sustainable culture of positive urgency in delivery. You will lead complex, multi-disciplinary programs and be equally comfortable working with leadership to set strategic goals and clarify priorities, as you are with teams to communicate program status, escalate issues and manage dependencies as you are navigating technical trade-offs with an engineer.

You’ll work across both the B2B program an area central to Canva's strategic priorities and increasingly shaped by AI innovation. In B2B, you’ll partner with leadership to operationalise enterprise delivery, align customer commitments with product delivery, and streamline internal and external facing delivery reporting.

You’ll be a delivery expert, a strategic partner, an essential coordinator, and a craft leader for other TPMs.
