• Leading mobile engineers in building effective, efficient components that strengthen Canva’s mobile platform support.

• Defining, improving, and codifying best practices and methodologies that set the standard for mobile engineering excellence at Canva.
• Championing knowledge sharing across mobile teams, fostering a culture of learning, and supporting engineers at all levels in their growth.
