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. We also have a campus in Melbourne and co-working spaces in Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. But 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.

About the role

This is not a SEO marketing role. 

The Programmatic SEO (PSEO) Product Manager will lead product strategy and delivery for our programmatic SEO Insights Service – a system designed to drive scalable growth through automation, advanced insights, and experimentation. This includes shaping capabilities for large-scale content and page generation, discovery of high-value opportunities, and enabling global expansion at speed - across 40+ languages.

• Lead programmatic SEO strategy and execution for some of Canva’s most important logged-out growth surfaces, ensuring these areas continue to scale sustainably and drive measurable impact.

• Accelerate large-scale page launches and identify opportunities to expand into new high-value markets, topics, and content categories.

• Scale and prioritise automation systems that power programmatic SEO, enabling smaller organic growth teams to achieve disproportionately large results.

• Collaborate closely across functions including SEO, engineering, content, platform infrastructure, marketplace, and product surface teams to deliver aligned, high-quality outputs.

• Advance AI-driven content workflows to improve efficiency, quality, and experimentation velocity in programmatic SEO.

• Strengthen international growth capabilities by ensuring automation systems can support localisation and market-specific needs at scale.

You're probably a match if

• You’re a Senior Product Manager with experience in infra, ML platforms, and with a strong systems-level thinking.

• You have deep curiosity about experimentation, automation, and search trends.

• You don’t need to be an SEO expert – we have that covered – but must know how to lead complex workflows across Machine Learning/Engineering/SEO/Content.

• You are analytical and love diving into data (Bonus: familiarity with SEO tools and platforms)

• You thrive on collaborating with cross-functional and international stakeholders

• You have prior experience in process mapping and optimization

• You have a persistent desire to leverage automation and machine learning to do things more efficiently

• You have a growth mindset and value detail as much as the big picture. You thrive in a collaborative fast-paced environment, working together with a diverse set of stakeholders from SEO to Design, Marketing and Engineering, to figure out how we can multiply the impact of every organic growth strategy across surfaces and end to end user funnels. 

• You consider yourself a strong all-rounder; data, research, strategy, product mock-ups - whatever it's, you can comfortably wear the hat
