Zero to trillions: how we scaled our data platform to meet Canva's growth in data and teams

Jose is a data engineer who loves building solutions that will enable the business to make better decisions. He has been working with data for several years now, and now working on building a modern data platform that will empower Canva to the next level.

Krishna loves data, data platforms, and analytics engineering. His experience has seen him do everything from building ERP applications, testing, marketing analytics, leading teams, and building and supporting data platforms. What he’s passionate about is delivering analytics use cases inside and outside the organisation and empowering teams to do their best work.

Canva is growing fast, and with that comes a much higher volume and variety of data. In conjuction with this, Canva's data specialty teams are growing too. In this talk, Jose and Krishna will share how they addressed the challenges that come about with growth, the missteps, the course corrections and what they have planned next.
