We're here to decarbonize the built environment. We hope you'll consider joining us.

CANOA brings interior design tools to the internet for the first time. Our easy-to-use app allows designers to discover, collaborate, plan and purchase all in one simple marketplace. We built CANOA around a few principles: enable great design to come to life, and do it while protecting our planet’s precious natural resources. We've filled our marketplace with both new and second-hand products to ensure that designers have access to amazing products that won't leave a lasting impact on our environment.

We're a multi-disciplinary, diverse team and we're excited to add new team members who add to that diversity. Wherever you're from, whoever you love, whatever your skin color - we're into it. Please apply.
