Join the team that is building a trusted internet for Canadians! CIRA is best known for managing the system that keeps more than 3 million .CA domains running as smooth as maple syrup, but we do so much more to help Canadians thrive on the internet.

Whether it's our cybersecurity products that protect Canadians online, our advocacy work that fights for better internet, or our Net Good Grants that supports hundreds of community-led internet projects across Canada—we work every day to keep the internet strong and free. Join us!

Who we are:

We are a not-for-profit, purpose-driven organization with a dynamic team that helps shape the internet in Canada. Our team is full of high performers and creative thinkers who come to work every day and ask, "What more can we do?” because they believe in the CIRA mission to build a trusted internet for Canadians. It is our team and our mission that has led CIRA to be named one of the National Capital Region's Top Employer for eight years in a row.

At CIRA, we value the importance of connection and flexibility for our team. That's why we have a hybrid model in place, with a mix of remote and IRL (in real life) days in our beautiful office at Lansdowne Park, in Ottawa. CIRA IRL days are any days that a CIRA teammate will be in person for a CIRA-related activity. In addition to having opportunities to connect, collaborate and work alongside your team and other business units, we frequently host team building, wellness and social events!
