Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets. Our platform, Ubuntu, is widely used in enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation and IoT. Our customers include leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors. The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with 1000+ colleagues in 70+ countries and very few roles based in offices.

They are the secret to our success! We look for confident and effective people who have good judgement and the self-assurance to hold firm on a policy regardless of the seniority of the other party. If you like to take responsibility and you like to ensure that things are done properly and efficiently, you will enjoy the role.
