This role is ideal for a technically proficient professional who bridges the gap between software engineering and community management. While they are hiring across multiple levels, the ideal candidate has a deep background in the open-source ecosystem, specifically with Linux/Ubuntu. You should have a public track record of technical advocacy, such as blog posts, conference talks, or GitHub contributions, and understand the unique dynamics of managing volunteer developers. The position offers absolute location flexibility as a fully remote, global role. Standout perks include a $2,000 annual professional development budget, performance-based bonuses, and twice-yearly in-person team "sprints" at various locations worldwide. It’s a high-impact "scale" project where you aren't just doing the work, but designing the programs that allow the Ubuntu community to thrive. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have experience with Ubuntu Linux (kernel or userspace), DevOps, or container technology. * Are comfortable navigating Discourse, Matrix, and developer tools to engage with users. * Can manage complex technical programs from conception through launch. * Enjoy public speaking and representing technical projects at global conferences.
