Senior Web Engineer at Canonical

This role is designed for an experienced engineer with a strong academic background and a deep proficiency in the Linux ecosystem, specifically Ubuntu or Debian. The ideal candidate is a proactive technical leader who can balance high-level architectural design with hands-on code reviews and mentorship.
