Ubuntu Linux Kernel Engineer - Silicon Enablement at Canonical

This role is ideal for C programmers with a deep interest in low-level systems engineering and hardware enablement. While direct Linux kernel experience is a major plus, the team is open to engineers coming from RTOS or bare-metal backgrounds, provided you have a strong grasp of device drivers and Board Support Packages (BSPs). It is a mid-level to senior opportunity suited for those who enjoy working at the intersection of software and silicon. The position offers complete geographic flexibility as part of a long-standing remote-first culture. You will work directly with major silicon vendors like NVIDIA and Qualcomm to optimize Ubuntu for their chips. Notable perks include a $2,000 annual professional development budget, performance-based bonuses, and twice-yearly international travel for team "sprints." **You might be a good fit if you...** * Are highly proficient in C and have experience with git and hardware-level debugging. * Want to work on high-impact projects that influence the performance of global SoC families. * Thrive in an autonomous, remote environment but enjoy traveling twice a year for intense collaboration. * Have a background in Linux kernel patching, Python scripting, or Debian packaging.
