Ubuntu Security Engineer at Canonical

This role is ideal for security-minded engineers who are passionate about open-source software and the Linux ecosystem. While the listing notes a mid-level seniority, the team is open to candidates ranging from high-potential graduates to seasoned seniors. You should have a deep understanding of common security vulnerabilities (CVEs) and be proficient in languages like C, Python, Go, or Rust to audit and patch code effectively. The most standout feature is the truly "borderless" remote culture; you can work from nearly anywhere in the world. Canonical offers a structured career path with annual compensation reviews and a $2,000 yearly professional development budget. You’ll also benefit from unique travel opportunities, meeting your global colleagues in person twice a year at international "sprints" with travel perks like Priority Pass. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have experience auditing source code and fixing vulnerabilities in a Linux environment (Debian/Ubuntu preferred). * Are comfortable with coordinated disclosure practices and engaging with upstream open-source communities. * Possess the self-discipline to thrive in a 100% distributed, asynchronous work environment. * Are proficient in at least one major programming language used in system-level or web development.
