The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with 1200+ colleagues in 75+ countries and very few office based roles. Teams meet two to four times yearly in person, in interesting locations around the world, to align on strategy and execution.
 
 
 The company is founder led, profitable and growing.
 
 
 We are hiring junior engineers to work across the breadth of our Ubuntu Engineering organisation - engineers who care deeply for quality, performance and resilience in software, engineers who are just as comfortable designing and engineering new software as they are packaging, integrating, testing and shipping the incredible catalog of open source software provided by the Ubuntu repositories.
 
 
 Our engineers integrate the freshest open source software, provide robust upgrade paths and engineer the future of Ubuntu. Ubuntu is not just the world's most deployed open source operating system, it's a platform that enables innovation for millions of users across the globe.
