Ubuntu is the most widely used Linux in the enterprise, for developers, and at home. We work to enable innovation in all of those sectors, as a gateway to the huge world of open source. People love the ease of use and low cost that we have brought to enterprise Linux.

  • Help develop and evangelize great engineering and organizational practices

What we are looking for in you:

  • You have a strong experience in engineering and process management in an agile environment
  • You love developing and growing people and teams and have a track record of doing it
  • You have led successful compliance and certification efforts, understand well the process and stakeholders management required
  • You have knowledge or certification addressing industry standards such as ISO IEC 9001, 25010 and 15504 / SPICE
  • You worked on successful open source projects known for their demonstrated engineering processes

Additional Skills That You Might Also Bring:

  • Background as a software developer
  • Experience in establishing product engineering development metrics and KPIs
  • Strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills
