Web Frontend Engineer

Job Description: Canonical is a leading provider of open-source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets. Our platform, Ubuntu, is very widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation and IoT. Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors.

The company is a pioneer of globally distributed collaboration, with 1100+ 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.

We are hiring a Web/UI Engineer to develop a data-rich and reliable user experience. These frontends are constructed using JS, CSS, React, and Flutter, and serve as Canonical's enterprise products that act as the company's face to our users.

In order to create consistency across our products and sites, we have a central team that builds an open-source React toolkit and presentation layer, the Vanilla Framework. We are excited to develop this further and see if we can help more open-source projects build performant and accessible interfaces that respond well to diverse layouts. We use REST APIs for communication, and we consider API design an important part of the process.

Flutter is a new front-end technology that has the potential to unify our desktop and web development. We are growing the team's exposure to Flutter and have roles on both web and Ubuntu engineering for this specialism.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

  • Design and implement well-tested and documented software in Web technologies or Flutter.
  • Debug and fix issues encountered by your users
  • Participate in our engineering process through code and architectural reviews
  • Collaborate with community and colleagues on technical specifications
  • Contribute to technical documentation to make it the best of its kind
  • Seek improvements to engineering and operations practices
  • Deploy and operate services developed by the team
  • Contribute to the success of your product through technical advocacy

Benefits:

  • Distributed work environment with twice-yearly team sprints in person
  • Personal learning and development budget of USD 2,000 per year
  • Annual compensation review
  • Recognition rewards
  • Annual holiday leave
  • Maternity and paternity leave
  • Employee Assistance Programme
  • Opportunity to travel to new locations to meet colleagues
  • Priority Pass, and travel upgrades for long-haul company events

About Us: Canonical is a pioneering tech firm at the forefront of the global move to open source.

We recruit on a global basis and set a very high standard for people joining the company. We expect excellence - in order to succeed, we need to be the best at what we do.
