Seattle, Washington, United States ZipRecruiter Full time

Unlock your full potential as a Lead Linux Software Engineer for Global IoT Solutions with Canonical. We're on the forefront of the global move to open source, and we need talented individuals like you to help us drive innovation.

As a Senior Embedded Linux Software Engineer, you'll work across the full Linux stack from kernel through GUI to optimize Ubuntu, the world's most widely used Linux desktop and server, for the latest silicon. This is a fast-paced, problem-solving role that's challenging yet very exciting.

  • Help our customers integrate their apps, SDKs, build device OS images, optimize applications with Ubuntu Core, Desktop, and Server
  • Work with the most advanced operating systems and application technologies available in the enterprise world.

What makes this job stand out? The ability to work on cutting-edge projects with top-notch engineers from around the globe. And, of course, the chance to shape the future of technology and make a real impact.
