Canonical

We provide open source solutions, publishing Ubuntu, an enterprise Linux operating system. Ubuntu runs across connected devices, public clouds, and workstations. Over 200,000 contributors globally support it. We deliver open source software designed for speed, security, and cost-effectiveness for businesses.

Our offerings cover various enterprise needs, including security research, open source solutions, and certified hardware. We offer services for infrastructure control to manage cloud costs and complexity, application modernization with secure containerized apps, and stacks optimized for data and AI. This includes supporting model training on public clouds, scaling on data centers, and MLOps. We also help deploy and secure IoT devices at the edge.

We offer full-stack security, support, and compliance through a reliable open source supply chain. An Ubuntu Pro subscription simplifies compliance and CVE management, providing 15 years of support. We also develop and contribute to other open source technologies, such as OpenStack and the Vanilla Framework CSS framework.

We partner with major cloud providers (AWS, Google Cloud, IBM, Azure, Oracle), silicon vendors (Nvidia, Intel, Qualcomm, AMD, Mediatek, ARM), and hardware manufacturers (Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, HP, Huawei, IBM, Lenovo, Supermicro) to deliver integrated solutions.

Our mission is to increase the impact of open source. We help people and organizations use its power to develop new products quickly and confidently. This includes powering self-driving cars and providing computing for scientific discovery. Our values reflect the generosity and collaboration found in open source:

• We are Adroit: Skillful, stylish, and adaptable, we approach our work with character, energy, and enthusiasm.
• We are Reliable: We prioritize trust, security, and quality in everything we do.
• We are Accessible: We are open to ideas and collaboration, and our products are affordable and easy to use.
• We are Precise: We are exact and careful about details, focusing on performance, correctness, and clarity.

We are a remote-first company with a globally distributed team of over 80 nationalities. Our work environment encourages collaboration, and teams meet biannually for in-person sprints for collective work and professional development. Our culture is performance-oriented, focusing on customer success, continuous learning, and growth. We encourage employees to contribute to the open source community through code reviews, issue tracking, and user interactions. We value skills over location.

We offer a performance-based annual bonus or commission, an annual compensation review, and localized compensation. We provide a learning and development budget of USD 2,000 per year and recognition rewards. Our benefits include annual holiday leave, maternity and paternity leave, and an Employee Assistance Program & Wellness Platform.

We offer opportunities to travel to new locations for our twice-yearly in-person team sprints. This includes Priority Pass and travel upgrades for longer company events. We have been a fully remote, distributed company since 2004.
