Canonical Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Canonical Riyadh, Saudi Arabia Posted: 28 Feb 2025
Canonical is a leading provider of open-source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets. Our platform, Ubuntu, plays a key role in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation, and IoT. Canonical is a pioneer of globally distributed collaboration, with 1100+ colleagues in over 75 countries, and very few office-based roles. Teams meet two to four times yearly in person to align on strategy and execution.
We are hiring a Web/UI Engineer to develop a data-rich and reliable user experience. The frontends you will create using JS, CSS, React, and Flutter will represent Canonical’s enterprise products. To maintain a consistent experience across our products and sites, a central team builds an open-source React toolkit and presentation layer, known as the Vanilla Framework.
We are looking to expand our team's exposure to Flutter, a new front-end technology that unifies desktop and web development. We seek developers with an exceptional academic background and a strong passion for open-source software, innovation, and cutting-edge web technologies.
In this role, you will be expected to make significant contributions through high-quality front-end and back-end code while demonstrating technical leadership and creating intuitive user experiences. You will also be encouraged to engage with the broader open-source community, build a vibrant community, contribute to various technologies, and ensure seamless software operations at scale.
