Graduate Software Engineer

Drive the future of collaborative open source development tooling as part of the Launchpad team.

This is an opportunity for a motivated engineer with a passion for open source software, Linux, and web services to join our distributed team.

Launchpad is a platform for managing open source development projects. It includes code hosting and review, bug tracking, package building, translations, and other facilities used by free and open source software developers. It provides essential development and collaboration infrastructure for major projects such as Ubuntu.

Launchpad is a mature project, mainly written in Python (primarily Zope, with some Flask). You'll be striking a balance between keeping our business-critical services running and expanding our feature set: among other things, we are currently working on expanding our package building capabilities, improving the development flows provided to our users, and modernising our web UI. If you love keeping large projects well-organised and well-maintained, care about supporting developers, and believe that continuous improvement is the key to innovation, higher velocity, and reliability, you'll fit right in.

Build a rewarding, meaningful career working with the best and brightest people in technology at Canonical, a growing international software company.
