Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors.

True Ownership: Manage your support cases with a strong sense of personal integrity, ensuring commitments are honored and customer expectations are communicated transparently and predictably. Ubuntu Lifecycle Guidance: Develop a rich understanding of the Ubuntu development process, empowering you to give customers clear, human context regarding timelines for engineering fixes. Knowledge Advocacy: Author and maintain accessible knowledge base articles, ensuring lessons learned are shared openly to elevate the entire open-source community. Operational Reliability: Participate in a regular weekend working rotation to maintain seamless, high-touch continuity of care for our global partners. What are we looking for in you Communication Excellence: Exceptional written and spoken English, with a natural ability to convey technical complexity clearly, warmly, and compellingly. The Soft-Skill Edge: A genuine passion for helping people, paired with the emotional intelligence to navigate high-stakes technical situations with composure and empathy. Academic Dedication: Exceptional academic track record from both high school and university. Educational Background: An undergraduate degree in a technical subject or a compelling narrative about your alternative chosen path. Driven Mindset: A proven track record of going above-and-beyond expectations to deliver meaningful, outstanding results for teams or customers. Linux & Cloud Familiarity: Practical, hands-on experience supporting Linux systems, with an exposure to three or more of the following: Virtualization & Cloud: Using KVM or OpenStack. Containers: primarily Docker, LXD/LXC, or Kubernetes. Storage Ecosystems: Block, object, and network storage technologies.
