Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets. Our platform, Ubuntu, is very widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation and IoT. Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors. The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with 1000+ colleagues in 70+ countries and very few office based roles. Teams meet two to four times yearly in person, in interesting locations around the world, to align on strategy and execution.
The company is founder led, profitable and growing.
We have created a new career path at Canonical for
Performance Engineers
who bring exceptional clarity to software performance, correctness and efficiency. We are adding these roles to every engineering team at the company.
As an open source platform, we have teams that work at every level of the software stack - from the kernel up through server and desktop applications, all the way to the web. We are adding roles with this focus in every engineering team in the company, to act as
drivers of performance engineering skills, tools, culture and insights to our entire product range
. We have also created a central performance engineering team, where we will drive shared tools, dashboarding capabilities, measurement frameworks, analytical capabilities and skills. We call this career focus '
percorr
' because we have found that the same deep insights that enable sophisticated performance measurement and design also enable teams to improve their harnesses and frameworks for correctness. Understanding not only the application, but the runtime, the compiler, and the system, all the way down to the CPU, gives an engineer the ability to think creatively and with insight about the right things to measure, and the right ways to verify correctness. We have found that performance engineers will often improve the deepest and trickiest areas of our test harnesses, and unblock their teams to test and measure previously 'dark' aspects of their work.
We also have teams that work with every major silicon vendor and cloud, with a particular emphasis on performance optimisation of the entire stack for that architecture, CPU family or hypervisor. Our goal is to ensure that Ubuntu users can select whatever platform they want for their workloads and know they have access to the very best performance and efficiency across the entire stack from kernel to codec.
If they wish, we will enable performance and correctness engineers to move between products every two years, so that they have the opportunity to raise the bar for performance in an array of products over time, and also that teams have the benefit of fresh eyes on their processes, thinking, harnesses, dashboards and code. Our performance and correctness leads are expected to be
truly exceptional individuals, and also leaders
who are confident setting expectations of change, sharing insights and skills, running initiatives and programs.
There is no way to move a meaningful codebase without also moving the people behind it.
This is a career path for perfectionists and precision artists. Whether you have a particular language focus - C, C++, Rust, Golang, Python, Java, Flutter-Dart or others - or a particular love of the kernel or hardware or CPU instruction set, whether you see yourself as driving perceived user experience through performance or optimising the efficiency of data centers to reduce carbon footprint, this process is the best way to find a role at Canonical that speaks to your precision, rigour, insight and drive.
Location
: We have teams in every time zone, and can accommodate applications from almost any country.
Nice-to-have skills we value
Low-level CPU insights and assembly language - understanding cache, registers, vectorization, memory
Kernel performance insights - scheduling, context switching, hardware acceleration
Distributed systems performance insights - tracing, debugging
Compiler level performance insights - profile guided optimization, inlining, assembler
Runtime performance insights - Golang, Python, JVM, NodeJS
Database performance evaluation - plans, indexing, data modelling, tracing, monitoring
Web browser performance insights - JS, web frameworks, tracing, CSS
Performance measurement tooling - profiling, eBPF, D-Trace, flamegraphs
Benchmarks and performance measurement tools - Phoronix Test Suite, others
Test harnesses and capabilities in C, C++, Rust, Python, Golang, NodeJS, JavaScript
The role entails
Drive software performance and correctness in a specific project
Collaborate with colleagues and community around the globe
Work on shared tools and infrastructure for performance measurement, analysis and reporting
Teach, train and develop skills in your team for performance culture and design
Strengthen test capabilities, harnesses and pipelines
Analyze systems and code to understand performance and scalability
Solve problems directly or through influence, leadership and skills development
Review code and technical designs
What we are looking for in you
Exceptional academic track record from both high school and university
Undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Mathematics or Physics
Demonstrable personal initiatives to measure and improve performance, efficiency and correctness in code
Confidence to respectfully speak up, exchange feedback, and share ideas without hesitation
Track record of going above-and-beyond expectations to achieve outstanding results
Leadership and commitment to skills development and mentorship
Passion for technology evidenced by personal projects and initiatives
The work ethic and confidence to shine alongside motivated colleagues
Professional written and spoken English with excellent presentation skills
Experience with Linux (Debian or Ubuntu preferred)
Excellent interpersonal skills, curiosity, flexibility, and accountability
Appreciative of diversity, polite and effective in a multi-cultural, multi-national organisation
Thoughtfulness and self-motivation
Result-oriented, with a personal drive to meet commitments
Ability to travel internationally twice a year, for company events up to two weeks long
What we offer colleagues
We consider geographical location, experience, and performance in shaping compensation worldwide. We revisit compensation annually (and more often for graduates and associates) to ensure we recognise outstanding performance. In addition to base pay, we offer a performance-driven annual bonus or commission. We provide all team members with additional benefits, which reflect our values and ideals.

At
Automattic
, we have the power to create opportunities for people in every corner of the earth. We offer flexible, challenging, and rewarding careers with true impact and scale. You could be on the outskirts of a jungle, living a nomadic life out of a van, in a major city or a small town that doesn’t have a central business district—as long as you have an active Wi-Fi connection, you can be an Automattician.
We’re seeking experienced Technical Account Managers to join our
Newspack
team—individuals who combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution, thrive on complexity, and believe in the power of collaborative problem solving.
This role requires someone who can think strategically and work independently while thriving in a highly collaborative team environment. You'll balance technical problem solving with relationship management, applying broad experience across multiple areas rather than deep expertise in just one. The Newspack platform and its applications are vast and continuously evolving—there's no way any one person can hold it all in their brain, which makes our team's collaborative approach essential to success.
This is a blended role that combines migration project management with ongoing publisher support. You'll typically manage multiple concurrent migration projects while also contributing to our shared support responsibilities, helping publishers optimize their use of Newspack post-launch. This balance ensures that you stay connected to both the launch experience and the long-term publisher relationship, providing you with insight into the full publisher lifecycle.
The role requires flexibility and strong organizational skills to shift context between project work and support work—between heads-down, independent tasks and collaborative team problem solving. If you thrive on variety and can maintain momentum across different types of work, you'll find this structure engaging and rewarding.
As a Newspack Technical Account Manager, You Will:
Manage publisher migrations from alignment through launch, owning timelines and coordinating a variety of stakeholders across technical and business requirements. You’ll proactively navigate obstacles, make strategic decisions about scope and priorities, and ensure successful outcomes even when facing unexpected challenges. Your project management will strike a balance between thoroughness and momentum, keeping complex initiatives moving forward while maintaining quality and meeting deadlines.
Develop close relationships with news publishers by understanding their business goals, operational needs, and technical challenges. You’ll troubleshoot technical and editor-facing issues as they arise, help publishers leverage and optimize Newspack's features, set realistic expectations that align with our scope of support, and proactively identify opportunities to drive customer success.
Maintain a deep and current knowledge of the Newspack platform, WordPress functionality, and the news publishing landscape. You’ll provide top-notch guidance to publishers, identify product improvement opportunities based on publisher needs, surface bugs and feature requests, and collaborate with engineering to resolve issues. Your closeness to publishers will make you a valuable voice in shaping the product’s evolution.
Work independently using existing resources to solve problems efficiently, while actively engaging with the team to share learnings, contribute to discussions, and drive continuous improvement. You’ll participate in our highly collaborative team culture: sharing unique solutions, seeking input on complex challenges, and contributing to the collective knowledge that helps all of us serve publishers better. This balance between autonomy and collaboration is crucial to our work approach.
Develop and refine project management, time management, and communication systems to work more effectively and efficiently. You’ll document solutions, identify patterns across projects that could inform process improvements, and contribute insights from your work to enhance our workflows, product features, and publisher success strategies.
In this role, success means:
Meeting launch timelines while maintaining quality and managing scope effectively.
Building strong publisher relationships that lead to successful long-term partnerships.
Responding to publisher needs and providing timely, effective support.
Thinking strategically about both individual projects and broader process improvements.
Collaborating openly with the team, sharing knowledge, and continuously learning.
Maintaining product expertise and contributing insights that improve Newspack for all publishers.
About you:
Solid working knowledge of
WordPress
core functionality, common plugins, and the WordPress ecosystem. (You don’t need to be a developer, but you should be comfortable troubleshooting WordPress sites and understanding how things work under the hood.)
Background in client services, account management, or technical support, where you’ve managed relationships and solved problems directly with customers.
Demonstrated ability to manage complex projects with multiple stakeholders, competing priorities, and dependencies—proactively, not just reactively.
Comfort with technical troubleshooting, investigating root causes, and finding creative solutions within constraints.
Clear, professional written and verbal communication skills; ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences and set appropriate expectations.
Benefits
Open vacation policy (no set number of days per year). We encourage all employees to take the time they need for vacation, to pursue their own interests, to stay healthy, and to spend time with friends and family.
Home office setup and coworking allowances. Working from a coffee shop? You can use your coworking allowance for the requisite latte!
We happily provide or reimburse the hardware and software you’ll need, as well as books or conferences that promote continued learning.
Company-sponsored life insurance.
Open parental leave (includes maternity, paternity, and adoption). If you’ve been with Automattic for 12 months, your leave is fully paid.
A spiffy set of wireless headphones at your seven-year anniversary.
Paid two to three-month sabbaticals encouraged every five years.
We cover all costs of company travel, so dust off that passport! Your team will get together one to three times per year in locations around the globe. Other benefits are country-specific and include health, vision, and dental insurance; matching retirement/pension contributions; childcare vouchers; income protection; travel insurance; and discount offers.
Salary range: $73,000-$130,000 USD
Please note that salary ranges are global, regardless of location, and we pay in local currency.
We’re only considering candidates based in North America at this time.
We are searching for high-caliber candidates with the skills and qualities to have a net positive for Automattic. Pay will reflect the potential contribution and the impact you can bring, which may, in some cases, go beyond the range stated.
This isn’t your typical work-from-home job—we are a fully-remote company with an open vacation policy. Read more about our
