We are hiring an Engineering Manager for Ubuntu Hardware Certification Quality Engineering, to lead the team responsible for the test suites which validate hardware compatibility with Ubuntu Linux (Core, Desktop and Server – see https://ubuntu.com/certified for more information).

As the Engineering Manager of the Certification Quality team you’ll lead a dedicated testing team, shaping the vision and setting the pace, in collaboration with the rest of the Certification and hardware enablement teams. You will lead the certification test strategy for Canonical’s PC OEM and ODM partnerships, including Advantech, ASUS, Dell, HP, and Lenovo, deepening the test coverage for both new and existing certified hardware. You will pioneer the use of Canonical’s open source test frameworks and custom designed hardware to drive automated hardware validation of the operating system. This is a challenging position for a quality focused engineering leader, and requires an analytical mind with a passion for test automation and team leadership.
