We work at the interface of hardware and software, so the ideal candidate is a Python developer familiar with hardware. The Certification team develops the tools needed to certify hardware as working with Ubuntu Core as well as Ubuntu Desktop and Server: We design hardware which can be used to probe devices independently, and frameworks for software tests that check every aspect of Ubuntu on that hardware. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to have a meaningful impact for adoption of Linux across multiple device categories and industries. Canonical offers a fun, fast-paced team environment and a career full of learning and development opportunities. This team is centered in EMEA time zones, and works with colleagues on related teams in both the Americas and APAC.

We seek out continuous process and tooling improvements as part of expanding the certification test suites, ultimately to improve the quality of Linux experience felt by millions of Linux end users. Key responsibilities Maintain and develop new features to our Python based test automation tools like Checkbox, used by both in-house teams and industry partners. Invent new ways to enable remote, automated testing. Help build the software counterpart to in-house designed testing hardware to help test device enablement (graphics, hotplug, bluetooth, etc). Write functional and performance tests to support hardware enablement and to protect from regressions. Participate in meetings involving international travel 2-3 times per year.
