- Great project management and account management skills with the ability to drive critical workflows to deliver real value to the business.

With 800 professionals across 60+ countries our goal is to be the world's best, not biggest, global software company. Fully remote from day one, Canonical sets the pace on the 21st-century digital workplace, with entirely remote design, development and operations.
