Canonical is a prominent provider of open source software and operating systems, widely recognized for our Ubuntu platform used in various enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, and IoT. With over 1000 colleagues across 70+ countries, we prioritize global collaboration and have minimal office-based roles. Teams gather in unique locations two to four times a year to align on strategy and execution. As a founder-led, profitable, and growing company, we are committed to innovation.

We are seeking a software developer to enhance dqlite, our distributed SQLite database that utilizes our proprietary Raft library for consensus and replication. Dqlite is available as a pure C library and through a maintained Go package, with plans for Python and other language bindings.

You will design and implement improvements to the libraft, dqlite, and go-dqlite components, which are utilized in MicroK8s, LXD, and other projects. Your work will include software development, addressing user issues, and responding to inquiries.

This role presents an excellent opportunity for those looking to make a significant impact on modern computing technologies. Canonical provides a fast-paced team environment with ample learning and development opportunities.
