We are hiring a Sales Director, ISV Embedded Solutions in various locations to drive partnerships for licensing and embedding Ubuntu and Ubuntu Pro into software and SaaS solutions.

Canonical supports ISV customers and alliances in building on Ubuntu and Ubuntu Pro, which helps them deliver fast, reliable, secure, compliant and consistent solutions.

We offer the world’s most extensive base of open source software, backed by comprehensive SLA support, FIPS-certified cryptographic compliance, and security commitments that meet HIPAA and FedRAMP standards. We are the top-rated operating system for developers. Partnering with every major public cloud provider, we ensure Ubuntu is optimized and seamlessly integrated with their unique services, making it easier for ISVs to deploy solutions confidently across multi-cloud environments. Additionally, we collaborate with leading server manufacturers, IoT providers, and silicon vendors to enable, optimize, and certify Ubuntu on their hardware. This makes Ubuntu an exceptional choice for ISVs selling physical appliances or traditional software solutions.
