An exceptional opportunity for an ambitious and competitive robotics technology leader.
If you have a passion for tech and business, deep familiarity with the open source stack from Linux to Github, and awareness of open source community leadership and best practices, then you will love the product leadership team at Canonical.
ROS, and software more broadly, is the key ingredient for differentiation in the robotics market. Computer vision, navigation, voice processing, safety, machine learning and sensor processing are all software-defined capabilities that are must-haves in new robotic products. Canonical’s Ubuntu is the platform of choice for robotics entrepreneurs and innovators. We have created a dedicated role to lead our products in the field of robotics, shaping the experience of researchers, product creators and those who operate fleets of robots.
This role requires an analytical storyteller with a strong sense of message. We prefer graduate professionals with software engineering management experience who want to become business executives and entrepreneurs, to define product strategy and drive engagement.
Product leadership at Canonical is data-driven and content-centric. Product performance is closely measured and this team participates in regular reviews with company leadership.
You will join a growing team and help shape the message across our suite of products. You will create effective content to engage sophisticated technical and commercial audiences, and work closely with marketing, media, engineering, sales, research, consulting, and training teams.
You will be accountable for product go-to-market execution, marketing collateral, case studies, training, and blog posts. You will be expected to deliver measurable lead-gen and awareness.
