About the role
Product Management at Canonical is a nexus between the various parts of the company — the CEO, engineering, marketing, sales, field sales, support — and the various audiences that use, contribute to, influence and commercially interact with the open source products under your stewardship.
We delight in showing that we can engineer growth in engagement, awareness, consumption and commerce just as effectively as our colleagues in software development engineer reliability and performance in our products. We're a tiny company in an industry of giants, so we have always punched way above our weight and that's exactly what we expect from new members of the team too.
As product manager, you are a representative of Canonical and you are an advocate of our brands and products. We all work together across the full portfolio — you are expected to understand the big picture of how Canonical's products fit together, there are no siloes. These are not behind-the-scenes roles, they are public leadership roles. We expect our team to be just as comfortable delivering our message online as they are face to face at meetups, meetings, conferences, partner workshops or press events. This team is all about the excellence, quality and thought-leadership required to put us squarely into the frame for companies thinking afresh about their biggest technology questions.
You are customer obsessed. You over-communicate strategy and vision. You are strategic and tactical. You use data and your intuition to make decisions. You love sharing ideas, information and enthusiasm. You partner with and influence the entire organisation — and are passionate about the future of technology.
