When I first started out with Ubuntu I provided user support in the forums and on IRC for both Ubuntu itself and many of the applications available with it. I enjoyed working in the community and this helped me to decide that what I really wanted to do in my career was work a lot more with Ubuntu. At the time of writing I have worked for Canonical for a total of three years and I have worn many hats during that time. I started off managing the delivery of the Ubuntu TV demos for CES and MWC in 2012. I worked with the design team, the Unity 2D team (as was) and we put together a great product demo, which is sadly yet to see the light of day - but I'm hopeful that it still will. For the last year I have been managing the Desktop team. This involves aligning the team's priorities with the overall direction of Ubuntu. I regularly write about our teams work on Google+ and make sure that the community have access to all the latest goings on within our team. Track lead at UOS for the last two |
