Who we are

 
We are a software consultancy specialising in bringing companies and the open source software community together. We combine years of open source software leadership with an understanding of the challenges that businesses, non-profits, and governments face. We bring deep technical expertise in system integration & architecture, graphics, multimedia, web engines, and communications to a number of market verticals, including mobile, IVI / automotive, set-top box / smart TV, and a range of other specialised embedded applications.

Our Ideal Candidates

Our ideal candidates are highly passionate and motivated to work on Open Source Software projects, but are not experienced developers.  Candidates should:
  • Be fluent in written and spoken English
  • Have a demonstrable interest in the technology we work on.  We do not usually work on desktop, mobile or web applications themselves, but on the infrastructure supporting them, which involves one or more of the following technical areas: kernel, embedded, multimedia, graphics, XR, integration, packaging, web engines, system services, toolkits, and so on. A look through Collabora’s blog posts may give you a pretty good idea about what we work on https://www.collabora.com/news-and-blog/
  • Have skills in C programming, git, and also some familiarity with Rust.
  • Ideally be able to show existing contributions to any Open Source Software project, including participation in its community.
    • Candidates do not have to be students or recent graduates to apply.

  • Interviews for selected applicants will be conducted in May 2026.
  • Start dates will be September 2026 for a typical duration of 6 months.
  • You will be mentored by one or more of Collabora’s outstanding F/LOSS developers as part of one of our development teams
  • Collabora has offices in Cambridge, UK and Montreal, Canada, but even if you live in one of those cities, you will be working remotely from home
