Smart Network Interface Cards (Smart NICs, including DPU, IPU, etc) are getting more functionality and processing power to offload more complex and diverse workloads from the host: networking, storage and security. Simultaneously, switching and routing network equipment running proprietary network operating systems (NOS) tends to be replaced by whitebox hardware capable of running Linux-based NOS. These changes are prompted by datacenter architecture scalability and composability challenges as well as ever growing performance requirements. In the process, the industry requires a reliable, open and easy to use operating system to host these functionalities and workloads. Linux is ideally positioned as a kernel, especially with real-time extensions, and as a platform for this ecosystem. Leveraging and complementing Ubuntu, Ubuntu Core, OpenStack, Kubernetes and Juju, Canonical is creating a line of products and services that address primary challenges such as security, device management and orchestration between the Smart NIC, its host, Top of the Rack switches and gateways. This role encompasses leadership of the product and go-to-market in the Smart NIC and ToR switches sector.

It's 3:17 PM. A daughter just hit "send."

She hasn't spoken to her mom in months.

Her flowers will arrive in 3 hours, and say everything she can't.

This happens thousands of times a day - because of us.

Blossom Flower Delivery isn't just an eCommerce company. We're in the business of delivering emotions at scale.

Our product isn't flowers. It's reconnection, redemption, celebration, and forgiveness - in the form of petals, color, and care.

From the Founder: Read This Before You Apply

"I built this company because I believe technology should make people feel something, not just buy something.

We're moving fast. There are no training wheels here.

If you need hand-holding or you're waiting for life to settle down, this won't work.

But if you live for ownership, urgency, and impact - and you see product as art + commerce + emotion - then this might just be the best chapter of your life."

You're not here to "manage tasks." You're here to build systems that create 10,000 unforgettable moments a day.

You'll turn emotion into interface, ideas into products, and chaos into clarity.

You'll lead without ego, execute without excuses, and ship with pride.

• Own and evolve the product roadmap aligned with business goals (CR, AOV, LTV)
• Prioritize by ROI and emotional impact, not opinions
• Turn marketing insights into product opportunities

• Write specs, user stories, and lead sprint planning in ClickUp or Jira
• QA every release before it goes live
• Manage developers, designers, and deliver features on time - always
• Track velocity, fix blockers, and create momentum

• Own A/B testing, CRO flows, product page redesigns, bundling logic, and urgency triggers
• Improve every click, scroll, and micro-interaction across desktop and mobile
• Make every feature feel fast, human, and meaningful
• Build systems that hold up during 2,000+ orders/hour
• Work with marketing, support, ops, and C-level to move in sync
• Be the glue. The firestarter. The one who gets it done.

• You've launched real products in eCommerce (3-7 years of experience)
• You think like a PM, act like a founder, and care like a customer
• You can balance speed, stability, and soul
• You lead people by example, not by talking
• You don't need permission. You need a mission.

• You're tired and hoping this role brings you energy
• You're in a season of personal chaos and need "stability"
• You want someone to hand you a playbook
• You panic under pressure, or wait to be told what to do

• I ship fast, and I ship clean
• I lead when no one's watching
• I find friction in the funnel and kill it
• I turn ideas into experiments into features
