Please consider my application for re-election to the Technical Board at
https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/call-for-nominations-2024-ubuntu-technical-board/50081/3
(also copied below for reference as well).
I'm Alex Murray (alexmurray on Launchpad[1]/amurray on IRC) and have
been a part of the Ubuntu community as a long-time user and enthusiast
since back in 2006. In 2018 I was privileged to join Canonical as the
Ubuntu Security Tech Lead and have worked as part of that amazing team
ever since. I have a passion for making Ubuntu as secure and usable
out-of-the-box whilst also ensuring Canonical has a great relationship
with our community. In 2022 I was appointed to the Ubuntu Technical
Board and have served the community in that role for the past 2 years.
I started and am still hosting the Ubuntu Security Podcast (now every 2
weeks) for the last 6 years as a way to evangelise the awesome work of
the Ubuntu Security team and the various security aspects of Ubuntu.
I am also involved with security aspects of snapd and as one of the snap
store reviewers[2] to help guide snap publishers to make sure their
snaps can work as smoothly as possible for their users.
Finally, I've been a core-dev for 3 and a half years now as well. I have
a strong passion for Ubuntu and our community, and was part of the
core-dev Office Hours booth[3] at the recent Ubuntu Summit in the
Hague. This was a great chance to both get to meet other Ubuntu
developers from the community IRL but also to help resolve both various
technical issues and provide guidance on ways to better approach and
navigate Ubuntu development for unfamiliar community members.
I would be honoured to have the privilege of serving the community again
as part of the Ubuntu Technical Board for the next 2 years if so chosen.
Thanks for your consideration.
Thanks,
Alex
