Software Engineering Manager Container and Virtualisation Infrastructure



Job description

Overview


Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets.

Our platform, Ubuntu, is widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation, and IoT.

Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors.

The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with 1200+ colleagues in 75+ countries and very few office-based roles.

Teams meet two to four times yearly in person, in interesting locations around the world, to align on strategy and execution.

The company is founder-led, profitable, and growing.



Role and focus


Our mission is to build a next-generation private cloud infrastructure, combining KVM, Ceph, and SDN technologies to create a data center scale cloud that just works and provides a mission-critical cloud for edge and core enterprise deployments.

We're hiring engineering managers with experience in high-quality microservice architectures and high-performance team leadership who also have deep familiarity with Linux kernel, virtualization, storage and networking.

LXD components span the entire software stack from low-level kernel features to the upper level management API/CLI.

Our most effective engineers are fluent in all these layers, and able to anticipate the consequences of design and engineering choices elsewhere in a complex distributed system.

This role requires a solid technical background, but the primary responsibility is to run an effective team and develop the colleagues you manage.

You are expected to help them grow as engineers, do important work, and work well with colleagues and the community.

Technical leadership experience and a software engineering background are necessary prerequisites for this role.

You will be expected to lead, challenge, and develop engineers, positively influence the culture, facilitate technical delivery, and work with your team on strategy and execution.



Location: This is a remote position available in EMEA and the Americas.



What you will focus on



  • Lead a team of remote engineers

  • Develop talent through coaching, mentoring, feedback and hands-on career development

  • Set and manage expectations with other engineering teams, senior management, and external stakeholders

  • Advocate and advance modern software development practices

  • Participate in the engineering process through code and architectural review

  • Engage with teams at Canonical, the open source community and partners

  • Work from home with global travel for 4 to 6 weeks per year for internal and external events



What we are looking for in you



  • You understand modern Linux cloud computing technologies, including networking, storage, containers and K8s

  • You love developing and growing people and have a strong track record of doing it

  • You are focused on success and the delivery of timely, high quality software

  • You have a Bachelor's or equivalent in Computer Science, STEM or similar degree

  • You have strong written and verbal technical communication skills

  • You have experience programming in C and/or Go



What we offer you


We consider geographical location, experience, and performance in shaping compensation worldwide.

We revisit compensation annually to recognise outstanding performance.

In addition to base pay, we offer a performance-driven annual bonus.

We provide all team members with additional benefits, reflecting our values and fairness globally.

We balance programs to meet local needs.



  • Distributed work environment with twice-yearly team sprints in person

  • Personal learning and development budget of USD 2,000 per year

  • Annual compensation review

  • Recognition rewards

  • Annual holiday leave

  • Maternity and paternity leave

  • Employee Assistance Programme

  • Opportunity to travel to new locations to meet colleagues

  • Priority Pass and travel upgrades for long haul company events
