Job Description
We want to transform the world of software operations by enabling true model-driven operations via next-generation infrastructure-as-code.
This will allow companies to run very efficient bare-metal operations for high-performance computing, private cloud, data lakes, AI / ML, and analytics.
We need to invent some new technology, and we need to build some new products; we are therefore looking for someone who can lead and inspire a regional software engineering team to fulfill this initiative.
The Solutions Engineering team works in close collaboration with our managed infrastructure operations team, which runs many private OpenStack clouds and Kubernetes clusters for customers around the world.
This enables us to improve our infra-as-code products based on our own real experience, mirroring that of our users and customers.
We work in Python, creating open-source automation capabilities that simplify operations for anybody, anywhere, who is building on Ubuntu.
Most of the team's work involves pure Python software development focused on enabling true DevOps workflows. We strive for high quality in both design, documentation, tests, and performance as we enhance operations code packages and Ubuntu itself in order to ensure our platform is the easiest, most robust, and best performing for driving your infrastructure.
As an Engineering Manager, your primary responsibility is to the people you lead and support : ensuring that they are growing as engineers, doing valuable work, and finding satisfaction in their career at Canonical.
We need someone who can display technical leadership by leveraging a solid background in software development so that they're able to challenge and grow their team members.
