Job description

Software Engineering Manager - Container and Virtualisation Infrastructure

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 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.

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 for edge and core enterprise deployments.

We are 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 engineers are fluent across these layers and can anticipate the consequences of design and engineering choices in a complex distributed system.

As an engineering manager at Canonical you will have a solid technical background, but your 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, do it outstandingly well, find professional and personal satisfaction, and work well with colleagues and the community.

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

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

The successful candidate will have experience leading collaborative engineering teams, and demonstrate the ability to solve challenging distributed systems problems and deep knowledge of Linux.

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

  • Understanding of modern Linux cloud computing technologies, including networking, storage, containers and Kubernetes
  • Strong track record of developing and growing people
  • Focus on delivering timely, high-quality software
  • Bachelor's or equivalent in Computer Science, STEM or similar degree
  • Strong written and verbal technical communication skills
  • 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 and offer a performance-driven annual bonus.

We provide all team members with additional benefits reflecting our values.

Programs are balanced to meet local needs and ensure fairness globally.

  • 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
