Job Description

Canonical is seeking a seasoned engineering manager to spearhead the development of high-performing Go and Python services, as well as secure identity and access management solutions that will be used across all company products. This individual will define the way Canonical users, clients, and community members access their favorite open-source applications.

This is an opportunity for a software engineering manager with a passion for distributed systems operations to help transform the future of identity management at Canonical. Experience in the identity and access management (IAM) field is desirable but not required. The successful candidate will work with upstream open-source projects alongside internal teams to deliver high-quality software that can be deployed on bare metal, public cloud, and Kubernetes.

The ideal candidate will bring significant software development experience, Kubernetes knowledge, and a keen eye for software design, performance, and security. Responsibilities include working with product management to define the technical vision for products, managing the team backlog, reviewing code, coaching younger team members, designing software, writing high-quality code and tests, providing insightful code reviews, writing documentation, and helping to troubleshoot issues.

In addition to the engineering behind the project itself, this role offers the chance to work with industry-leading teams inside Canonical, ensuring work is backed by rock-solid data stores, and highly observable using our Kubernetes-based Observability stack. The successful candidate will also work with broader open-source communities, participating in 'hackfest' events, webinars, and conferences.

Key Skills and Qualifications:
- Proven experience hiring and leading a high-performance software engineering team
- Experience with Go and Python software development
- Ability to design and implement complex, distributed systems
- Experience working with container technology and Kubernetes
- Strong understanding of software/infrastructure security and performance
- Experience designing and/or operating large-scale distributed systems
- Knowledge of identity and access management technologies and standards is desirable but not essential

Our services help businesses worldwide reduce costs, improve efficiency, and enhance security with Ubuntu. We are proud to foster a workplace free from discrimination.
