Canonical
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, and IoT. We operate with a globally distributed team and have very few office-based roles. Team members meet two to four times per year in person at locations around the world to align on strategy and execution. The company is founder-led, profitable and growing. We are hiring a Senior Site Reliability Engineer Next-gen operations at scale, with pure Python infra-as-code, from bare metal to containers and applications. Our goal is to perfect enterprise infrastructure devops. We run hundreds of private cloud, Kubernetes, and application clusters for customers across physical and public cloud estates, and we are raising the bar on automation by embracing a universal operator pattern and model-driven operations. To succeed in this role you need to believe in automation as a pure software engineering problem, not a hack-it-till-it-works approach. You should be interested in the scientific approach to operations at scale, driven by metrics and code, and able to learn the entire stack, from bare metal networking and kernel up to serverless and open source applications. Location : Globally remote role The role entails
Our cloud operations engineers bring Python software-engineering skills and rigour to the operations domain. We practise devsecops from bare metal to application. We architect and run OpenStack, Kubernetes and software defined storage, and we enable devsecops for applications running on that infrastructure too. To become a member of this team, you need to be a software engineer fluent in Python, have a genuine interest in the full open source infrastructure stack from metal to containers, and be able to work in a high-pressure operations environment with mission-critical services for global brand-name customers. As a member of the team you will gain experience in a broad range of cloud technologies and stay current with the latest capabilities in open source infrastructure as the state of the art improves. We drive upgrades to keep our customers on the latest, best solutions. What we are looking for in you
Degree in Software Engineering or Computer Science Experience with Linux and familiarity with Linux networking and storage Python software development expertise Operational experience Excellent interpersonal skills, curiosity, flexibility, and accountability Ability to travel internationally twice a year, for company events up to two weeks long Nice-to-have skills
