Join to apply for the Engineering Manager- Ceph & Distributed Storage role at Canonical.
Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets.

The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with 1,200+ colleagues in 75+ countries and very few office‑based roles.

Set and manage expectations with other engineering teams and external stakeholders
Advance modern, agile software development practices
Maintain a culture of quality and engineering excellence
Grow a healthy, collaborative engineering culture in line with the company values
Be an active part of the leadership team and collaborate with other leaders in the organisation
Work from home with global travel up to 20% for internal and external events
Qualifications
Software engineering background, preferably with Python and C++ experience
Experience operating scale‑out storage clusters on Linux in production environments, preferably with Ceph
Love embracing new technologies and pushing the boundaries of what is possible
Experience developing and growing people, with a track record of doing it
Interest in building products that improve how people operate software and infrastructure everywhere
Knowledgeable and passionate about software development
Experience in leading, managing, coaching and mentoring software developers toward delivering timely, high‑quality software together
