This is an opportunity to run a field engineering team, helping customers understand and implement Canonical's open source solutions in public clouds and in their own data centres.
We work across the entire spectrum of cloud offerings, from Ubuntu itself to virtualisation, private cloud, Kubernetes, and the implementation of sophisticated open-source solutions such as MLOps platforms and data platforms.
We are rapidly expanding the range of open-source solutions we offer and deliver to customers, and as we move into new industries such as telco, finance, health care and media, we design and develop new open-source solutions to meet their needs.
We believe that Engineering Managers should be outstanding engineers themselves.
They should feel completely at home troubleshooting technical issues and having technical presales conversations with customers.
They should contribute to project delivery themselves, but know that the technical contributions they bring are far less significant than their ability to shape the whole team's direction, focus and delivery.
We grow management skills and train engineers, who are interested in soft skills, to be managers.
We believe that open source is just starting to transform the tech sector and enterprise compute.
Our goal is to make open source easier, more reliable and more secure for deployment and development.
We strive to be the provider of "most software to most companies".
To deliver on that ambition, our engineers are carefully selected from applicants across the globe.
We select for brilliance and motivation to take open source to the next level.
Our engineering managers help teams achieve more than they realised they could, and feel proud of the result.
