Our platform, Ubuntu, is very widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation, and IoT.

Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors.

The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with ****+ 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.The company is founder-led, profitable, and growing.We are hiring an engineering manager to lead the reboot of our Landscape systems management solution for Ubuntu.Ubuntu is growing rapidly in the enterprise, with estates expanding from cloud, to bare metal servers, to vSphere clusters, and of course desktops and devices.

Ubuntu is easy to deploy and configure, one node at a time, but it's difficult to know where you stand on policy and compliance, patch management, or access control across a large estate.

Ubuntu used to be under the radar in the enterprise, but it is now becoming an official platform for many companies.

Those enterprises very much want a high quality way to manage their Ubuntu estate.We started work on Landscape many years ago, and the current generation of the service reflects the choices of the day.

We now have the opportunity to invest significantly in a team to bring a fresh new vision for large-scale Ubuntu estate management to the project.

That doesn't make this a greenfield opportunity - we have a system that serves thousands of deployments - but we know we want to step back and give it a big new push, letting go of some things that are no longer so important, and embracing a range of new priorities.

This role is the critical engineering leadership role for that mission.Today we use Python, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, HAProxy, and have a ReactJS front end.

In other web services projects we use more Golang these days.

Our next wave of Landscape engineering is an opportunity to raise the bar on SAAS and on-prem solution technologies, architectures, patterns and operations.

Our goal is to make it easy for enterprises to own a few Landscape instances that serve their global estate, and to be able to apply policy and know intuitively where they stand - globally - in a very complex world of mixed Ubuntu versions, substrates and flavours.Engineering managers at Canonical bring both technical and management skills to the leadership of their teams.
