    Engineering Director, Ubuntu Systems Management - New York, United States - Canonical

    Default job background
    Description


    This is a director-level management opportunity to lead a globally distributed software engineering team that works in Python and Golang, and builds our systems management service Landscape, to help enterprises manage their Ubuntu operations at scale.

    You'll be responsible for the day-to-day leadership of several teams spread across the globe, you'll own the roadmap, set the pace for the team, and deliver high quality software both as SAAS and on-premise.

    As an engineering director at Canonical you are expected to be deeply technical and to enjoy working with code, but your primary responsibility is to develop and guide your teams.

    You facilitate and ensure that they are continually improving, doing valuable work, and enjoying their time at Canonical despite (or perhaps because of) the intense and challenging nature of the work.

    You will have the opportunity to influence the culture, facilitate technical delivery, and work with your teams to hone strategy and practices.

    We look for cheerful but steely leads, who are ambitious to compete with the best companies in the world and deliver a better experience for open source at scale.

    You'll be delivering a large project that powers complex, highly concurrent distributed software systems across the world, while growing and developing engineers at all levels.

    We're looking for someone with a proven track record in management, and delivery of quality software over time.
    Technical contribution through code is a plus but not the primary focus of this role. Significant past experience with hands-on software development, particularly in Go, is desirable. You will be expected to lead and facilitate technical design and architecture work alongside your senior engineering staff.
    The role is fully remote, with global travel for 4-6 weeks per year to facilitate company events.

    Location:
    This role can be held anywhere in the Americas time zones, from Canada to Argentina :)
    What your day will look like

    Collaborate proactively with multiple distributed teams
    Help engineering teams establish and achieve community engagement goals
    Establish consistency in community process, engagement, and interaction across engineering
    Influence others and represent technical insight to customers and other engineers
    Spend a significant amount of time mentoring others and providing cross-team input
    Work from home with global travel 4 to 6 weeks for internal and external events
    What we are looking for in you

    You are capable of representing Canonical / Ubuntu externally
    You have experience leading successful projects and teams
    You are organised and effective working through managers, from home
    You make well-considered plans and keep on top of progress weekly
    You are an articulate communicator
    You love technology and working with brilliant people
    You follow industry trends and new technologies, thoughtfully and carefully
    You understand and value how you do what you do, as well as what you do
    You have strong collaboration and influencing skills
    You are curious, flexible, articulate, and accountable
    You value soft skills and are passionate, enterprising, thoughtful, and self-motivated
    Willingness to travel up to 4 times a year for internal events
    Additional skills that you might also bring

    Experience doing systems management of Linux infrastructure would be a plus
    A public record of community engagement, particularly with open source communities
    You are comfortable preparing and giving presentations
    Experience building highly scalable Python web applications would be a plus
    Experience building highly scalable SaaS applications would be a plus
    What we offer you

    Your base pay will depend on various factors including your geographical location, level of experience, knowledge and skills.

    In addition to the benefits above, certain roles are also eligible for additional benefits and rewards including annual bonuses and sales incentives based on revenue or utilisation.

    Our compensation philosophy is to ensure equity right across our global workforce.

    In addition to a competitive base pay, we provide all team members with additional benefits, which reflect our values and ideals.

    Please note that additional benefits may apply depending on the work location and, for more information on these, you can ask in the later stages of the recruitment process.

    Fully remote working environment - weve been working remotely since 2004
    Personal learning and development budget of 2,000USD per annum
    Annual compensation review
    Recognition rewards
    Annual holiday leave
    Employee Assistance Programme
    Opportunity to travel to new locations to meet colleagues at sprints
    Priority Pass for travel and travel upgrades for long haul company events
