Job Title: Software Engineer – Python and K8s
Location: Nigeria
Overview
- Our mission is to reinvent the way companies manage their open-source information systems – on public clouds and in their own data centers.
- To achieve that we are building a new community around Python opscode for open source applications, running on Kubernetes.
- We want to move all of Canonical and Ubuntu IS onto this new, open-source codebase.
- We are confident that we can dramatically improve the experience of running complex business operations – and then we can help our customers embrace those new techniques and products.
- Traditionally, IS is an inward-facing operation.
- We would like to transform our IS team into an extension of the product engineering capability at Canonical. Our internal workloads are in many cases the same open-source workloads that our customers want to operate.
- This team will productize those workloads for real-time automated operations on Kubernetes.
- This role is ideal for software engineers who enjoy Python, have a passion for distributed systems, and have an interest in the entire Linux stack – from kernel to networking to virtualization and containers.
- It is a role that requires rigor in both code and customer interactions. Our engineers are technically astute open source enthusiasts who are excited about cloud computing and are ready to join a global team charged with delivering world-class services to our customers.
- Strong Python development skills and familiarity with Kubernetes are key requirements of this role.
- You’ll work closely with other teams in Canonical to ensure your products operate reliably, efficiently, and scale to production-sized workloads for our customers looking to adopt the cutting-edge technology.
- You will participate and be responsible for ensuring sound software architecture and following best practices in software quality, testing, and documentation.
What you’ll do
- Work in Python to design and deliver open source software operations code
- Work across the entire Linux stack, from kernel, networking, storage, to applications
- Learn to think rigorously about application and infrastructure reliability
- Shape high-quality open source monitoring and alerting infrastructure
- Simplify open source operations for our customers and open source community
- Demonstrate sound engineering design and testing principles in your code
- Follow agile software development practices
- Coach and develop your colleagues where you have insights
- Grow a healthy, collaborative engineering culture in line with company values
- Work from home with global travel once or twice a year for up to 2 weeks for events
Who you are
- You love technology and working with brilliant people
- You have a Bachelor’s or equivalent in Computer Science, STEM, or similar degree
- You are experienced with Linux systems administration, package management, and operations
- You have hands-on experience with at least one public cloud
- You are familiar with Docker and Kubernetes
- You are an excellent Python programmer and enjoy challenging projects
- You understand the importance of reliable software and strive to design and code to that expectation
- You are organized and want your team to deliver timely, high-quality software.
