Overview

Join to apply for the Microservices Engineer role at Canonical .

Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets. Our platform, Ubuntu, is 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 1200+ colleagues in 75+ countries and very few office-based roles. Teams meet two to four times yearly in person, in locations around the world, to align on strategy and execution. The company is founder-led, profitable, and growing.

This role is a general selection track for teams that focus on back-end REST API microservices engineering in Go and Python. It covers all levels of seniority. Apply here if you are an outstanding engineer with clear views on APIs, microservice design, engineering processes and DevOps. Our services need to scale to handle millions of Ubuntu clients and collaboration across thousands of community members, and they are central to the health of critical infrastructure globally.

As Ubuntu has been adopted by mainstream enterprise computing through cloud and developer-centric strategy, the quality of these services has grown in importance. We aim to level up our practices, quality and performance in the web services domain, expanding our teams to improve scalability, performance, resilience and DevOps practices.

Responsibilities

  • Write high-quality, well-designed, and robust software that works at scale
  • Design APIs and software architecture for collegial review

  • Debug issues and produce high-quality solutions to resolve them
  • Contribute to technical documentation to make it the best of its kind
  • Discuss, contribute to, and collaborate across teams at Canonical
  • Work from home with global travel twice annually for company events

What we are looking for in you (Qualifications)

  • An exceptional academic track record from both high school and university
  • Undergraduate degree in Computer Science or STEM, or a compelling narrative about your alternative path
  • Drive and a track record of going above-and-beyond expectations
  • Proficiency in Python and / or Go
  • History of writing modern, maintainable software
  • Experience with relational and non-relational database systems
  • Continuous integration and continuous delivery experience
  • Experience with systems programming or scalable web services
  • Professional written and spoken English
  • Experience with Linux (Debian or Ubuntu preferred)
  • Excellent interpersonal skills, curiosity, flexibility, and accountability
  • Passion, thoughtfulness, and self-motivation
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills
  • Result-oriented, with a personal drive to meet commitments
  • Ability to travel twice a year, for company events up to two weeks each
  • Additional Skills That You Might Also Bring

  • Experience with container tech such as LXD, Docker, and Kubernetes
  • Understanding of build systems and toolchains
  • Experience with cross-compilation
  • Experience with hyperscale public clouds and / or private clouds
  • Experience with designing, building, and running distributed systems
  • Performance engineering and security experience
  • What we offer you

    We consider geographical location, experience, and performance in shaping compensation worldwide. We revisit compensation annually to ensure we recognise outstanding performance. In addition to base pay, we offer a performance-driven annual bonus. We provide all team members with additional benefits aligned with our values. We balance programs to meet local needs and ensure fairness globally.

  • Distributed work environment with twice-yearly team sprints in person
  • Personal learning and development budget of USD 2,000 per year
  • Annual compensation review
