Job Description

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 centers. We work across the entire spectrum of cloud offerings, from Ubuntu itself to virtualization and private cloud, Kubernetes, and the implementation of sophisticated open source solutions such as MLops platforms, data platforms and more. We are rapidly expanding the range of open source solutions we offer and deliver to customers as we move into new industries like telco, finance, health care, and media.

The role of a Cloud Field Engineering Manager at Canonical

The Field Engineering team is our team of cloud solutions architects at Canonical, working directly with our customers, designing private and public cloud solutions fitting their workload needs. The portfolio of products includes on-premise cloud solutions such as Openstack, MicroCloud, and Ceph, and solutions that could be deployed either on-premises or in public clouds such as Kubernetes, Kubeflow, Spark, PostgreSQL, etc. The team works hands-on with the technologies by deploying, testing, and handing over the solution to our support or managed services team at the end of a project. Managers and team members also take part in presales conversations to provide technical advice during the sales process.

A Cloud Field Engineering Manager is responsible for line management and career guidance. The ability to develop engineering talent, to represent your team from a technical perspective, and to drive collaboration with other teams and customers are all critical to success in this role. You are also expected to actively participate in technical presales to help our department achieve our quarterly goals.

Location: This role will be home-based, managing a team in your time zone.

What your day will look like

  • Lead and develop a team of engineers, ranging from graduate to senior.
  • Work remotely in a single major time zone.
  • Coach, mentor, and offer career development feedback.
  • Identify and measure team health indicators.
  • Implement disciplined engineering processes.
  • Represent your team and product to stakeholders, partners, and customers.
  • Develop and evangelize great engineering and organizational practices.
  • Plan and manage progress on agreed goals and projects.
  • Be an active part of the leadership team, collaborating with other leaders.

What we are looking for in you

  • Knowledge of cloud computing concepts & technologies, such as Kubernetes, Openstack, AWS, GCP, Azure, Ceph, etc.
  • Practical knowledge of Linux and networking.
  • Experience in technical presales.
  • You are a dynamic person who loves to jump into new projects and interact with people.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.
  • Passion and a track record of developing and growing people.
  • Experience in leading, coaching, and mentoring engineers.
  • Organized and able to ensure your team delivers timely, high-quality results.
  • An exceptional academic track record from high school and, preferably, university as well.
  • Willingness to travel up to 40% of the time. Field Engineers attend internal company events, external tech events, and customer meetings.

Additional skills that you might also bring

  • Second language - Spanish or French.
  • Python knowledge.
  • Experience collaborating with external partners.
  • Experience collaborating with several internal teams and providing stakeholder feedback for engineering roadmaps.

What we offer you

We consider geographical location, experience, and performance in shaping compensation worldwide. We revisit compensation annually (and more often for graduates and associates) to ensure we recognize outstanding performance. In addition to base pay, we offer a performance-driven annual bonus. We provide all team members with additional benefits, which reflect our values and ideals. We balance our 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.
  • Recognition rewards.
  • Annual holiday leave.
  • Maternity and paternity leave.
  • Employee Assistance Programme.
  • Opportunity to travel to new locations to meet colleagues from your team and others.
  • Priority Pass for travel and travel upgrades for long-haul company events.
