Cloud Field Engineer at Canonical

This role is ideal for a mid-level Engineer who thrives at the intersection of software development and infrastructure architecture. You should have a solid foundation in Computer Science, intermediate to advanced Python skills, and a deep interest in the open-source ecosystem. The perfect candidate is someone who enjoys being hands-on with the Linux stack but also possesses the "people skills" required for consulting and client presentations. The position offers a unique "Remote-First" culture with global flexibility, offset by 25% travel for internal sprints and client events. While the base salary is not specified, Canonical offers a performance-driven quarterly bonus, an annual $2,000 USD professional development budget, and premium travel perks like Priority Pass. You will gain massive exposure to high-demand technologies like Kubernetes, OpenStack, and Ceph while working on the team that publishes Ubuntu. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Are a Python developer who prefers architectural problem-solving over standard feature-factory coding. * Have practical experience managing Linux environments and cloud-native technologies (K8s, AWS, or OpenStack). * Enjoy a "Road Warrior" lifestyle that includes international travel and collaborating with diverse global clients. * Are comfortable acting as a technical consultant, moving from coding to training and back again.
