Engineering Manager for IAM (Identity and Access Management) at Canonical

This role is designed for a senior engineering leader with a strong foundation in distributed systems and systems-level programming. You should be an experienced manager who remains technically "sharp"—capable of reviewing code in Go and Python and architecting solutions for Kubernetes environments. While a background in Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a plus, the company prioritizes high-level engineering talent and the ability to lead high-performance teams over specific domain expertise. As part of a fully remote, global organization, you will enjoy significant autonomy and a culture built on distributed collaboration. Standout perks include a $2,000 annual professional development budget, performance-based bonuses, and the unique opportunity to travel internationally twice a year for in-person team "sprints." The work is high-impact, as your team's security solutions will underpin major open-source products used by millions of developers. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have a proven track record of hiring and coaching high-performing software teams. * Are comfortable "under the hood" with Go, Python, and container orchestration (Kubernetes). * Possess an exceptional academic or professional track record and thrive in high-standard environments. * Enjoy a mix of technical strategy, backlog management, and hands-on participation in the software lifecycle.
