This role is ideal for a mid-level software engineer with a strong background in Python and a deep interest in the open-source ecosystem. You should have practical experience building container images and a solid understanding of Linux systems administration. Canonical is looking for someone who is comfortable working in a globally distributed, remote-first environment and who enjoys the intersection of software development and DevOps.

You will also get to travel internationally up to 15% of the time for in-person team sprints in various global locations. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have professional experience with Python and container orchestration tools like Docker or Kubernetes. * Are proficient in CI/CD automation using tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or Concourse. * Enjoy contributing to open-source projects and engaging with a global community of developers. * Value a fully remote lifestyle but look forward to meeting colleagues in person a few times a year.
