Descripción del empleo

Our mission is to build a next-generation private cloud infrastructure, combining KVM, Ceph, and SDN technologies to create a data center scale cloud that 'just works' and provides a mission-critical cloud for edge and core enterprise deployments. We are hiring a Golang software engineer to work on the low level Go codebase sitting between our REST API and the low level C libraries used to manage containers and virtual machines. We are looking for system-level developers with experience in design and data management/modeling.

LXD components span the entire software stack from low-level kernel features to the upper level management API/CLI. Our most effective engineers are fluent in all these layers, and able to anticipate the consequences of design and engineering choices elsewhere in a complex distributed system.

This is an opportunity for someone who wants to have a meaningful impact on modern cloud computing technologies. Canonical offers a fun, fast-paced team environment and a career full of learning and development.

Location: This is a remote position available in EMEA and the Americas.

What you will focus on

• Design, implement and document system level Go code
• Model data, design database schema and implement data storage in a dqlite (SQL) database
• Maintain code quality through static analysis, unit and system tests
• Collaborate proactively with a distributed team
• Discuss ideas and collaborate on finding good solutions
• Work from home with global travel 2 to 4 weeks/year for internal and external events

What we are looking for in you

• You have experience programming in Go and C
• You are knowledgeable in networking and storage technologies
• You have experience with two or more of: cloud computing, virtualisation, containers, distributed systems, open source community
• You are curious, flexible, articulate and accountable
• You value soft skills and are enterprising, thoughtful and self-motivated
• You have a bachelor's or equivalent in Computer Science, STEM or similar degree

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 recognise 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
