Jobs in Zapopan, Mexiko

Use your deep C++ skills on Windows and MacOS to build an amazing open source developer experience with Multipass, the workstation mini-cloud at your fingertips which provides Ubuntu and appliance VMs on demand for build, test, and prototyping. The Multipass team is hiring a Software Engineer to join our distributed team. We greatly value quality in our code and a great user experience.

Multipass is published for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Think of it as a workstation mini-cloud. At its simplest, you can say multipass launch to get a new VM on your workstation. You can feed data to that VM just as you would on a public cloud like AWS, Azure, or GCP.

The goal is not to be a full cloud but to give developers a local cloud on their workstation, enabling background builds, testing cloud appliances, or deploying cloud-init scripts, all free of charge. It can also be used as a build farm on shared servers.

As a Software Engineer, you are expected to play a leadership role in designing, mentoring, reviewing, and coding.
