Software Engineer (Python/Linux/Packaging)Join to apply for the Software Engineer (Python/Linux/Packaging) role at Canonical Software Engineer (Python/Linux/Packaging)3 days ago Be among the first 25 applicants Join to apply for the Software Engineer (Python/Linux/Packaging) role at Canonical Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets.
Our platform, Ubuntu, is very widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation, and Io T.
Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors.
The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with 1200+ colleagues in 75+ countries and very few office-based roles.
Teams meet two to four times yearly in person, in interesting locations around the world, to align on strategy and execution.
The company is founder-led, profitable, and growing.
We are hiring talented Software Engineers with strong Python, Packaging and Linux skills and who want to have a positive impact on the day-to-day workflow of thousands of snap, rock and charm publishers.
To be successful on this team you'll need to be interested in packaging formats, build systems and automation that can simplify the lives of developers and engineers trying to ship software to the widest possible audience.
We design and maintain specialist Python tools to support the developer build and publication process.
The team takes responsibility for tooling that builds snaps, charms and more recently, rocks.
Snapcraft allows developers to deliver app updates to millions of Linux systems automatically, eliminating the long tail of supported releases and complex install instructions.
Snapcraft enables thousands of applications from over a thousand developers, including well-recognised names like Spotify, Slack, and Microsoft.
Likewise, Charmcraft enables collaboration between charmed operator developers, and publication on Charmhub, home of the Charmed Operator Collection.
Charmed Operators enable developers to package software like databases, event queues, caches, observability tools, identity tools and more, right alongside the operations code that enables teams to integrate and operate that software at scale from Day 0 to Day 1,000, and beyond.
And Rockcraft provides the means for container developers to build production-grade Ubuntu-based container images, regardless of their experience as a software developer.
These container images are called Rocks and can be found in various popular container registries, like Docker Hub, offering an opinionated and consistent design that focus on security while providing an homogeneous user experience across all rocks.
What we are looking for in you You have expertise in Python.
You have a strong understanding of the makeup of a modern GNU/Linux distribution.
You have a good understanding of build systems and toolchains, including for cross-compilation.
Experience working with container technology, such as Docker, Kubernetes and LXD.
Use your familiarity with languages, toolchains, frameworks, integrations, and CI systems to extend the snap build ecosystem Work with external open source and commercial projects to understand how we can better serve community needs.
What we offer you Your base pay will depend on various factors including your geographical location, level of experience, knowledge and skills.
In addition to the benefits above, certain roles are also eligible for additional benefits and rewards including annual bonuses and sales incentives based on revenue or utilisation.
Our compensation philosophy is to ensure equity right across our global workforce.
In addition to a competitive base pay, we provide all team members with additional benefits, which reflect our values and ideals.
Please note that additional benefits may apply depending on the work location and, for more information on these, you can ask in the later stages of the recruitment process.
