.we are on a mission to transform the world of software operations, using python for next-generation infrastructure-as-code and pioneering model-driven operations, to enable companies to run very efficient bare metal operations for high performance computing, private cloud, data lakes and analytics. We need to invent some new technology, and we need to build some new products, and we are looking to hire a leader in that initiative to run a regional software engineering and devops team.this team is part of our fully managed infrastructure operations organisation. We run many private clouds and kubernetes clusters for customers around the world, which enables us to improve our infra-as-code products based on our own real experience, mirroring that of our users and customers. We work in python, creating open source operations capabilities that simplify these operations for anybody, worldwide, who is building on ubuntu.this team is a true devops team - one of our global monitoring and network operations centers - but most of the work involved is pure python software development, where we expect a focus on quality, design, documentation, tests and performance. The team will be responsible for remote monitoring of infrastructure, using open source products, and improvements to that monitoring capability. The team will also enhance operations code packages, and ubuntu itself, to ensure our platform is the easiest, most robust, and best performing way to drive your data center.as the engineering team leader for the devops centre, your primary responsibility is to the people you lead and support: ensuring that they are growing as engineers, doing valuable work, and finding satisfaction in their career at canonical. As a lead for software engineers, technical leadership and a solid background in software development is a must, so that you're able to challenge and grow your team members. You will have the opportunity to influence the culture, facilitate technical delivery, and work with your team on direction and execution
