As the IS Architect, you'll be in a unique position to improve Canonical products and the open-source technologies they're based on.

- Provide the IS management with input and advice with regards to technology, reliability, resilience and business cases
- Lead technical choices to implement solutions as self-service products, ensuring scalable operation
- Collaborate with product security as well as operations security to set best practice and mitigate new threats in a timely manner
- Automate operations for reuse across the world's largest companies, taking into consideration the complexities of distributed systems
- Collaborate with development teams to design service architecture, documentation, playbooks, policies and operational procedures
- Analyze incidents and events, and establish what the reason behind the reasons are, and what structural improvements can be made to minimize the chance of them reoccurring
- Exceptional academic track record from both high school and university
- Undergraduate degree in a technical subject or a compelling narrative about your alternative chosen path
- Confidence to respectfully speak up, exchange feedback, and share ideas without hesitation
- Track record of going above-and-beyond expectations to achieve outstanding results
- Extensive knowledge of cloud computing concepts, technologies & operation
- Practical knowledge of Linux networking, routing, and firewalls, internet transit and large scale/bandwidth networking.
- Experience dealing with significant production outages, incident response and postmortems
- A passion for writing, sharing, and maintaining enterprise open-source software solutions
- Able to communicate clearly and effectively in English over email, chat, video or voice calls and in-person
- Be familiarized and passionate about open-source, especially Ubuntu or Debian
- Modern software engineering background (peer-review, unit testing, SCM, CI/CD, Agile)
- Hands-on experience of automatic administration of enterprise Linux servers at scale
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 or commission. 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.
