Job Vacancy at Canonical – Site Reliability Engineering Manager (Ghana)
This is a world-class devops engineering management challenge, bringing together software engineering and product development, operations management, and team leadership in a single high-value role.
Not only does this team support Canonical and Ubuntu operations, we also help shape Canonical's managed application services, raising the bar on devops and cloud-native operations as well as taking infra-as-code to the next level. We are blazing a trail to next-generation model-driven operations. We aim not only to automate every process that underpins our business, we want to make that automation available as open source in composable packages which others can use to drive their own operations.
We work across the full stack, from bare metal to Kubernetes, including cloud and virtualisation. We also work across the full range of infrastructure, from public cloud to private cloud and edge. You will need to be a Linux and operations expert, as well as a great manager capable of leading a high-performance team, to excel in this role.
If you have an affinity for open source development and a passion for operations, software engineering, and new technology, then you will enjoy working with some of the best people in the industry at Canonical.

We are part of Canonical's effort to raise the bar on ops technology, encapsulating real-world operational knowledge into reusable and composable software operations packages. We use our real-life operational experiences to contribute to product improvements.
From Kubernetes to the kernel and everything in-between, you'll be working with the latest technology in a fast-paced engineering environment. As an SRE Manager you will be responsible for the operations engineers in your time zone. This includes customer service management, managed services operations and consistent product improvement engineering.

- Proven experience of software delivery using Python, Go, C, C++, or Java
- Proven experience managing devops teams for SAAS or similar offerings
- Understanding of testing methodologies and maintainable code quality
- Experience with Ubuntu system administration
- Experience with agile software development methodologies
