Canberra, ACT, Australia beBeeDeveloper Full time $120,000 - $150,000

Our company 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 IoT.

Job Opportunity

The job holder will be working on next-generation open source VMM or container technology, or related open source networking and storage. We invest in open source related to application isolation, workload orchestration, system or OCI containers, micro service architecture or cloud infrastructure.

  • RustVMM has great potential as a new hypervisor for Linux. We are building a team to work on this, with an emphasis on performance, security and operability.
  • Docker images are easy to make and publish on Docker Hub and other registries, but the quality, consistency and security maintenance of those images is broadly very poor. We are in a good position to publish a portfolio of outstanding Docker images.
  • LXD is a modern system container and virtual machine manager that is widely used on Ubuntu, ChromeOS and other Linux platforms.
  • We work on K8s itself and on the operations tooling around it.

The job holder will design and specify new features, engage with upstream communities in their area of expertise, conduct security analysis and reviews to ensure defence in depth, create and monitor performance benchmarks to optimise their product, collaborate proactively with a distributed team, write high quality code to create new features, debug issues and produce high quality code to fix them, review code produced by other engineers, discuss ideas and collaborate on finding good solutions.

Key Requirements
  • An exceptional academic track record from both high school and university.
  • Undergraduate degree in Computer Science or STEM, or a compelling narrative about their alternative path.
  • Drive and a track record of going above-and-beyond expectations.
  • They have worked on open source virt or container tech.
  • They have experience working in the kernel or very low level system.
  • Professional written and spoken English.
  • Experience with Linux (Debian or Ubuntu preferred).
  • Excellent interpersonal skills, curiosity, flexibility, and accountability.
  • Passion, thoughtfulness, and self-motivation.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills.
  • Result-oriented, with a personal drive to meet commitments.
  • Ability to travel twice a year, for company events up to two weeks each.
