Software Engineer - Secure Container Images
Role focuses on building and maintaining hardened container images and automated CI/CD pipelines. Requires Bash/Python, CI/CD experience, and a STEM degree. Global travel and remote-work options available.
With more than 10 billion pulls, Canonical's container images are trusted by developers worldwide to build and run software securely and at scale. We are advancing the state of the art with a new generation of Ubuntu-based container images we call rocks. You will own the path from upstream source to published image, turning open source software into tested, signed, and continuously maintained artifacts. This is fast-paced, multi-disciplinary software engineering, across many languages and open source projects, with automation central to the role. You will design automated CI/CD pipelines, write tooling and tests to assess security and compatibility, mentor colleagues, and travel up to 15% for events. A Bachelor's degree or equivalent in CS or STEM, English proficiency, and 0-7 years experience are expected. Nice-to-have: GitOps, Go/Rust, distroless images, CIS/NIST/FedRAMP/DISA STIG familiarity. Canonical offers a distributed workplace and numerous perks including learning budgets and travel opportunities.
