Job details

As an Engineering Manager at Canonical, you must be technically strong, but your main responsibility is to run an effective team and develop the colleagues you manage. You will develop and review code as a leader, but know that the best way to improve the product is to ensure that the whole team is focused, productive, and unblocked. You are expected to help them grow as engineers, do meaningful work, do it outstandingly well, find professional and personal satisfaction, and work well with colleagues and the community. You will also be expected to be a positive influence on culture, facilitate technical delivery, and regularly reflect with your team on strategy and execution. You will collaborate closely with other Engineering Managers, product managers, and architects, producing an engineering roadmap with ambitious and achievable goals. We expect Engineering Managers to be fluent in the programming language, architecture, and components that their team uses. Code reviews and architectural leadership are part of the job. The commitment to healthy engineering practices, documentation, quality, and performance optimization is as important as the requirement for fair and clear management, and the obligation to ensure a high-performing team.

Desired candidate profile

Observability: The ability to infer the internal state of a system based on the data it produces, such as logs, metrics, and traces.
Monitoring vs. Observability:

Monitoring is the act of checking system health by looking at predefined metrics and indicators.

Observability is the broader concept, which enables proactive troubleshooting and understanding of complex systems by exploring the data and uncovering unknown issues.

Three Pillars of Observability:

Metrics: Quantitative data points that provide insights into system performance, like CPU usage, memory usage, request counts, and error rates.
Logs: Structured or unstructured data that records events, errors, and system activity, which helps diagnose issues and understand system behavior.
Traces: Distributed traces that track the journey of requests or transactions across various services in a microservices architecture. They help identify bottlenecks and latencies in the system.

Key Skills and Tools a) Metrics Collection and Monitoring

Prometheus: A popular open-source tool for gathering and querying metrics in time-series format.
Grafana: A dashboard and visualization tool commonly paired with Prometheus to create dynamic dashboards.
StatsD: A simple and powerful metric collection service used to collect data from services.
InfluxDB: A time-series database designed for storing metrics and events.

b) Logs Management

ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana): A suite of tools for centralizing and visualizing logs.
Fluentd: A tool for log aggregation, routing, and transformation.
Datadog Logs: A SaaS platform offering log aggregation, real-time search, and powerful analytics.
Jaeger: An open-source, end-to-end distributed tracing tool for monitoring and troubleshooting microservices-based architectures.
OpenTelemetry: An open-source framework for collecting telemetry data (traces, metrics, logs) from applications and infrastructure.
Zipkin: Another open-source distributed tracing tool.
Datadog APM: Application Performance Monitoring solution for collecting traces and metrics from services.

d) Alerting and Incident Management

Alertmanager: Often used with Prometheus to manage alert rules and notifications.
PagerDuty: Incident response platform for managing alerts and coordinating incident resolution.
Opsgenie: A similar incident management tool that integrates with various monitoring and alerting tools.
VictorOps: A tool for alert management and collaboration during incidents.
