The Field Engineering team is our team of cloud solutions architects at Canonical, working directly with our customers, designing private and public cloud solutions fitting their workload needs.

The portfolio of products includes on-premise cloud solutions such as Openstack, MicroCloud and Ceph, and solutions that could be deployed either on-premises or in public clouds such as Kubernetes, Kubeflow, Spark, PostgreSQL, etc.  The team works hands-on with the technologies by deploying, testing and handing over the solution to our support or managed services team at the end of a project.

Managers and team members also take part in presales conversations to provide technical advice during the sales process.

A Solution Architecture Manager is responsible for line management and career guidance.

You are also expected to actively participate in technical presales to help our department achieve our quarterly goals.
