You have proven exceptional at maths and sciences, and are looking for a technical leadership role without management responsibility.
Your technology interests are diverse and may include cloud computing, IoT, or Linux itself. You have a gift for software design and implementation, and enjoy contributing to a highly professional environment with careful choices of technology, architecture, data design, and user interface. You have broad-based knowledge of Linux, networking, software development, databases, API design and possibly web presentation layers.
You can demonstrate insight into performance and quality engineering practices in your field, and you have helped teams embrace effective disciplines on both fronts. You also have an understanding of security practices and principles and the impact that engineering choices have on product security.
You have experience producing well-documented products and working with design professionals to shape the product. You have clearly articulated views on the ways engineering practices influence product outcomes, not just technically but in open source communities and in the marketplace.
You have deep experience with either or both Python and Golang. You may also have front-end web engineering experience, which is an advantage in this role.
It is an advantage to be able to point to open source work of your own which demonstrates these strengths.
This is a role for leadership, architecture, design and mentorship, not individual contribution through coding, but it may require periods of code spike to establish key frameworks, APIs or interfaces. You should, in other words, relish the opportunity to write code while being most interested in helping an engineering team produce a great product that will be a pleasure to use and to evolve.
This role is a path to technical leadership in the following areas:
In applying for this role you will need to demonstrate both exceptional technical skill, broad based knowledge of the modern open source software arena, proven mathematics or engineering ability, and the ability to articulate ideas and motivate others to embrace your thinking.
