#### VP Engineering <span style="color:#999; margin-left: 10px; font-weight: 400;">May 21 - Present</span> | ||

As VP Engineering (Enterprise Solutions), I lead the development of [Juju] and the ecosystem of | ||
[charms] that deliver an enterprise-grade data platform, observability platform, machine learning | ||
operations platform and more. I also lead the Starcraft team, responsible for the delivery of | ||
Canonical's "craft" tooling (snapcraft, charmcraft, rockcraft, etc.). | ||
In January 2025, I was appointed the VP Engineering for [Ubuntu] at [Canonical], assuming | ||
leadership of the Ubuntu Desktop, Server and Foundations teams. I wrote about this appointment and | ||
my thoughts on it in [Engineering Ubuntu For The Next 20 Years]. | ||
|
||
My technical reach extends beyond my own projects as a trusted advisor to those my junior and | ||
senior. I'm frequently involved in engineering decisions behind Ubuntu, LXD, MAAS, Multipass and | ||
Canonical Kubernetes. | ||

My reach extends beyond my own projects as a trusted advisor to those my junior and | ||

|

My day-to-day focus is on the development of the directors, managers and senior ICs in my | ||
organisation that enables them to move confidently and autonomously. I have grown the organisation | ||
from around 25 to almost 100 in a little over two years, while maintaining high engagement across | ||
the board. | ||
