I'm looking to hire a fellow sysadmin with 2+ years experience. You will
work with me to help look after a couple dozen servers and as many desktops
and users. Two colo racks and one employee office, all in Johnson County.
The Office is at 13220 Metcalf, in South OP. No out of town travel
required.
We're a cyber security consultancy, small company with a casual workplace
environment.
Scripting is especially important to keep up with growing workloads.
Fluency isn't required in any language, but familiarity is expected in
any. Must be willing to manage multiple projects concurrently. For me
this means queuing in screen sessions, tabs, email labels.
There will occasionally be after-hours work. Particularly, time-sensitive
maintenance. Incident response can happen any time 24x7 as well, but is
quite rare.
Most production applications are Java or PHP on MySQL. Other staff do
development work, we facilitate deploys and keep it running smoothly once
it's out.
Since we are a managed security firm, any recent, non-trivial security work
would be a plus. The successful candidate must enjoy hands-on learning and
have a successful track record of technical problem solving and individual
accomplishment.
I'm particularly looking for an OSX and Apple hardware savant. That's the
most common desktop in use at the office, and it'd be nice if we had
someone on staff who could run circles around AppleCare any day.
I'm also particularly interested in someone who wants to eventually work
early hours e.g. 0200 to 1000 to increase clock coverage during which an
admin is ready to handle incidents. I realize that is a long shot however.
Some buzzwords:
OSX, Mandriva, Enterprise Linux, JAVA, Tomcat, Apache, VMWare, MySQL, PHP,
BASH, Expect, Cisco, Nagios, Cacti, Git, Atlassian Confluence, Jira,
Hudson, Screen, LDAP, Radius, SAN, Backups, Failover, Asterisk, BIND,
Google Apps, Documentation.
Let me know if I've left anything out. We haven't posted the position yet,
but we're looking for candidates. Please reply for more details if you are
looking for a job like this. Pay is good, but I shouldn't put a number in
public yet. I wan't to see who's out there.
