Hi!
Does the sight of a poorly formatted, though syntactically valid, =
configuration file make at least one of your eyelids twitch?
Have you ever disowned a family member after failing to convince them to =
back up their systems properly?
Have you ever spent an evening compulsively labeling cables in an =
operational rack?
If you answered =93Yes, oh God, yes!!=94 to at least 2 of the 3 =
questions above, AND you have a sound operational knowledge of =
Enterprise SAN, NAS and general networking products as well as the =
ability to actually make a VMWare host boot over iSCSI after creating =
both sides of the necessary configuration from scratch, then you =
probably have what it takes to be iXsystems=92 new system administrator!
You=92re also probably a busy person, and you=92re fully capable of =
using a web browser, so I won=92t bore you with details about the =
company you can already find here:
http://www.ixsystems.com/resources/ix/our-company/
I will say that we=92re long-time supporters of the FreeBSD community, =
sponsoring events and conferences, and we use FreeBSD extensively =
in-house for pretty much well, everything! We also build our own =
FreeBSD-based NAS appliances, an area you=92ll have ample opportunity to =
get your hands into if you=92re even remotely inclined towards software =
development, assuming you=92re able to even find the time to do so after =
dealing with all of the constant infrastructural challenges you=92ll =
face here! We=92re busy folks. There=92s a lot going on.
This is a full-time position with all work to be done primarily on-site =
at iXsystem=92s International World Headquarters in beautiful San Jose, =
CA.
OK, OK, so it=92s a warehouse, and if you think San Jose is beautiful =
then we don=92t even want to know where you live now, but both get the =
job done here in the heart of California=92s Silicon Valley. Anything =
we lack in ambiance we more than make up for by being=85 quirky and =
different! In any case, hours are flexible, but we definitely need you =
on-site. There=92s equipment to lift! Wires to connect! CPU fans to =
lick!
This job offers a competitive salary, full heath benefits, a weight =
room, a band practice area, and all the bad snack food you can eat as =
only some of the benefits. We also employ more than a few FreeBSD =
folks, both locally and remotely, so you=92ll be rubbing shoulders with =
some of the best (or if not the best, at least the loudest).
Interested? If so, please reply with a current resume or some =
reasonable facsimile thereof and we=92ll take things from there!
Thanks,
- Jordan=
