Corporate Culture
The client is dedicated to maintaining a best-of-breed approach in every aspect of their business. Their choice of investors, executive management, and employees is guided by a desire to assemble the most highly qualified team possible.
Many of their consultants write articles and books, blog, and speak at conferences on the latest tools and trends in the industry. Their consultants take advantage of the opportunity to donate their time and code to open source projects.
They believe in being aggressive and passionately pursuing their business goals. However, they also strive to ensure that their priorities remain grounded and that they do not let the effort to reach their goals distract from their responsibilities to their employees, clients, and investors.
Benefits
Recognizing the need to attract and retain quality employees, the client offers an exceptional health care benefit package, dental coverage and a 401-K plan.
Their Group Health Insurance Plan is Trigon KeyCare 10 Plus. They have extended their basic offerings by adding coverage for a prescription drug plan and well baby care. They contribute the full premium payment for each employee, including 100% contribution to the coverage of spouses and children.
We're looking for a Linux guru (or aspiring Linux guru) to be involved in the most intense aspects of running our email hosting system, which is made almost entirely of open source software running on hundreds of Linux servers. Your role will be to remotely manage these servers and set up new servers via ssh. The fun things you'll get to do include installing and configuring software, troubleshooting misbehaving servers, playing with the latest beta versions of common software, solving scalability problems, and constantly thinking of new ways to make your life easier by scripting everything that you can think of to automate these processes.
If you want your paycheck:
Your responsibilities to the customers (the people who pay us the big bucks) include:
** Thinking, creating, pushing farther, developing new ways to build and support our servers
** Constantly making our system bigger and better
** Resolving escalated support issues quickly, efficiently, and courteously
** Keeping yourself educated and up to date on our industry, our products, and our services;
Your responsibilities to your co-workers (the people pounding at your door) include:
** Educating and answering questions about new products and features
** Understanding how changes you make affect their jobs and their ability to help our customers.
** Responding quickly and efficiently to any questions they have about customer tickets
Important skills and characteristics:
** Being innately savvy when it comes to technology
** Possessing a strong desire to work hard and learn new things
You're going to do just fine here if...
...you're a geek at heart, love working with highly motivated people, and can describe tinkering with technology 50+ hours a week as a "good time".
