<p class="MsoNormal">ALE Members,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am sure you get postings sent out like this all the time so I want to apologize if it is a nuisance to your group but I am trying to be as respectful as I can in this situation by giving you all the information upfront and not playing
any “games”. I am a recruiter and have been working on a position for the past few weeks. I was hoping that someone could help me out. The position is with one of the labs at Georgia Tech Research Institute and they are in need of a Linux Systems Admin with
a minimum of 4 years’ experience. They are looking for an individual who is comfortable with scripting as they are currently using Puppet to do their config management. The pay range (depending on experience ) is between 65K and 75K. I have attached the detailed
job description below and any leads would be greatly appreciated<b>. GTRI also sponsors master’s degrees from Georgia Tech</b> if that is something that is of interest to you.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for your help,<br>
Christian Radakovich</p>
