Hey, we have a position open where we need someone with some linux experience and a bit of scripting.

Don't worry about what the posting says, this is what we are looking for.

Someone that knows the linux file system. How to update repos for CentOS/Fedora/RedHat.

How to use the command line. Processes, network ports open, and the like.

Basic scripting. It can be bash, perl, ruby, python. If you know any sort of coding/scripting it will do. The key factor is that you have an core understanding of Linux.

About the job and environment.

Sage is a laid back company with a very lax dress code. The hours are flexible, and it is a good group of people to work with.

We are located right near Discover Mills Mall.

Let me know if you have any interest.

Eric
