[ALE-jobs] Help needed with a job opening I have

Thu Apr 25 15:00:10 EDT 2013

ALE Members,
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. GTRI also sponsors master's degrees from Georgia Tech if that is something that is of interest to you.
Thank you for your help,
Christian Radakovich

Linux System Administrator

--------------------

Candidate would be responsible for the day-to-day operational health of

approximately 100 systems both baremetal and virtual.  These systems

are running Ubuntu Server 64-bit with configuration management via puppet.

They are responsible for a fairly complex automated malware analysis

and threat sharing platform comprised of a number of pieces of software

including but not limited to Apache ActiveMQ, MongoDB, python 2.7,

Apache, ZeroMQ, and VMware ESXi.  Portions of the system require

baremetal analysis with Windows-based operating systems (currently only XP SP2).

Other parts of the system involve using kvm virtualization with Windows

XP

SP2 images (soon to be additional versions).  When pieces of this

system are down, the candidate should be able to identify the issue

(either through monitoring or through servicing trouble tickets) and

remedy the situation as quickly as possible (within the 8x5 workweek;

no after-hours or on call necessary).

As a part of this support, the candidate would be responsible for

maintaining the overarching application using public and in-house

developed monitoring and configuration tools.  The candidate would

monitor and document issues with respect to hardware failures and

capacity Planning.

Familiarity with continuous delivery infrastructure is preferable.

Additionally, architectural design work is highly preferred to identify

issues that impede efficient servicing of analysis or client requests.

Designing and maintaining an active backup site--particularly how the

two sites interact and cooperate when both are in full operation--is

also a plus.

Required:

1) Strong problem solving skills

2) Strong background with administering Linux systems

3) U.S. Citizen

4) Must be capable of obtaining a U.S. Department of Defense SECRET clearance.

Preferred:

1) Cisco networking experience
