Work from home for the only company still operating from the beginning 
of it all! No Venture Captial, No Debt, No missed paychecks, No B.S. 
Just honest, consulting and support for the PostgreSQL Centered Stack!

Command Prompt, Inc. is looking for an intermediate systems 
administrator and PostgreSQL administrator.

Command Prompt has provided PostgreSQL support, development, and hosting 
since 1997. We are looking for another person to join our stellar group 
of PostgreSQL systems experts.

We seek someone who has a deep knowledge of at least one UNIX-like 
system (preferably Linux), and who knows how to manage heterogeneous 
systems. You can demonstrate strong skills in basic systems 
administration. You have a clear understanding of how to administer 
several systems that are mostly the same, but that have small local 
differences. If you do not feel comfortable saying, "I'm not familiar 
with that in your environment," then reading the man page, and coming 
back with a test plan for deployment that will reveal problems with your 
strategy, this is not a job for you. The ability to imagine, propose, 
test, and deliver perfectly-integrated and easily-maintained solutions 
to users' problems is the key to success in this position. You work well 
in a team: you don't have to work 24 hours a day, because other people 
can always log into any system you maintain and know where everything 
is, how it got there, and how to add new things if they're needed.

You must know basic PostgreSQL administration (or be willing to learn 
it, quickly), and understand how to set up, operate, and tune Postgres 
in elementary ways, such as installing from a package manager. You do 
not have to be a PostgreSQL guru, but if you are, that is a bonus.

You have systems administration capability with shell scripts, as well 
as either Perl or Python. As well as understanding (or quick to pick up) 
technologies such as DRBD and LVM2.

You have an interest in working on varied projects that use varied (and 
sometimes legacy) technologies.

Command Prompt is a professional services company. You will be 
interfacing with customers, therefore customer service and 
professionalism is key.

Command Prompt employees usually work from their home offices. The 
position normally requires minimal travel. For this position, the 
successful candidate will be able to communicate effectively in English. 
English as a spoken second language is fine as long as the written 
skills are clear and effective.

This is a remote position and does not require residence in the United 
States.

Applicants should send a resume to Angela Roberson, 
angela(at)commandprompt(dot)com, with the words "intermediate 
administrator" in the Subject line. Please include any text by way of a 
cover letter in the body of your email and not as a separate attachment.
