Hi all,

We're in need of a SysAdmin/Developer in Training type of person.  The
company, VirtualGiveaway, that I work for uses the
Linux/Apache/mod_perl/mysql combo almost exclusively in our backend
production infrastructure. We are currently in need of someone who has
more of the System Administrative skills to help manage these boxes
(which will grow) and the mod_perl based web application built on them.
Specifically, I'm looking for someone who has a good understanding of PC
hardware, who knows enough of the ins and outs of installing, compiling,
configuring linux (distr. flavor doesn't matter), apache,  mod_perl,
mysql and securing these boxes for deployment on the Internet.  This
would be a good position for someone who has good Linux sys admin
skills, is at least familiar with the combo I've described above, and
looking for an opportunity to develop mod_perl programming skills.

Finding someone who can manage the boxes while developing a strong
understanding of what's going on at the application level is the goal
here.

I've provided a formal job/company description below for those who are
interested. Please reply to me and not the list.

thank you,
Sang
