We are about to have 2 openings on our team for senior UNIX admins. Here are the basics of what you should know:

- Sun Solaris 8, 9, 10 (sol10 sparc and x86)
- Familiar with sparc hardware (240's, 280's, 440's, 880's mainly)
- Weblogic
- Sun Iplanet and Sun One Webserver
- DNS (Bind)
- Sendmail
- NIS
- UNIX security
- SH/KSH Shell scripting
- Veritas Volume Manager
- Solstice Disk Suite
- Veritas Netbackup
- Experience in an enterprise network (1500+ users, 500,000+ customers, 200+ servers)
- Must be able to work with Developers
- Must be able to meet strict deadlines

The good: Company is very stable, UNIX isn't going anywhere so job is very secure. Pay is good, benefits are excellent, environment isn't bad. Our environment deals only with the internet side of our company so there is never a dull moment.

The bad: Oncall pager. You carry it for a week at a time. Right now there are 4 of us so we each have it once a month. It pages alot. The commute can be a PITA depending on where you're at. We are in Chevy Chase, MD.

If you're interested in this position, email me your resume. trak.rdy@gmail.com is my email. This is for SENIOR level admins only. Sorry, entry level or junior admins need not apply. If you want more details on the job, email me your resume and if it looks like you could possibly fit, I'll tell you more. Thanks.

 

fuck that lol, i kno people that do UNIX, and they are pullin hair where there is no hair lol

 

They must be ex microsoft admins cause there isn't a GUI anymore.. UNIX doesn't make any of us pull our hair out.. Works like a champ for everything!

 

The guy i work with is rhct, setup our sendmail server, dns server, and know most of that stuff or can learn, I will let him know....seeing if he wants to move to MD, I know he wants to get out of this area so he just might.....I will keep you up with the info.

 

I would to it, but im only 19 and dont know everything about unix yet..

 

Just notice its for senior level, how many years of experence is senior?

 

Typically a senior position of anything requires at least 8-10 years experience.

Junior position is typically at least 5 years.

To the thread starter, post company name and company website. Let the people get to know the company (unless its a position that requires a secret clearance, in which case that should be mentioned in the first post, in addition to what type of clearance).

 

This is true. There are also other things that also determine whether you are senior or not like the size of the network, number of users, size of servers, number of servers, etc...

The job is with geico.. Specifically geico.com.

 

Well the guy that I work with does not have 8-10 years of experence, but knows his stuff and does nothing at work but learn more...right now he is going for his rhce does he have a chance to be able to work for the company

 

Than why do yall have an on-call pager.......and like you stated...it goes off alot


*is trained for windows servers...not unix*

Unix to me is foreign.....Ive allways used NT,windows2k server....moved onto window2003 server and loving it......
