Subject: Contract role, SA or Unix friendly NOC techie needed!
Contract, Linux Systems Administrator -
This is a contract role to help our Senior Linux Systems Administrator
with data center work, and an opportunity to learn about VoIP.
Marchex has partnered with Skype, a leading global VoIP provider, to
build a dynamic advertising and analytics platform that has the
potential to transform the call advertising industry.
About Marchex Call Products
Our product is new, being built from the ground up with changes daily,
rolling out new features on a weekly basis. This is an amazing
opportunity to partner with a very engaged team of developers, QA and
Systems Engineers all on their toes trying to push the envelope of what
this product can do!
* Do you have a curiosity and interest in learning about voice
quality and monitoring for a large scale VoIP product?* Does
thinking about how to utilize resources on the scale of 200 servers
effectively and efficiently sound like the kind of problems you'd like
to learn how to solve?
