Hello, Yahoo!, the little internet portal that could, has a number of openings for unixy people. It's not secret that Yahoo! is using FreeBSD for a large portion of their hosts, but the job requirements are in general not all that operating system specific. I consider NetBSD people to be mostly of the smarter group, so I figured I'd post this mail here, too. Since there are multiple openings, I won't send the whole job posting, just the one-line summary. If you're interested, please contact me indicating which position(s) you're interested in and consider yourself qualified for. The overall sales pitch for the company goes something like this: "Think about impacting 1 out of every 2 people online--in innovative and imaginative ways that are uniquely Yahoo!. We do just that each and every day, and you could too. After all, it's big thinkers like you who will create the next generation of Internet experiences for consumers and advertisers across the globe. Now's the time to show the world what you've got. Put your ideas to work for over half a billion people." In addition, Y! is a very fun place to work, and there are few places that operate on a scale like this, so you get to solve problems that others won't ever encounter. Anyway, the following are the current openings we have: - Systems Security Engineer http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24441 - Infrastructure Manager- Storage& Data Protection http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24445 - Storage QA Engineer http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24446 - Sr. System Administrator http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24451 - Sr. Software Engineer http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24454 - Senior Systems Engineer/Architect Traffic Management (DNS) http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24459 - Network Engineer- Backbone http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24505 - Network QA Engineer http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24514 - Storage QA http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24520 - Senior Software QA Engineer http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24521 - Network QA Engineer http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24522 - Datacenter Ops Engineer-Lab http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24515 - Network Security Operations Engineer http://careers.yahoo.com/jdescription.php?frm=jsres&oid=24606 All positions are preferably in Sunnyvale, CA, USA. Some positions may offer a location of Burbank, CA, USA; Dallas, TX, USA. All positions require various degrees of familiarity with FreeBSD and RHEL. Almost all involve being part of an on-call rotation. I can't promise to respond to all inquiries, but I will forward resumes of qualified candidates. Of course you should feel free to just apply directly via the above links. -Jan
