Want to work at Engine Yard? (again)

Hey folks-

Due to overwhelming influx of new customers we need to find some more help ASAP.

Are you a hacker at heart? Do you know rails, capistrano, linux and sysadmin stuff? Can you learn fast things you don’t know? Can you solve problems on your own and work with many diverse technologies?

We are very much still a startup company so we work long hours, doing cool stuff. Everyone wears multiple hats.

We need some people that aren’t afraid of anything on this list:

linux
mongrel
rails
nginx
swiftiply
capistrano
ruby
mysql
postgres
subversion
python
lvs
xen
some advanced network knowledge
coraid experience
vlad
god

You don’t have to be an expert in all of these things, but you need to be willing to learn from us and on your own.

Work would consist of doing new customer deployments, customer support(tickets, phone), writing automation tools for anything you do more then twice and pitching in on some of our open source projects like rubinius or merb.

If this sounds good to you and you aren;’t afraid of hard work then you may be the person we are looking for. Please send a quick note about why you would kick ass at this job and include a resume and any ruby code or tales of sysadmin heroics you want to show us.

We need some folks to start ASAP like today even. It’s a bonus if you are in the east coast usa timezone or even australia would be good.

So drop me a line at info@engineyard.com and tell me why we should hire you and why you want to work for us.

Thanks!
