Hello.  My name is Marianne Dove.  I'm a recruiter for Google.  Google 
is
currently seeking several Unix experts for a couple of positions in 
Dublin,
Ireland or Mountain View, California.  I ran across your name while I 
was
conducting a Google search for possible candidates in the hopes of
networking with as many Unix experts as possible.  With your experience 
and
probable contacts in the Unix community, would you happen to know of 
anyone
that may be interested in Engineering positions at Google?  Would you be
interested in this opportunity?

This is such a great opportunity, and Google is seeking the very best
Engineers from around the world and I feel there must be dozens of Unix
experts out there.  I'm hoping I can find some of them through 
networking
with you.  I've attached a few job descriptions.  If you happen to know 
of
any that may be interested, please feel free to forward this email to 
them
and have them contact me directly.   I hope you are not bothered by my
networking attempt.  Or if by some streak of fortune on my part, if you 
are
interested, please let me know.  :-)   Thank you for your consideration 
and
time.

Sincerely,

Marianne Dove

Senior Software Engineer, Google.com (SRE)
Positions based in Dublin Ireland.

Are you part ace coder, part adrenalin junkie? Do you have a knack for
seeing a problem and immediately discerning the likely solution? Maybe
you've been coding for years, are bored with the old
design-build-review-test-ship-repeat routine, and yearn for some
faster-paced challenges? Or perhaps you're a seasoned software engineer 
who
is also a genius at jockeying networks and administering UNIX clusters.

We're looking for top-notch thrill seeking, software engineers to join 
the
Google.com team. Google.com engineers are in the thick of everything
involved with keeping Google running, from code-level troubleshooting of
traffic anomalies to maintenance of our most cutting edge services; from
monitoring and alerts to building new automation infrastructure. We are
aggressively building this elite team of high level engineers in this
mission critical environment. All team members must have strong 
analytical
and troubleshooting skills, fluency in coding, good communication 
skills,
and most of all enthusiasm for tackling the complex problems of scale 
which
are uniquely Google. Google.com engineers tackle challenging, novel
situations every day, and work with just about every other engineering 
and
operations team in the process.

Qualifications:
.Strong programming/scripting skills in any of the following: Python, C,
C++, Java, Perl
.BA/BS in CS, or equivalent experience.
.In-depth knowledge of Unix (preferably Linux), networking, and shell
scripting.
.Proven technical troubleshooting experience.
.Excellent analytic ability, strong communication skills, and a strong 
sense
of urgency.
.Ability to handle periodic on-call duty as well as out-of-band 
requests.
.5+ years experience in a similar position a big plus.
.Experience with Unix system administration a plus.
