From ike at blackskyresearch.net Thu Feb 6 17:22:46 2014 From: ike at blackskyresearch.net (Isaac (.ike) Levy) Date: Thu, 06 Feb 2014 22:22:46 +0000 Subject: Contract Projects: Juniper/HP Networking Surgical Strikes Message-ID: <201402062222.s16MMka2015729@rs102.luxsci.com> Hi All, My company is in need of some "Network Surgical Strikes", with Juniper/HP gear. We have some one-off contract projects, and *advanced* experience with Mostly Juniper, (and some HP) switches is a must. -------- The good - Willing to pay for experienced people capable of getting in/out quickly - IP/L3 topology relatively organized ------- The bad - Our current networks are in an "interesting" state, (read: some vlan and spanning tree abuses). - This is *not* new buildout work, this is strictly duct tape projects, while we're building out a new environment. ------------ Other things - You'll be interacting directly with me, so if you know me already from NYC*BUG, you'll know you won't get jerked around. - Tech: Spanning Tree, VLAN tagging, VPN's (just on the Junipers) - While this is not long-term work, we're really delighted to establish relationships with people who deliver solid work. If you're interested, feel free to email me off-list. Thanks!

Marco http://canary.theresumator.com/apply/XjpaWB/Embedded-Unix-Architect.html?source=nycbug Hi, we?re Canary? a NYC-based startup that helps people connect to their family, their community and their homes in new ways.

Learn more at http://canary.is, and our successful Indiegogo campaign. This position will work closely with Canary?s Hardware Engineering and Software Engineering teams to turn raw A/D values into meanful real world events from our device's diverse sensor suite (3 MP Camera, temperature, humidity, air quality and a few others). We hope you find this exciting and come armed with a bag of tricks and excitement about problem solving. * Duties & Responsibilities + Building a light weight deployment, packaging system.

Net-BSD, ports) + Mastery of cross compilation, porting packages to embedded architecture and securing embedded systems. * Perks: + Located in the heart of SOHO. + Catered Lunches. + Kitchen stocked with snacks and drinks. * About Canary: There are a lot of ?smart home? companies out there trying to ?connect? things - dishwashers, lights, fridges, TVs, crock-pots, etc. At Canary we prefer to solve problems. We started with home security because it?s a need shared by hundreds of millions of people around the globe. We know because we?ve already sold Canary in 78 countries, and proved through our Indiegogo campaign (the most successful ever) that there?s a real demand for affordable intelligent home security. Rather than just preventing the bad (including burglaries, fires and nosy landlords), Canary also helps out in other ways whether it?s letting users watch their kids play during the middle of the day or providing a digital neighborhood watch while they?re on vacation. The goal for our first product is to make a security device that people want to interact with on a daily basis. We're looking for awesome people who love toppling giants, working autonomously in small teams, solving challenging problems, and developing solutions for actual people. Oh, and we will train you on how to make hilarious slow-mo videos (Pro tip: it?s all in the facial expressions).
