37signals is looking to hire a second system administrator to help manage our growing infrastructure. We are looking for someone who has solid experience running production web applications and good all around system administration skills. In particular, you should have strong experience with Apache, MySQL and the HTTP protocol. Some of the other software we rely on includes HAproxy, Mongrel, memcached, and Xen primarily running on RedHat Enterprise Linux or CentOS 5, with a handful of FreeBSD machines.
Experience with Cisco hardware and Ruby programming are a big plus, but attitude and enthusiasm are an even bigger one.
Details on how to apply at the Job Board.

on 31 Jul 08OMG, you’ll have to move to new office space. Or are you working on a sort of secret human-compression algorithm?

on 31 Jul 08New office space? Worst case, they’ll have to upgrade their Campfire account to the “Plus” level.
