[JOB] mod_perl engineers (all levels) at Red Hat - SF Bay Area

[Paul Lindner <pl...@redhat.com>]

Hi folks,

I am now in the position to hire two or more full-time web engineers
for the redhat.com site.  The large majority of our infrastructure is
built up using perl, mod_perl handlers and Apache::ASP.  If you love
perl and believe in the spirit of open source, you'll love working
here.  

We prefer that people work at our offices in San Francisco or
Sunnyvale, California, but will do our best to accomodate any great
candidate!

I've attached a preliminary job description that gives a little more
detail.  Please respond to me directly with any questions.

Respectfully yours,
Paul Lindner
Web Engineering Manager
