--lrZ03NoBR/3+SXJZ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline NOTE: The position is within the IT organization at Juniper, of which I am not a part. I do not have first-hand knowledge of the working conditions, and cannot speak to that with authority. I would, however, encourage anyone intending to express interest to ask about anything that might be a concern -- preferably during the interview process. My bias would be to favor someone who wishes to encourage greater use of FreeBSD within Juniper (vs. greater use of other OSen); as indicated above, that's unlikely to be a significant factor for those who make the actual decision(s). Following excerpted from <http://www.juniper.net/us/en/company/careers/job-search/?912583>; please see that link for information on applying: Responsibilities As a senior systems administrator at Juniper Networks, you will have the opportunity to deliver new business capabilities in a fast-paced environment by leveraging cutting-edge technology and progressive techniques. We have a DevOps mindset, meaning the relationship between development, operations, and the business is the single most critical skill in our arsenal. So we are looking for candidates with excellent communication and organizational skills. This position also demands a candidate with deep technical knowledge in at least one operating system, exposure to multiple operating systems, and experience automating infrastructure and provisioning. Depth of knowledge in FreeBSD is a huge plus as we have a number of machines running FreeBSD. However, a lack of FreeBSD experience is not a blocker and candidates with depth in other operating systems could still be a good fit. Requirements: - Linux - Ruby or Perl - Shell scripting - 6+ years system administration experience in a heterogeneous environment - Infrastructure architecture and automation experience - Experience gathering requirements and working directly with the business Huge Plus: - FreeBSD - Solaris - CentOS / RedHat - Virtualization: ESX or KVM - Puppet/Chef - MySQL/Oracle/Postgres - OpenLDAP - Enterprise monitoring experience - NIS Server - Experience working on a global team - Apache - SSL certificates Nice To Have: - NAS / SAN - C / C++ / Java / Python - Cloud experience - Grid computing experience - Rails / Sinatra / Merb - AIX - OSX - Windows Peace, david --=20 David H.
