[Gnhlug-jobs] Referral / Jerry Feldman - LINUX Kernel S/W Engineer post / Marlb oro, MA

[Jeff Harrod]

Referral from Jerry Feldman - (blu.org)

My client is based in Boston, MA, I am based in the UK, London.  Hence my
network is not as extensive in the US so I approached Jerry for some
assistance in getting the job specification out to the Boston Linux
community.

My personal background is Linux so I can discuss this role in great detail.

Cheers
Jeff
