For those of you who know me, this position is for a counterpart to me.  We
would be working side by side, so if you don't like me, don't apply.  ;-p
If you do like me, and the description, you can apply at
http://www.rightthinginc.com.  I do not have a direct link to the job
posting, so consider finding it on our new site part of the screening
process! ;-)  Seriously though, aside from not having direct links to some
pages, the site is pretty nice, so it should be fairly obvious.

I highly recommend this company as an employer.  The people here are great,
the space is comfortable, the pay is solid, the benefits are excellent, and
paid time off is very generous.

The engineering team here, which I and this position are affectively a part
of, are very open minded when it comes to hires.  We have hired Java
developers with no Java experience, for example.  We are mainly looking for
good thinkers who know how to solve new unique and mundane problems (got
google?), so don't worry if you don't feel you have much of the specific
experience below.  As long as you know your way around Linux enough to step
very carefully when needed, are open to some non-standard setups, and love
to learn new technologies around *nix servers, you should do all right.

Good luck if you are interested, and if not, please help spread the word!
Thanks!
