Resend: Looking for one or two software developers
I just sent this message out in my normal manner, with a digital signature. It seems that some MUAs, including those that should know better, such as gmail, make it almost impossible to read digitally signed messages; people get the impression that the message is empty. So to save pain, here's the entire message again, this time without a digital signature (so the only way you can be really sure it's from me is to compare the two :-) -- start original message -- If you're looking for a job, you'll probably know the job advertisements at http://www.mysql.com/company/jobs/, many of which are available anywhere in the world. Most MySQL people work from home in a way very similar to the way we work in the FreeBSD project. In particular, I'd like to draw your attention to the positions for Senior Software Developer - DB Internals (http://www.mysql.com/company/jobs/sr_software_developer_db_internals.html) and Software Developer - DB Maintenance (http://www.mysql.com/company/jobs/software_developer_db_maint.html). So why am I sending this message? I'm personally looking for one or two clever people to work in the online backup team. This is a project which we hope to complete in about 6 months (so it probably won't take more than a year). The positions are "permanent", however, so this means that the people on the backup team will then move on to other jobs within MySQL that are suited to their abilities. It would be nice to get more BSD people in MySQL: there are quite a few already, but not enough! I've found MySQL to be the only company I've ever worked for that really understands the Open Source development mentality. It's really a lot of fun (yes, they're paying me, but not to say that :-) If you're interested, contact me and I can give you more information.
