[TriLUG] JOB

[Anders Grimsrud]

TriLUG group,

I hope I'm doing this right.... I believe I'm following the rules but if 
not I humbly apologize.

I run a small software company in Apex with a heterogeneous compute 
environment but heavily Linux. My system admin has decided to start a 
job elsewhere developing iOS apps and I find myself looking for a new 
sys admin. This might be a great opportunity for some of you. Please see 
job/company description below.

Thanks,

Anders Grimsrud
