All, I may shortly be in the position of being able to hire a python systems programmer for a short contract (1-2 days initially to spike an ongoing project).
The ideal person will have the following: * Solid experience of Python for systems programming and database interaction * Familiarity with MySQL 5 - inserting and querying medium-sized databases with Python * Systems experience on RHEL or equivalent clone * Sysadmin experience on Unix / Linux with patching and package management systems * Experience in a high-availability environment, eg managed hosting. * Experience of working in an agile environment (test first, pairing) This is, of course, a shopping list, but is intended to give a sense of the sort of background I'm after. If this sounds like the sort of thing you'd be interested in, please contact me off list. Thanks, S. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
