Isn't this what the entire DevOps movement is kinda trying to push? I see quite a few of these gigs pop up on Craigslist. If you've already invested some time in the search, perhaps it'd be better to hire someone good with C/PHP and train them in the art of networking. If you're located in a major city, I'm sure you can find a community college that has a networking certificate program you can send your developer to, along with an in-house training program. Just a thought. Best of luck. :) On Sun, Feb 26, 2012 at 5:27 PM, A. Pishdadi <apishdadi@gmail.com> wrote:
Hello All,
i have been looking for quite some time now a descent coder (c,php) who has a descent amount of system admin / netadmin experience. Doesn't necessarily need to be an expert at network engineering but being acclimated in understanding the basic fundamentals of networking. Understanding basic routing concepts, how to diagnose using tcpdump / pcap, understanding subnetting and how bgp works (not necessarily setting up bgp). I've posted job listings on the likes of dice and monster and have not found any good canidates, most of them ASP / Java guys.
If anyone can point me to a site they might recommend for job postings or know of any consulting firms that might provide these services that would be greatly appreciated.
