Covenant Eyes posted about a job listing on their blog a couple weeks back and linked to a jobs.stackoverflow.com listing. It has since disappeared (somebody got the job?), but I managed to snag it from Google’s cache. Here it lies. And here is an excerpt that I rather thought cuts to the technical juice.
At this moment we use the following technologies:
* Python w/Django
* C/C++/C#/Objective C/
* PHP
* CentOS 5
* MySQL 4 and 5
* VMWare
Our ideal candidate has the following experiences:
* Highly experienced in Object Oriented design and related software development
practices, preferably in an Agile environment
* Experience using Python or other web scripting language to deliver enterprise web
applications
* Experience with TDD, Pair Programming, and other eXtreme Programming practices
* Experienced with Linux and VMWare
* Communicates well with both technical and non-technical team members
* Bachelors degree in Computer Science, or equivalent (5+ yrs.) work experience.
While it might not be that interesting of post materiel to start the new blog off with, it does provide a small technical window into the mysterious and hush-hush world of the Covenant Eyes behind the scenes. I think it should be preserved for those interested.
Also, an irony lies in using Linux but not producing a Linux product for the end user. Depending on how things go, you may hear more on the subject at a broken mold in the future. I’m hopeful.
Aside
As a small note, regarding the blog, everything seems to be working on the outside. We have some permissions issues on the inside; hopefully we can get the more irritating one(s) solved soon. And… the database is working fine. The filesystem is where it gets sticky.
