I just started a LinkedIn group called Cassandra NoSQL
http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=2822930 I invite folks to join as
it has a job board and is a good place for networking stuff too =8^)

I look forward to the continued nitty gritty that goes on here perhaps
the linked in discussions can grow and help others discuss less
tactical items and continue to making this project a success.

Anything I can do to help (perhaps even on the development side if my
time ever frees up)

I know this is not an un-biased suggestion either, but just to let
everyone know, it's very easy to create one's own network at Ning
(http://ning.com).
One could be span up in 5 minutes for specific purpose of matching job
seekers  employers, within context of expertise with NoSQL systems
(specifically with Cassandra or others). :-)
And from thereon, links to LinkedIn profiles would obviously make sense as well.

 wouldnt nosqlgigs.com ala djangogigs.com be simpler than ning? Seems
 like this could/should be about a 1-2 hour job for someone to stand
 up?

It all depends. Just wanted to mention it -- Ning networks are general
purpose, not optimized for specific use.
That is both a plus and minus: you can make it anything you want (as
in, job searching; context of no-sql technologies, maybe even specific
systems), but it is not by default optimized for that purpose. It is
very quick set up tho, certainly much less than an hour for basic
thing. I did my network in 5 minutes a year ago. And then you can
spend lotsa time for customizing it over time, get hooked and all that
stuff.

But I really just wanted to mention it as a possible way, there are
n+1 ways to go.

And yes, this worked very well for the original applicant, which is
great. I just hope it will not become too popular a discussion
subject. :-)

Looking for work

2010-03-02 Thread Peter Halliday
I'm looking for work.  My previous employer was a non-profit that lost
funding and my position was cut.  I would love to find a position that
utilizes Cassandra.  I have experience in programming using Python, Perl,
PHP, and C/C++ (mostly Python and Perl).  I have experiencing with system
and network administration as well.  I certainly would be willing to send a
resume talking about my experience more.

If you are willing to relocate to Pasadena, OpenX is hiring (feel free to
forward me a resume if interested).  I may have to question Digg's claim
to first to production.  We were running 0.3.0 in production last August
and currently have 3 deployments spread over 30 machines in EC2, so heavy
users.
