**Applications must include cover letter to be considered complete. Please read the application instructions carefully.
The Open Planning Project (TOPP) is a `dot-org`, a non-profit connecting technology with social change. OpenGeo is the geospatial division of TOPP: a social enterprise that operates like a traditional business but reinvests profits back into TOPP’s initiatives. The OpenGeo Systems Administrator will sit on the TOPP Sysadmin team while working primarily with OpenGeo.
RESPONSIBILITIES
The OpenGeo team develops spatial web services based on Java and clients in JavaScript. Our primary technology stack consists of Linux, Postgresql with a spatial extension, Jetty or Tomcat to run our servlets. We use webservers for static content and proxying. Additionally, we provide a few services to the projects we are involved in, such as Trac, Wordpress, and build bots for automated testing. A system administrator dedicated to this team provides a platform for running these services, as well as a supporting role for a team of 9 highly dedicated software developers and outreach engineers. There may also be some consulting work for clients, either to avoid scalability issues or to help debug problems on production servers.
QUALIFICATIONS
The position provides you with the chance to design the infrastructure that you think is best suited to get the job done. A good candidate should therefore be analytical, self-driven and able to handle multiple tasks. We emphasize understanding fundamental concepts and being able to find more information, as opposed to experience with advanced tools. For instance, you should be familiar with /proc and the various tools used to extract information from this resource, as well as manually query HTTP based services.
Based on the existing infrastructure, a successful candidate should have in-depth knowledge of at least *one* tool in each category listed below, and preferably peripheral knowledge of a second.
• Operating systems: Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris
• Web servers: Apache, Lighttpd, Nginx
• Scripting languages: PHP, Python, Perl
• Shell scripting: bash or any other
• Network tools: Wireshark, ngrep or equivalent
• Virtualization: KVM, Xen, OpenVZ, Virtualbox
• Firewalling: iptables, ipfilter, ipfirewall, packetfilter,
• Databases: MySQL, Postgresql, Oracle
• Authentication: LDAP, Kerberos
ADDITIONAL RELEVANT SKILLS:
• Experience with Java servlets / servlet containers
• Configuration of switches and VLANs, mainly Cisco
• Experience deploying applications on cloud services
• Understanding of basic encryption and authentication, certificates and signatures
• Experience specifically with Red Hat / CentOS and Gentoo
• Email systems, DNS, VoIP, wireless networking
WE OFFER
OpenGeo invests in the best people and treat them right. We offer competitive salaries and great benefits (all the basics, plus five weeks of vacation and free lunch). You will be surrounded by friendly, smart, passionate people.
