This is just a quick note to say congratulations to my friends and colleagues at Savvis (my recently-former employer). A couple weeks ago Gartner announced their latest Magic Quadrant results for IaaS Cloud and Savvis is very solidly in the leadership category… maybe even in the #1 position, depending on how you look at it (i.e. if you look at it the way I do).
BTW – PhD Comics is awesome and great.
I frequently disagree with the perspective, but Mish’s Global Economic Trend Analysis is an informative blog. An interesting graph recently caught my attention:
I don’t normally post directly work-related stuff here. As my personal blog, the content here reflects only my individual views and/or thoughts; I am not a spokesperson and nothing posted here represents Savvis. However…
I’m hiring two IP Address Engineers and need to fill the positions quickly.
The IP Address Engineer is accountable for the assignment, recovery, and ongoing management of IP Addresses at Savvis. Responsibilities include updating internal systems to reflect assigned IPs, updating relevant external Regional Internet Registry (RIR) and/or Internet Routing Registry (IRR) databases, and ensuring a timely response to any outstanding tickets and/or email requests.
Please see http://tinyurl.com/svvsIPadmin for the complete job description and application link.
If you’re an IPAM expert with years of service provider experience working with RIRs and customers, you’d be perfect. If you only know the fundamentals of IP addressing, subnet masks / CIDR notation, etc, then you’re still probably a good fit for the job. We can teach you everything else you’ll need to know. Alternatively if you know a little about databases, data modeling and analysis, Perl or Java or any other programming language, then I’ll happily teach you about IP addressing.
Entry-level candidates are fine. I’d prefer people in St. Louis, MO, but would consider any other locations where Savvis has an office (such as Cary, NC, Reston, VA, and Santa Clara, CA).
Feel free to contact me with questions and/or recommendations.
I’ve been delayed posting the follow up to my previous post Network Virtual Appliances Are Silly, for reasons I’ll go into later. Sorry. But for now, I’ll continue to post other stuff as usual. For instance I came across this video, via Nebraska never looked so appealing: anatomy of a zombie attack. Oops, I mean a recession.
