[ale] OT: Open java development position

[Tejus Parikh]

Hey everyone,

With all the pessimistic talk about the future of IT jobs in the
country, I thought I might pass this along to you all.  

The company that I'm working for has an immediate need for two
full-time, salaried JAVA developers, preferably one entry-level (1-2
years) and one junior level (3-5 years). The only problem, the job
requires relocation to Banglore, India.

J/K!  Actually, the job must be filled by somebody living in metro
Atlanta.  The company is a smallish telecom startup located in midtown
Atlanta, right near the Bell South buildings.  The environment is pretty
relaxed (no dress code).  I'm not sure what the exact salary range is,
but the pay is pretty competitive, the health plan is decent, and the
hours are flexible, but can be a little long (~45h/week).  The company's
primary product is a development platform for building applications that
users interface with over the phone.  These positions are for the
value-added tools that surround our core product.  No, our software does
not run on Linux, but that is one of our near term goals, so people with
Linux skills would be nice.  Solaris is a longer term goal. (Reason
number 2 for posting to you guys).

The entry-level position will be mostly Java-swing GUI development.
This position has been filled in the past with recent grads with degrees
in CS.  Really all we need for this position are people who know their
way around Java, and are willing to get to know it intimately.  

The mid-level position needs to be filled with someone with some
experience in "high-performance java" (j2ee, jboss, jmx, stuff like
that).  He/she will be mostly responsible for the server side processing
for the GUI-clients the junior guy will be working on.  There might be a
little knowledge of C++ required, but it's by no means a deal-breaker.

If this sounds like something you're interested in, please email me
(off-list) your name, a cover-letter like thing, and your resume.  I'll
also be glad to answer any questions you may have about the position(s)
or the company.  If it looks like you have something that we can use,
I'll gladly forward it along to my boss.  

Thanks a lot, I look forward to hearing from you guys.
