[ale] [JOBS] Sr. Systems Administrator positions

[Aaron Ruscetta]

This recruiter courteously contacted me this morning to ask
the proper way to share some job opportunities with ALE.
Since we don't have our employment list up yet, I offered to
review it and post here if I thought it was appropriate.

The job descriptions look relevant and legitimate to me,
so his email is below.

NOTE: This is a re-send as the full job description .pdf
attachment was over our 40k message limit.  I've quickly
cut, pasted, and re-attached that as Plain Text, but the
formatting may be a bit ragged now.


=============================

We are looking for 2-3 people immediately with more possibly to
follow. Following is the short job description, the long version is
attached.

Thank you,
Joe
