[OT - JOB AD][REPOST] Python / XML / Distributed Systems Developer

[Frank Stolze]

This time without the HTML nonsense...


Sorry for the off-topic post. We are a well-funded, stealth mode startup in the
network service management field. We are building a novel, distributed system
and service that involves Internet protocol implementations (HTTP, SMTP, POP3,
DNS, ping, etc.), statistical analysis, some AI, database storage and
reporting, as well as issues such as routing, load balancing, fail-over,
firewalls, etc.

Almost all of the implementation is being done in Python. We also use XML,
XML-RPC, HTTP tunneling and a few new things. We are looking for two
enthusiastic Python & networking gurus to join a small team of hands-on
people to help us implement a great vision!

The "official" job description is below.


Regards,
Frank
