Job Opening

[Jose Lerebours]

Fascinating how we read the same thing and come to different conclusions.

They do seem to need a one-man IT Dept type of thing which is, these 
days, almost non-existent.

"Basic Network Management" is a bit of a downplay but it could be that 
they do outsource infrastructure stuff
but like to do simpler things internally rather than open tickets and wait.

LINUX probably because they run filePro in it.

C# .NET because of their WWW presence and possible B2B solutions and 
mobile apps.

PC hardware and other peripherals because they are constantly in need of 
cleaning/routine maintenance ...

VANs / EDI is normal these days since most industries have gotten some 
sort of "hub" service provider as they
aim to set a standard across the industry or a one size fits all; much 
like my own API Server to fetch common
carriers rates across US, MX and CA.

Windows, well, we all know why they need someone to keep PCs and 
workstations running!  ;-)

Any one member of this list can handle these needs with both hands tied 
behind our backs, hence the reason
why it was posted here.

Finally, I would suggest they move to Azure and 365 Cloud, and get rid 
of any servers they have.  Network can be
managed remotely these days and skilled candidates for that combo are a 
dime a dozen.  A Full Stack developer can
handle C# .NET and a 2nd developer can handle filePro - Counted, a team 
of three each with special skills sets and
they are on smooth ride as far as their infrastructure is concerned.

To wrap it up: Full Sack Developer $80K, Azure & 365 Cloud Admin $70K 
and filePro Developer $150K to $210K (the
pool to choose from is very very very small). A one-man that can do all 
of it $280K (but this is a one basket scenario).

What say you, sounds about right?

I know my worth, I hold my ground ... I bring a lot to the table and that has got to mean something!
