Seeking CTO

This is a quite rough description - but we are primarily networking to find candidates so hopefully this will get the ball rolling.

Seeking: Bad-Arse who thinks this kind of vortex is a fun place to be

Linkspank CTO.

Linkspank is starting to scale and we're looking to fill a supremely important position - CTO.

This individual lives and breathes Apache and MySQL, and has full command of PHP and Javascript. This is primarily an admin type position, but you should be able to code PHP and Javascript and be willing to do that as a big part of the job!

Key Responsibilities:

+ Continuity - providing 24 x 7 continuity to the Linkspank site.

+ Security - of apache.

+ Database - MySQL quality and scale, future db ring, integration of code with server and db setup.

+ Server Scale and quality - involving integration of apache and mysql.

+ Development of code and site appearance.

This is a job for DOERS. You must be non-jaded and eager to actually do stuff like program, roll up your sleeves, do stuff because for a while there will be no one to delegate to!

This position is located in Cambridge, MA. The position is not starting immediately. In fact, start date is uncertain, probably sometime early 2008.
