As I'd mentioned at the last meeting:

I know a company looking for a SAGE level II or III sysadmin   The job will be to be part of the team supporting a large, complex, high-availability site consisting of hundreds of machines, multiple operating systems and dozens of services. Day-to-day duties will include all aspects of web, database, and application server life-cycles; from installing new hardware, software and operating systems, support of existing servers and platforms, scripting, bug and security patching, performance monitoring and tuning, break/fix troubleshooting, to retirement or upgrade of older hardware and platforms. Frequent interaction with end users is the norm, as is participation in long-term projects with vendors and other internal groups.

Minimum Requirements: 
• 2-5 year of production-level Unix System Administration experience 
• Experience installing, administering and troubleshooting Solaris 8-10, and Linux
• Experience with scripting and debugging in languages such as sh, bash, perl, php, ruby, and python

Some number of the following are also useful.
• A firm grasp of basic networking concepts including routing, subnets and firewalls 
• Comfort with SQL in some sort of relational database (Oracle, MySQL preferred) 
• Working knowledge of storage architectures and technologies (DAS, NAS, Fiber Channel, volume management, NetApp Filers)
• Understanding of basic backup system concepts 
• Experience with a configuration management system (like CFEngine)
• Experience with server virtualization 
• Experience with apache, jboss, postfix, DNS, NFS, monitoring tools, and ticket tracking systems 
• Experience working in a 24/7 highly available environment 
• Experience with PCI compliance or similar 
• Experience with Kickstart and/or Jumpstart
• Additional relevant training courses (from colleges, universities, conferences or corporate) are a plus 

If this might be you, drop me mail with your resume.
