Hello,

I have a long term position that is direct hire for a US Citizen or
Greencard holder. The current environment consist of Oracle, mySQL, and one
SQL Server database that are all in the process of being converted entirely
to PostgreSQL Database environment. The official job description is below
but what the client wants is someone who is eager to work and be a part of
an environment that is taking on PostgreSQL 100% and who has a background
with Linux/Unix for some minor administration. If this is you please email
your resume to pdechent(at)warriorsllc(dot)com(dot) I am working very closely with the
hiring managers at ARIN and can arrange an interview ASAP.

No clearance is required but US citizenship or a Greencard holder is a
