[colug-jobs] Source Code Management Position

[Greg Sidelinger]

There is a large Insurance company located downtown Columbus that
looking for someone with Linux experience to help admin subversion and
Harvest/CA SCM.  It sounds like they want someone with a good
Linux/scripting knowledge base that can be brought up to speed on the
actual tools because most people don't have experience with everything
the team touches.  Granted knowing your way around apache is a good
skill to have for SVN.

Here is the job description.  If you are interested I can forward
resumes on to management. Direct candidates only, no recruiters
please.
