Looking for a Qubes enthusiast in the Baar / Zug area of Switzerland

[mba]

Dear Qubes Community,

I am reaching out this way on the advise of Andrew David Wong (Axon), as I am in need of finding a part time "jack of all trades" IT person, who has knowledge of Qubes to an extent where he/she is able to implement this in a small office environment with a handful of users. There will also be other tasks, such as alarm system / video monitoring, networking, server etc. etc.

We envision this can be 50 - 100% workload (up to you) for a few weeks, after which we expect maybe 25% workload after that. All very flexible, BUT it is necessary that you are able to come and work from our office in Sihlbrug/Baar in Switzerland (just off the highway ... busstop 200 meters away).

Due to the nature of work, and given that we cannot offer a full time position, we would expect a young person who is studying or is an apprentice, who would like to have some additional challenges and earn some extra money. However, it could also be someone older who's in between jobs.

Important is knowledge/experience with Qubes, general IT/network and the ability to handle and solve challenges as well as being flexible, self-starter and work independently.

If you are interested, please send me your CV, which also must contain a recent photo, email and telephone number.

If you know of someone who could be interested, please let them know (or let me know).

I will be looking forward to hearing from you on the following e-mail address:

m...@corpconsult.info

Best regards

It will be necessary to do all of the work from our office in Baar, Zug, Switzerland. We see this as an ideal opportunity for a knowledgeble and motivated individual, who maybe now is an apprentice / student / unemployed, who have spare time and the wish to earn some extra money. Working times will be very flexible and with a high degree of independence in terms of carrying out the tasks.

I am bumping the thread as I greatly appreciate when companies search
for applicants like this (instead of with the usual DICE posting with
absurd HR specified qualifications that filter out all the honest
applicants.)

Also please let me know if you need advice on libre hardware purchasing
- the various pre-PSP AMD libre firmware available boards are becoming
harder to obtain so I advise obtaining some sooner rather than later -
moreso as the G34/C32 Opteron CPU's are not vulnerable to the
meltdown/spectre trouble (they are only exploitable with spectre part 1
if an obscure sysctl is enabled, however most distros have it disabled
by default as no one uses it)

hmm what is "DICE posting"? The job sure sounds like fun though.

Hi Qubes Community,

I have not received even one notice of interest. Can it really be that here in "Crypto Valley", there are no security and privacy concerned enthusiasts who has some spare time and need some cash for spare expenses whilst doing some interesting and independent work ..?

I obviously don't want to force anyone's hand, but any input towards someone who could fill this role will be highly appreciated.

Best regards Mogens

Maybe it is because public.gmane.org can't receive mails? I had some
time ago this error message:

"Host or domain name not found. Name service error for
name=public.gmane.org type=AAAA: Host found but no data record of
requested type"

Looks like he has a gmail address? Too bad it's too far away for me, looks
like a fun exercise.
