[Job offer] Lingnu Open Source Consulting is looking for a full time Linux programmer

Lingnu Open Source Consulting is a consulting (duh!) company based in 
Kfar Sava. Most of our activities are doing projects for clients. 
Working for us means being exposed to new challenges every few months, 
as the tasks change. Not all of them are equally interesting, but we do 
our best to make all of them open opportunities for personal growth. 
Most of the projects are relatively short, which means that there's 
always the next one...

Over the past year, we were involved in creating a Linux distribution 
for a wireless modem, adapting a build environment for unmanned 
airplanes, and adding Hebrew support to the HTC Magic - an Android 
phone. At least at the moment, the future does not seem any less diverse 
than our past.

In addition to that, we pride ourselves in providing an almost nonsense 
free work environment. Our employees are there to work, not fill in 
forms, attend meetings, give micro-reports to the boss (me) or any of 
the other stuff that makes technical work less fun. We can not keep this 
out altogether, but we certainly do our best to keep it to a minimum. 
This list has at least one former employee, and a few people I've worked 
with, and I'm hoping they can attest to this :-)

We are looking for a full time employee. Consultants and contractors 
need not apply at this point in time.

We are looking for the following skills:

    * Programming experience with Linux at the Posix API level (fork,
      execve, dup, select etc.)
    * Linux kernel programming experience.
    * Working with the standard toolchains - gcc & make are a must.
      automake and autoconf a definite advantage.
    * At least one of QT, GTK or wxWidgets.

Experience in any of the following will be an advantage:

    * C++ and Object Oriented programming
    * Android development (or, failing that, Java)
    * Active participation in an open source project, preferably either
      one you didn't start or one that has over 20 users and/or over one
      contributer, is a definite advantage

The job is customer facing. We are looking for someone with good human 
relations skills. The projects will, often, mean being away from the 
office with no direct management involvement. We are looking for 
autonomous person with the ability to spot what needs to be done and 
come up with suggestions for what to work on, and with the self 
discipline to carry it through.

Resumes should be sent to jobs2009 at lingnu.com.

Thanks,
Shachar
