Any IT or CS people looking for work?

Programmers? Oracle, SQL or JBoss Middleware Admins? Scripting? Java? SAS, SQL, C#, SDLC? Senior Systems Engineer (Windows/.NET)? .NET developer? Configuration Management Experts? Systems Programmer? IT Performance Engineer? Information Systems Analyst? Microsoft Systems Engineer?

Lots of IT jobs, major company--good pay. Some six figure. Primarily in the DC area.

Hey Shmokes

Actually, I am.

I'm in the process of wrapping up a contract (PM estimates about 1.5 months left, but it could be less). I finished up everything they were needing done about 6 months early. and they've run out of stuff they need done  :(

I'm not in the DC area, but I've worked remotely for most of the last 12 years, and I'm not averse to traveling on site occasionally.

My background's in commercial software (the kind that's typically bundled up in an install, with help files, etc, burned to CD or put up for download and installed locally). Mostly .net these days, but I've done a good bit of VB6 to .net conversions, Office Addons, GIS, Point of Sale, Contact management, Medical billing, etc.

PM me if that sounds like any kind of match.

Configuration Management Experts?




That has been either the primary or partial focus of my job for 19 years now.


Not interested in the DC area, though.




(wtf... 19 years?!)

Do you have an office in NYC? 
My company loves sending development work to India, so I'm hoping I get a package.  But more likely I'll be converted to a business analyst <yawn>

Why doesn't anybody ever post about business management positions?

No need.  There are 100 candidates for every position.  MBAs are so common now it's not even funny.

That's why I keep my hands dirty with the code, even when I'm acting Chief Architect, or dev lead or whatever. More fun coding that managing anyway.

MBA != being a manager.

Around here it is among the requirements to be hired as a manager.  Not necessarily to be promoted but to get a new job?  Yep.
