SEEKING WORK  -  Silicon Valley or Remote
Prgmr.com is a small company that primarily rents virtual private servers[1]  We owe our customers upgrades, thus... we really need quite a lot of ram.   Around five terabytes of reg. ecc ddr3, to be exact.    And some servers and hard drives, too, of course.
I think the quickest way to obtain the aformentioned capital goods is to rent myself out as a sysadmin.
I'm valuing myself at no less than $100/hr, but I'm okay with flat-rate jobs, too.  Hell, for a monthly retainer, I'll put your site on my pager.  For a larger monthly retainer, I'll make a live copy of your site and host it on my hardware.
Me?  I have more than a decade of systems administration experience.   I wrote a book about xen[2]  Most of my experience is with Linux, but I also have many years of FreeBSD.   (now, a lot of that was FreeBSD 4, 5, and 6, but hey, I was using VIMAGE/Jails back in the freebsd 4 days;  a lot of this stuff is still relevant.)
I'm an especially good choice if you want to own  your own hardware;  I've got lots of experience dealing with a lot of physical servers.   I have seen... about every problem with pxe that can occur.   My networking skills are also pretty okay;  I can handle most reasonable BGP configurations.
Prgmr.com has 3 full-time employees, counting myself, and a handful of contractors.   Most of them are remote.   If you need their skillsets, we can talk about that, too, but I'm primarily looking to rent myself out.
In a perfect world, work would slowly ramp-up over a month or so, and I'd have a good 30 hours a week starting next month, for the next half year or so,  But, I'm flexible.  I just need my ram.
