SEEKING WORK - Remote, or Edinburgh, Scotland.
I'm a contract linux sysadmin. I know about modern web development best practices, and I know about ancient perl horrors. I prefer the first thing to the second.
I really really want to work with startups that are going from the 'two hours of downtime every week while we resize the single Linode instance we run our entire app on' stage to the 'holy shit we have paying customers we'd better think about scaling and availability' stage. Even if you don't have a lot of money, a bit of a specialist's time can cost less than you think and give you a solid foundation to build from.
