I am a very good systems administrator UNIX or AS/400 with a strong networking back ground TCP/IP and services (NFS, DHCP, SMTP…). I can write code in C, C++, Perl, Java and shell script. I have worked in a few industries and need to find a permanent position in the Bay Area, my wife has already transferred here and is working and has set up our home here. I need to follow her, but am looking for a career position not just a job. If you have an opening for a Systems/Network Administrator and want to pay an honest days wage for maybe a little more than a honest days effort please send me an email. I live in Daly City near the Colma BART station and Highway 280. My resume follows.
Thank you for your consideration.
Best regards,
Richard Williams
