I can definitely recommend working with Zak. I've consulted for his group in the past and he's easy to work with and his group does some pretty cool work.

This is a unique type of role we're looking for. It's a 2nd Level Support Engineer in the Portland, OR metro area who has a background with Java application servers from a systems admin perspective, so JBoss, Weblogic, Websphere, Tomcat, and ideally experience with both Linux and Windows (gasp!) Systems Administration...although the client might only require Linux or Windows, and not both. This would be a killer position for a real technologist who would enjoy working in a *very* heterogeneous environment! If you're interested, I'm all ears at tony at itmotives.com.
