[SVLUG-Jobs] Linux kernel expert needed for stealth mode early stage startup with solid funding in South San Jose

[Ravi Pindiproli]

Hello folks

 

I am an independent sourcer / recruiter in the valley.  In the past, I have
worked at companies like Google, Cisco and VmWare and may have contacted
several of you for opportunities there.  Now I am working for myself and
supporting some startups.

 

One of my client, a very early stage startup just got funding within 6
weeks.  They are located in South San Jose.  The founders have been through
three successful IPO's.  They have an excellent reputation for taking
companies to the next level.  Since, I cannot give you any information on
the company itself, I can give more details on the founders background to
interested candidates that match the needs.

 

If you are interested in discussing more here is what they are seeking in a
Linux Platform Engineer.  What they are seeking that is very important to
have is strong Linux kernels experience.  Secondary skills to have is BSP,
driver development.

 

This is an opportunity to become the 5th employee of a firm which has a very
high percentage of becoming acquired or going public.  The company already
has enough funding to last till Oct 2010.  They are already in serious talks
with high profiled VC's now for more - this can also be discussed in details
with the candidates rather than make a generic posting.

 

If you think that this may be a role that could be of interest to you,
please ping me back at your earliest convenience.  I am available for a
discussion immediately.

 

Thank you for your time.

 

Ps:  I am also supporting 4 other startups in the bay area (2 of the
companies whose CEOs are Mid - Senior Execs from Google).  Most of these
organizations are interested in Linux based open source Engineers with
expertise in either C / C++ and (one of them Java).  Feel free to ping me if
you consider yourself and expert in these technologies and looking for a
startup opportunity.

 

Cheers!
