Alvey : Hiring web developers and tech gurus

We're expanding our Weblogs, Inc. tech team. I'm looking for some talented tech people with web development, database and server management skills.

"Didn't you post about this a few weeks ago?" you ask.

Well, yes. Nice catch. Very flattering. Now we're looking for full-time team members. Things change.

The exact skill set is less important than these traits: bright, energetic, blog savvy, great communication skills (email, IM and in person), organization and problem solving. I'm not looking to fill a specific role like "MySQL developer". I want to find two or three people who know how to keep a giant blogging platform flying along and contribute to our always-changing stream of web projects.

But just so we don't get people expecting to work on something else we don't use, here are some real skills we need:

Apache, PHP and MySQL
ASP/VBScript, Microsoft SQL
experience with blogs, blogging, tagging services, CMSes, forums, Web 2.0, Web 3.0 ;-)
Windows Server, Linux OS, Mac OS
regular expressions, JavaScript, AJAX
FTP, remote control (terminal services, ssh) and file management
experience administering DNS and email servers (Windows Merak Mail corporate mail server, qmail on Linux)

Does that sound like you or someone you know? Let me know.
