Job opening @ Facebook - system software engineer

Post by tinman143 »

Howdy folks,

Sorry that my first post is a job opening but hopefully it gets in front of interested eyeballs [-X .
Facebook's Server Development Team is looking for an Engineer to own board bring up and low level software development (bios, driver and some kernel) for our customized compute hardware. If anyone is interested in learning more about what we are doing in the datacenter space, let's connect.

The job description? go here - https://www.facebook.com/careers/depart ... 20software
What the heck has facebook done in the hardware space? Go to our open source page: www.opencompute.org

Who the heck am I? go to my linkedin page: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/tin-nguyen/0/9b9/332/

Cheers :mrgreen:

Interesting.

Is the job offer international, or would you only accept someone who is already in California?

It's probably indirectly legit... but it looks like a simple head-hunting bit. Take heed that even if it is legit, they're pointing you to a generic "jobs" page rather than the actual job position.
