Web/DB Dev Internship, NASA/ARC, Mtn View, CA

[Richard Levasseur]

Hi All,

I wouldn't normally post this here, since this isn't *quite* the
appropriate place, but I think the quality of responses will be better.

There is an internship for a Web and Database Technician available at
NASA/Ames Research Center for the Environmental Services Branch. The
position is for developing and maintaining internal tools and sites
supporting the Environmental group.

Requirements: You *must* be able to answer yes to all of these.
1. US Citizen (No greencards)
2. Enrolled college student (If you are taking fall classes, that
counts as enrolled)
3. Willing to work part time during the school year.
4. Able to work in Mountain View, California (No Telecommuting).

This is a rather informal posting, so this is rather brief and from the
hip:

Job Description:
Develop and maintain PHP/MySQL web applications.
Admin (Gentoo) Linux Servers.
Maintain and update HTML websites.
Plus the standard web dev tasks.

Technical Requirements:
SQL and Database Design skills.
Object Oriented Programming skills.
PHP or equivilent language. (Java, Perl, Python, etc)

Bonuses for:
Software Design Patterns
XML, Javascript, AJAX, shell scripting
Server installation, maintainance, and upgrades.

This is an intern position, so you aren't *expected* to be some sort of
guru (of course, it certainly doesn't hurt, either). You MUST be able
to meet the requirements at the top, though, those are center and
employment requirements

If you're interested, please send a resume to me at
rl********@mail.arc.nasa.gov

PS: Coincidentally, I'm looking for a new job. If any of you (cough,
Jerry, Tony, Chung, cough) know of hiring companies, it'd be much
appreciated if you told me about them or vice versa (resume:

I don't know if you're looking that far up field. Here in the DC area
the job market is pretty tight. And if you happen to have a security
clearance, you could probably get a job in no time.

We're looking to hire a programmer incidently. The salary is sort of a
joke though.

Not a joke. Here in the DC area, it's an insult. My wife's AA makes
more than that!

Yeah, I'm not terribly optimistic about the outcome. Salaries are set
system-wide, so there's nothing we can do. If you calculate in pension,
health benefits, and tuition remission, it's actually not that bad. The
problem is that IT people aren't the lifetime service type.

True, but my wife's AA has all those benefits, also, and they could be
better. And a bachelor's degree isn't required for her position.

You might find an entry level person right out of college for that rate.
But not one with experience.

I'd be glad to apply. But I don't have the degree and I was making
almost $50K when I left IBM in 1990.
