RESUME: Senior DBA/Developer (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, etc)

I'm working with an AMAZING Senior DBA and Developer skilled in MySQL,
PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQL, you name it!! He's a literal rock star, but he's
not looking for an INSANE salary. Asking 125k (he's easily worth 150k) and
will relocate practically anywhere in the US.  He has a low offer from a CA
client and an interview coming up with a NY client so he's still available.


If you'd like to see his resume, please contact me at the email address
below.

Thank you,
Beau J. Gould

What we'd like to see is you not posting any messages like this in the
future.  Here is the guideline for what messages are appropriate for
pgsql-jobs:  "Posting of PostgreSQL related jobs".  The PostgreSQL
community hosting this list has no interest in helping with the bidding
war you're trying to arrange for your client.  If every person looking
for work were posting here, the list would be flooded with that instead
of what it's intended for.

When your staffing firm has openings for people with PostgreSQL skills
you're trying to fill, we'd be happy to see those from you on this
list.  But that's a privilege, and if you keep up sending things about
clients you're trying to place instead it's possible for that to go
away.  Please be more careful about that in the future.
