Unclear if this is a change in policy. We've never had anyone tied to an office in the US in OpenLogic. There are some other things that don't make a lot of sense in the listing. I'm following up to make sure those are as the are supposed to be. I'll post in the comments or edit as necessary.

Perforce is seeking an OSS Services Engineer to join the OpenLogic team. Under remote supervision, this engineer will use their knowledge and skills from previous experience and from on-the-job training to contribute to projects that deliver mission critical open-source software solutions to our customers in complex distributed environments.


Interact with end users on technical problems
Deliver professional services and training engagements
Drive resolution to problems, which include:
Open-source software issues
Questions around open-source software usage
Questions around use and best practices
Review customer architecture and design implementations
Research, understand, and advocate open-source software
Interact with various open source communities
Assist the broader OpenLogic team with thorny Tier 4 level open-source problems

Requirements:
10+ years of software development and design, enterprise architecture, or systems administration or level 3-4 technical support experience
At least 2 years in a senior position ( senior/lead developer, engineer, or DBA)
Minimum 3 years implementation and troubleshooting experience in #Linux, #Java, #Kubernetes, and/or #Hadoop
5+ years of hands-on experience working with a combination of SQL and NoSQL database technologies (e.g. Oracle, #MySQL/ #MariaDB, #Postgres, #MongoDB, #Cassandra, Neo4j/ #JanusGraph)
Experience working with a geographically dispersed virtual team
Strong Linux background
Strong SQL and NoSQL background
Some programming experience
Understanding of networks and networking protocols
Experience with virtualization and containerization at scale
Experience working in production environments, especially enterprise/carrier environments
Understanding of DevOps and automation concepts
Strong troubleshooting and problem solving abilities
Fast and creative thinker, quick on their feet to respond quickly to complex and difficult problems
Proven track record of acquiring strong proficiency in new technologies quickly
Effective communication skills and strong customer service orientation
Experience speaking at conferences/comfortable speaking in front of large crowds
Nice-to-have:
Preference given to candidates with implementation and troubleshooting experience on other broadly adopted open-source technologies and CNCF technologies (e.g. #Kafka, #Spark, #Nifi, #Flink, Elasticsearch, #Solr, Vault, Keycloak, #ActiveMQ/RabbitMQ/Artemis, #Redis, Tomcat/Wildfly, CentOS/Rocky/SLES, Docker/Podman, etc.)
Preference given to candidates with experience in DevOps automation tools like #Jenkins, Ansible, #Terraform, Nexus/Artifactory, #GitLab/ #GitHub
Database administration experience very desirable

Doug Whitfield shared this.

alright, so the Totalview piece on the actual listing was removed. I had already removed it assuming that was incorrect
