In this role you'll be providing consulting services to Command Prompt

working directly on improving PostgreSQL database software. Command 
Prompt is a long-term platinum sponsor of the PostgreSQL project. Our 
geographically distributed team consists of engineers, system 
administrators and marketing persons working together on common tasks 
and communicating via email, jabber and, occasionally, Skype. We use 
tickets/bug tracking to leave no tasks unfinished, keep our code in git 
and strive to document everything. Being a small team, we wear many hats 
and learn new technologies on the go.

If you think you'll be a good match for this position, please, email 
your resume and cover letter to Angela Roberson ([email protected]) 
with the words 'database administrator' in the subject line. Please, 
include your cover letter text in the body of your email and not as a 
separate attachment.
