Does stumbling upon and reporting security or access control issues while applying for IT jobs help or hurt my cause?

Am I embarrassing them? I do not emit one iota of snark.

I guess I am out here alerting companies to web compromise, phishing portals they have hosted, and easily acquired access to internal "tech bible" & situational client interaction resources.

Looking for a human translator to convey your human words to a human audience? Maybe that's me!

I translate from Swedish, French, Norwegian and Danish into English (mainly UK but US possible depending on the text - I also work with a USian translator as a team where required). I'm a full Member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting for both Swedish and French.

I'm also an Intermediate Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading – in other words, I offer proofreading/editing/copyediting services too.

Oh, and copywriting!

I work on everything from press releases through sustainability reports to novels. Particularly fond of archaeology/history (got to get use from my MA somehow) and personal development, but really I'm interested in almost everything and translation allows me to be a nerd about all kinds of things.

The subjects I *don't* do are legal, financial and medical.

I feel like this needs a pic, so here are two of my three cats looking comfy (if a bit warm).

Alt...

A dark tortoiseshell and a tricolour cat are lying on top of each other, squished into a padded cat bed. The tricolour is looking straight into the camera. They look comfy but a bit cramped.

I’m looking for a new job as my company will be reorganising soon. I do software design*, user research, product management and have hired and managed teams of designers and developers.

Looking for something senior but I like the mixed nature of startup roles because I still like doing actual hands-on design. I’m in the UK, where I live means a remote role is best. Boosts welcome.

* currently ed-tech, previously e-learning, games publishing, mobile apps, and branding

Any computer-touchers looking for a job? The Cambridge Computer Lab is looking for a mostly Linux sysadmin. Great place to work, I still pop in sometimes, but don’t let that put you off!

EDIT: I believe this requires the ability to be physically in Cambridge (UK) at least some of the time. I am not sure if they can sponsor visas for this job, but they often can.

I'm an all-round, highly experienced, fuller stack software developer (C++/Node/JS) from multiples fields (web/edtech/embedded/games) and all levels (up to CTO)

Value-adds of understanding Linux, open source, project management, public speaking, and communication. (With multiple books and keynotes to my name!)

Does anyone have a remote (UK TZ) or Cambridge/London role?

Thanks

grumpy effective sysadmin available immediately

having my position finally axed liquidated, i'm currently looking for a new position.

i am looking for a senior position, preferably remote work, full employment. i can be the literally senior person in your very own team!

availability date negotiatable starting from 1st of july 2025 – i'm currently located in poland, and for various reasons am not planning to relocate.

current cv available on request (private message will do, with all caveats regarding its privacy, or you can e-mail me on miroslaw AT makabra dot org)

i'm a generalist linux wrangler, with a long (20+ years) and wide (if a bit eclectic) experience –

• system management, configuration management (ansible, chef & co.),

• glue tooling and scripting (bash, python, rudimentary ruby),

• design, setup and management of crucial infrastructure services (ldap, dns),

• general db skills (not at the dba level), devops-y stuff etc.,

• sysadmin-level networking stuff, and the ability to not stepping on toes of the netadmins too frequently,

• very tired familiarity with version control systems (from using to setting up and managing, including ancient and current ones, open source and commercial),

• also with long experience working in multi time-zone environment.

i know cloud stuff (mostly aws), spent some time recently working with the budget infra providers like hetzner or ovh, can do proxmox, have some docker and currently working on getting fluency in kubernetes – i'm already doing plenty of yaml programming.

in my recent job i've managed the most part of our ansible collection designed to set up base system image and then then getting specific services up and running, and have written tooling to help with bringing up and updating the systems using it, including a safe secret management on a small team scale.

i have fluent english and polish, passive german, some russian.

considering the current political and economical situation and that i'm looking for a long-term employment contract, i'd prefer not working for an united-states funded company, and preferably not having much to do with statistical slop generators of any kind (including, but not limited to LLMs).

it would be nice if the company had a minimally acceptable general business ethics profile.

Mastodon has no algorithm. Only hashtags guide your post to eyes.

This is just one.

There are more. Always use several.

Follow hashtags too, like people.

New York State is hiring for two roles in accessibility

This is a #FediHire post, but it's not about technology, so I don't know how helpful the fediverse will be.

I have a PHD in math and nine years of experience teaching university students. I want to leave higher education and become a high school math teacher, but I am not certified.

I'm in the U.S. and have no easy way to leave. I also can't go four years without an income or health insurance.

What states would be the easiest for me to get at least provisionally certified to teach in?

Also keep in mind that I'm trans, so I am only willing to move to a state where it's legal for me to interact with teenagers and get health care.
