Last fall I joined a startup called SiCortex, where we're building a new
Linux cluster computer. We're ramping up the software team, so if you
know anyone who is really good and looking for something new, let me
know.

Here's the short blurb and some job descriptions; feel free to get in
touch with me for more details. You can pass this along (minus headers,
of course).
