My name is Geoff Cook. I am one of the founders of myYearbook.com, a
venture-backed (USVP) startup based in New Hope, PA. We have 1.7 million
members and a couple hundred million monthly pageviews. We have used
Postgres since day one. This is my second startup, the previous one I ran
for 7 years before selling to The Thomson Corporation, which was a
successful exit for everyone involved.

We have an opening for a Senior Postgres DBA and one for Data Architect. We
can offer up to $200,000 per year + substantial option package for the right
candidate.

myYearbook.com is undoubtedly one of the more hit postgres databases in the
world given the nature of our users (teens) and the fact that we succeed to
the extent we can match them up in novel ways.

We'd prefer someone in house, but may be able to work out a two-day in the
office a week type of relationship as well. The job would entail helping us
scale from 1.7 million to about 10 million users within 12 months. The
candidate would work with programmers to help make queries efficient and
look for and fix poorly performing queries and help move the DB to a master
- slave.. We are currently running on a quad dual-core Opteron with 32
drives and will soon be moving to a Xiotech SAN to hold the DB.

I wanted to reach out to this list given that Postgres is integral to the
success of our business and in the hope we could find someone in the
Philadelphia/NJ area or who is willing to relocate.

Please feel free to pass this opportunity on to anyone who may be
interested. To apply, please follow the links at the top of this email to
CareerBuilder.

Sincerely,
Geoff Cook
