I'm posting this not as a hiring manager or an HR rep - I'm a member of the Pro Services team working for Puppet. Sometimes people get confused about what Pro Services is or isn't, so I figured I'd make myself available to answer as many of your questions about the job as I can, and also provide some basic information for everyone.

So, go read the job posting, then come back.

...

Really? You RTFA'd? OK, the basic outline:

* Pro Svcs is basically sysadmins helping sysadmins. When you need to get help with a Puppet install beyond typical "support," we're the people who come and help. We build custom modules, types and providers, in every kind of IT environment you can imagine, all around the world. And generally, if you want to go to any of those other parts of the world, you can. Or you can stay pretty much on your coast. Your call.

* We're also evangelists, but in the cool way. Your job isn't to just say positive things about Puppet. Your job is to go to user group meetings, present at conferences - and Puppet presents at the best IT conferences in the world - and generally try to make things better for the community. As my boss told me when I first joined up - "your job is to spread the love."

* We're the antennae for the company out in the community. Engineering and the product team look to us to tell them what's really happening in the community, how Puppet is really being used, and then feed that information back. You get to be a part of that decision making process. You WILL be part of a meeting where critical product decisions get made - and by "meeting" I mean, "we were hanging out on the couches after hours drinking beer when..."

* We're not sales engineers. That doesn't mean we don't get involved in advising people that aren't yet Puppet customers at times, but there are people specifically assigned to that role. For the most part, you're helping people learn and use technology.

* Oh and did I mention that Puppet is an amazing place to work? I've blogged about it:

It's been months since that was posted and I wouldn't change a word. I can't emphasize how great this place is.

So...post questions. But also apply...help us change what being a sysadmin means forever.
