#Fedihired

I'm still looking. I'm still at the #VA but I've lost: 2 data engineers, 1 system engineer, 1 cybersecurity engineer, my contracting manager (last friday, no notice) and our director just announced retirement.

I've been applying everywhere for relevant roles. Even in 2021, I had a reply response of around 20:1 . Now, ive put in probably 200. I've got nothing. (well, thats not true. weapons manufacture keeps pinging. no way no how)

Im looking for #cloud #systemsengineering #sitereliabilityengineering #cybersecurity #systemarchitect

DM and I'd be happy to send my resume or apply at a role you suggest.

Aside: stuff like this is why I think I'm in this situation. Basically, fake/AI resumes are drowning the market. cnbc.com/2025/04/08/fake-job-s

I saw this on HN this morning. And it seems terrible for everyone affected, well, except for the fake/AI users with batch apply scripts. Also explains LinkedIN jobs "submitted 1h ago, over 100 applied". news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4

CNBCFake job seekers are flooding U.S. companies that are hiring for remote positions, tech CEOs sayCompanies have long faced external attacks from hackers. Now, thanks to generative AI, another threat has emerged: Employees who aren't who they say they are.

Compendium of Nancy Leveson: STAMP, STPA, CAST and Systems Thinking

Although I don’t often mention or post about Leveson’s work, she’s probably been the most influential thinker on my approach after Barry Turner.

So here is a mini-compendium covering some of Leveson’s work.

Ah yes, 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 an article that solves the age-old mystery of how Bell Labs, with all its resources and brilliant minds, managed to figure things out! 🤔 The author's groundbreaking advice? Hire a systems engineer and magically transform into an #innovation powerhouse. 🌟 Who knew it was that simple? 😂

Webinario sobre Desafíos en Ingeniería de Sistemas en INCOSE LatAm

Como había anunciado en LinkedIn, el pasado 21 de enero di un webinario sobre los desafíos de ingeniería en general, y de ingeniería de sistemas en particular, en la Actualización de Sensibilidad de Banda Ancha (Wideband Sensitivity Upgrade) para ALMA que me ocupa como Ingeniero de Sistemas de Desarrollo de ALMA.

El webinario se transmitió a través de Zoom, y ahora por fin los compañeros de INCOSE LatAm han conseguido subirlo al canal INCOSE LatAm de Youtube, y en particular a la lista de reproducción de Webinarios INCOSE LatAm.

Aparte del enlace directo al Webinar 15 en YouTube, he descargado una versión de buena calidad en esta entrada más abajo, así como las transparencias (también disponibles en SpeakerDeck).

2025-01-21 INCOSE LatAm — Engineering Challenges of the ALMA Wideband Sensitivity UpgradeDescarga

Hi #Fediverse! It's time for #introduction.

I am Rusty, a proud European made in Czechoslovakia.
I'm interested in all the topics around #SystemsEngineering.

I've been in tech && IT for more than 0x14 years, from circuit boards to arguing about story points.
A brave survivor of Y2K, Zombie Scrum and other global apocalypses.

Talk to me in English, German, or MBSE. Bonus points for tech-related dark sarcasm and humor.

This talk by Gentry Lee, of JPL System Engineering and Cosmos and Rama II/Garden of Rama/Rama Revealed fame, uses the 10 personal characteristics of a system engineer to go through the foundations of the discipline... including how do we sleep at night with so many unknowns and things to do!
