    • Strong scripting skills in shell, and also Python, Ruby, Perl or PHP

    • Excellent analytical abilities along with a strong sense of ownership and urgency, plus the drive and ability to rise to new challenges and master new skills
    • Awareness and knowledge about security issues
    • Good communication skills
    • The basic physical fitness for putting together and breaking down the hardware components of the system

    If you have experience with any of the following it is likely to be useful:

    • OpenGL application development
    • Image processing
