We are looking for more people to expand our software development team. More positions are open and you can see details at Zyxware Careers. After having used Naukri successfully for our last round of hiring in June we have posted the job ad for PHP Developers - http://bit.ly/9EBeOL - again in Naukri. Like in the past FOSS contributions would give candidates an extreme advantage over other applicants.

Multiple positions are open at Zyxware. Unlike in the past we are looking primarily to hire experienced hands this time. As had been true in the past, demonstrable Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) contributions would give candidates an extreme advantage over other applicants. Please see Zyxware Careers to see more details and apply.

As we (Zyxware) are gearing to enter the next phase in the life of our company i.e. growing from a small business to a medium enterprise we are looking for people to take up key positions in our operations. One position which we are planning to fill as soon as possible is that of a Project Manager. We are looking for a mid level IT professional with good Project Management capabilities for this position

We (Zyxware) are looking for a Marketing Manager to bolster our sales and growth. We have been depending on passive marketing ever since we started but we have reached a stage where we need a person who can dedicatedly focus on marketing and growth through marketing. The person we are looking for should also understand that we are a company which was started with a vision and hence has a very strong commitment towards our ethics and principles. There are also other interesting positions open. Check out Zyxware Careers for more details.

We (Zyxware) started working on Drupal around two and a half years ago. I had selected drupal as the platform to work with after countless hours of review of other solutions. Ever since we started working with drupal, I used to pull up Drupal Association and toy with the idea of joining the association because I wanted to do more than contribute code to drupal. Finally I took the plunge and signed up Zyxware as a formal member of Drupal Association

We must really be famous. News about our fame and riches have even percolated to the underworld as well. What else can you infer from the recent burglary attempt at Zyxware One. Oh, by the way, our office locations are now known as Zyxware One and Zyxware Two. Numbering not scalable? - Yeah I know. It would be funny talking about Zyxware Sixteen Thousand Three Hundred and Eighty Four :-). Back to the little robbery story.

Update: I have got three places to move out to. So I am no longer looking for houses :-). Thanks for all those who saw the request and tried to help and all those who saw the request and ignored the request for help and those who saw the request and could not help. I got a house for rent near Kesavadasapuram opposite MG College for my computer sales and services outfit and a doublet house at Muttada for Software development and my residence.

For the last 3 days I have been taking formal Free Software training sessions. On Tue I presented a Free Software Training Seminar at Rajagiri College of Social Studies (Kochi) for the MCA students there. For the next two days I taught a Basic Computer Awareness (using Free Software) class at the Police Training College at Thiruvananthapuram. Having just come back from the Freedom Walk campaign, I seem to have started building a liking for formal training opportunities.

Yesterday I had a long conversation with my cousin Thomas who is running his own firm in Bangalore (Stylus Inc). We normally have these long cousin-cousin talks once in a while, where he would closely enquire about happenings with Zyxware and share his contextually relevant experiences in building up his firm. Yesterday we discussed about the vision behind and mission of Zyxware and he impressed upon me the need to get it out in the public.

Zyxware turned 2 on the 24th of June 2008. It has been a heck of an adventure full of excitement for the last two years and I am loving it. This year is slated to be far more exciting with a slew of projects and programs scheduled to be unveiled within the coming 5-6 months.
