Title: Newjoiner!
Post by: sxravan on January 22, 2024, 10:18:26 PM
Hello all,

I'm Shravan, Linux System Engineer from Mauritius with 4 years of experience. I came to Canada back in December 2023 to pursue a post grad in Information Technology Infrastructure at Conestoga College.

I've been active in the community back in my home country and would like to be a part of this community as well!

The latest presentation I did in Mauritius was at DevCon 2023 which was held at Caudan Arts Centre, Port Louis.

I'm including 2 LinkedIn links in here so you guys can take a look.

Btw, if you have a part-time remote opportunity for a Linux sysadmin guy, hit me up!

I'm currently working as a part-time Linux System Engineer from Mauritius (full remote), I would like to taste the Canadian experience as well.

Cheers,
Shravan

Welcome Shravan. Welcome to our PLUG.

I'm curious. Are you signing into some of the larger Ontario Linux groups on the web as well? We do have some connections to other groups that might help you in your career pursuits.

Welcome, sxravan! Are you hoping to return to Canada for a career? Not that I don't love Canada, but from what I've read about Mauritius online, you're better off working remotely there! :) It Looks like a well-off high-income country and certainly has nicer weather than what we get in most of Canada! Does it really look like this?
