WebNX.com, an internet infrastructure and Dedicated Server provider in Downtown Los Angeles, is currently seeking individuals to fill a few full time technical positions for the Graveyard shift.

An innate curiosity regarding technology is required as positions will involve working on the latest and most advanced server hardware available.
