I have been using this board for some time along with my coworkers to try to get more value out of our Foglight infrastructure (moving to 5.5 now). We all have other work to do outside of Foglight stuff, and we've hit the ceiling on the amount of work we are able to handle ourselves. I finally got the approval to hire a full-time Foglight specialist for my tools and monitoring team in Columbus, Ohio. We have posted a job but are having trouble finding qualified candidates with Foglight expertise.

If anyone is interested or knows of a qualified candidate, can you please contact my internal recruiter working on this search:
