Position Posting - Facility Engineer (Administrator) - CLOSED

From Nate Oines:

Members,

With upcoming work over the next few months that will require me to travel weekly, combined with a re-location in the fall as I start flight school full-time, I will no longer have the time to fulfill the responsibilities of my position as Facility Engineer (FE). With that said, in the coming weeks I will be stepping down and resigning. However, I will be actively helping to find and train a new FE for the Boston Virtual ARTCC and, in that time, still plan to be active within the community to help out and contribute. If you are interested in the position, please see the position posting below for more information.

Thank you and MOCHA HAGoTDI!

Nathan Oines
