Heya,
I could give a hand.

[...] ideally, candidates will:
- have been a member of a Wikimedia project for a long time, with some level of additional access (e.g. checkuser, OTRS, ...)
I'm an admin on en.wp, a clerk of the en.wp Arbitration Commitee, a member of the BAG, and I am an OTRS agent. I also obviously have way too much free time on my hands. :-)
- have an advanced knowledge of Unix (at least several years experience)
- have experience with Linux or Solaris system administration in a production environment (another Unix would be okay if you're willing to learn something new)
- have experience with MySQL database administration
I've been a sysadmin for a bit over 20 years, most of past 10 with Linux.
- be available on the toolserver IRC channel to help users (this isn't a requirement, but it would be helpful)
I spend way too much time on IRC already, might as well be productive. :-)
- experience with these products/technologies would be an advantage: Apache; JIRA; PostgreSQL; Sun Web Server; Sun Directory Server / LDAP; GlassFish; Kerberos; StorageTek SAM-QFS; Veritas.
I grok Apache, Jira, Pg, and Krb5. I'm familiar with Veritas. The rest I mostly know /of/.
as this is a volunteer position, the amount of time you put into it is entirely up to you; but at a minimum, you should be willing to spend at least a couple of hours each week on the toolserver.
I've already got a number of other tasks I do around the wmf, but I can certainly do a couple of hours of direct support work as well as idle in the ts channel to give a hand whenever I'm on IRC.
