You never did answer my question about the qualifications expected of a network infrastructure engineer in the games business. I look in the job listings and its everything from qualifications I can fill now to peeps with CCNPs, UNIX experts (these two are my current track), Script ninjas, Random Microsoft Certs, mac certifications (apple + games = lolz), and alotta shit called Ruby that I have never heard of.
What does YOUR company expect of Network Infrastucture Team Members?
