We heard that [Voxeo](http://voxeo.com/), a communications company that helps customers integrate, deploy and manage custom contact center applications, is seeking a barista for their Orlando office. As a business communications company also amped up on open standards and caffeine, we believe it is important to help fulfill this role. We know just the person for the job.

#### Name

John Riordan, CTO of [OnSIP](https://www.onsip.com)

#### Experience

- CTO of VoIP Company (5 years)
- CTO of ISP (5 years)
- No professional barista experience, but makes a good cappuccino with above-amateur foam art and has experience with the Voxeo coffee equipment (see images below from Voxeo's Partner Summit 2011 )

#### Contact

Attend the NYC Telephony Hacker's Meetup this Monday, January 28th. John Riordan and Engineer Will Mitchell will be presenting along with Tim Panton of Phono, Voxeo Labs.

#### Monday, January 28th, 7:00 pm NYC Telephony Hackers Description

Tim Panton - head of Phono's development team - will be Skyping in and joining us virtually from the UK. Phono is a simple jQuery plugin and JavaScript library out of Voxeo Labs that turns any web browser into a phone capable of making phone calls and sending instant messages. Phono can also be used to connect to SIP clients.

Also, Will Mitchell - a software engineer from OnSIP - will be joining us to discuss OnSIP's XMPP and REST APIs. Will is also the lead developer behind OnSIP's new Osprey.js API which provides a JS wrapper for Jitsi-based softphones in the browser.

Yes, this has been a round-about invitation, but stay tuned for more blogging on the event! Oh and, happy Friday!
