My company is looking for another engineer for an immediate opening. It's a great InfoSec position where you get to analyze a lot of different malicious codes and other attack artifacts. I really enjoy the work. Candidates without malcode analysis experience may be considered if they have strong networking and OS knowledge, are comfortable using tools to do behavioral analysis of software and in general have a familiarity with security concepts.

Feel free to contact me to discuss the position off list and/or send resume.
