-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm writing this more to get feedback from the list than to find an employer directly. After watching the startup I worked for get litigated into nothingness, I'm looking for another gig. I really don't expect the kind of employers I'm interested in to be reading this list, so I'm hoping to get pointers from other readers. The sort of shop I'm interested in working in: -Considers security `mission critical' -Is not a single-platform or single-vendor shop -Is either small enough or structured such that a single highly-motivated individual can make a difference I'm willing to entertain almost any offer, but I think I'm most interested in very small companies...startups and suchlike. I'm not strongly inclined for or against any particular industry or sector. That being said, since I'm only interested in employers that take security very seriously, I won't be interested in some firms because of their security requirements. I won't bother including a resume, but have one available upon request. I'm only interested in senior-level positions, and have experience with such positions in companies of various sizes (from being a founding member of a startup, to being responsible for security at a billion-dollar biotech). I'm familiar with firewall administration, NIDS analysis, PKI administration, and just about any other flavour of network and information security related task an organisation might need. In addition, I'm highly skilled as a UNIX systems administrator, and am generally the go-to guy for UNIX-related questions in most shops where I work. I'm not interested in any management-only positions, but have no problems with project management, delegation of authority, and that sort of thing. I'm currently in the Silicon Valley/San Jose area, and I'm not interested in relocating at this point. In addition to myself, I could bring along an entire IT/IS staff...most of the tech guys from the same now-defunct startup I'm coming from. We work together well as a team, and have worked together for years. All of us have experience with everything from big corporate bureaucracies to tiny startups. If anyone knows of any interesting places that are hiring or new startups that are forming and looking for technical staff, I'd appreciate a pointer. Of course if such an employer is reading this list, I'd certainly be interested in hearing from them directly. The best way to contact me is via email to this address: spbat_private . Thanks.
