Playing Matchmaker

I don't normally parrot job posts, especially here on the blog, but I know plenty of people are looking for work, and I know some security vendors who are looking for people, so here goes my attempt at hopefully helping both.  (Not an endorsement of them, I have no details, I'm just passing along the information).  If you are looking for a new position, you have probably already found these through the wonder of Google, but just in case...

Kaspersky has openings in Woburn, MA: http://usa.kaspersky.com/about-us/career.php

BigFix and Fortinet have openings, most around the SF Bay area, but other locations, too:

BigFix: http://tbe.taleo.net/NA7/ats/careers/jobSearch.jsp?org=BIGFIX&cws=1
Fortinet: http://www.fortinet.com/aboutus/careers.html

ICANN has several openings: http://icanncareers.silkroad.com/icannext/Employment_Listings.html

Symantec also has some positions open: http://www.symantec.com/about/careers/country/index.jsp

IBM's looking for consultants to work in their hosted av space. Involves malware disassembly. Fishkill NY (They have plenty of other listing on their careers site, but I know these are real, active openings).

I have no desire to turn this into a job board, but if you know of REAL openings for direct hires (not through agencies), let me know and maybe I'll add them to the list.

Jack,

How come half of their jobs pages lead us to links off their sites?

Good question. It seems that many companies outsource their careers pages rather than design and maintain their own. I have seen several companies use Taleo for hosting their careers site- but it does seem odd that tech companies would outsource tech...

Watch out for the Symantec opportunities! Their Incident Response team has had six managers in under a year. Normal sane people run screaming from the job (but then, how many CISSPs fit that description...?).

They don't even have an Security Information Management system. So unless you enjoy reading hundreds of email alerts on your blackberry at 4 AM that were autogenerated by poorly configured IDS nodes and cron-triggered bash scripts, RUN!

On the other hand, if you enjoy abject chaos, clinically paranoid superiors and process straight out of the mid 90s, it's the place to be! Benefits include free abuse, punishment and humiliation. Just keep repeating: "Thank you sir, may I have another!"
