Subject: Job Opening in Maryland for Security Researcher

I hope this isn't too off topic, and I apologize to almost all of you for the interruption.  I hope, however, that this might be of interest to at least one reader.

I have a job opening for a computer scientist with an interest in computer security.  The ideal applicant would be an intelligent person with a solid computing background who reads lists like Full Disclosure with interest and attention and enjoys the topics discussed here.

The job is located in the United States, near Columbia, Maryland (between Baltimore and Washington, DC), and no relocation assistance is available.  U.S. citizenship is required, and applicants selected will be subject to a background investigation and must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information.  In plain English, you don't need to have a security clearance already, but you need to be someone whom we can sponsor for one.  A copy of the job announcement is attached. 

If interested, you can either send me a copy of your resume directly (ASCII text only please!), or you can go to http://www.gd-ais.com, search for Req. Number 3575BR, and apply online.  (I would prefer to receive resumes directly so I can make sure that our wonderful automated resume reviewing software doesn't screen out good candidates in favor of Yet Another MCSE).

Thank you!
