Next Century Corporation – www.nextcentury.com - Columbia, MD Next Century Corporation was recently featured on “60 Minutes” and Forbes Magazine for its work on a team that created a search engineer used to combat the world-wide scourge of human trafficking: http://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2015/04/17/darpa-...

Reputed to be a “Google killer,” by Forbes, the tool “Memex” is already being used by law enforcement to arrest those carrying on the trafficking of human beings; and letting the oppressed go free.

Our mission is to create software that saves lives and protects our country. While our chief customer is the intelligence community, but we also work on some un-classified work like Memex and products like WISER: http://wiser.nlm.nih.gov/

Also Ozone Widget Framework: https://www.nextcentury.com/our-technology-solutions/data-pr...

o Neon Framework: (http://neonframework.org) o SIGHTT: (http://www.sightt.com)

The company was founded as a direct result of the terrorists attack on 9/11. We’re passionate about our mission to save lives.

By hiring very selectively, we have had a direct impact on the world totally out of proportion to our small size of 120 software engineers. Most of our positions require the TS/SCI and polygraph clearance. If you don't have, we can get. If you’re a US citizen and wished you had the feeling the work you’re doing is really important, you should write the recruiting team at Next Century: Katie.casey@nextcentury.com Joe.poplawski@nextcentury.com Romina.nally@nextcentury.com
