At Coverity (http://coverity.com) we are looking for a security researcher with interest in static analysis. The candidate must be a strong in websec, doesn't be afraid to write code (checker prototypes, etc.), and the best would be to have some prior knowledge in static analysis (which doesn't need to be you wrote your own static analysis tool for brainf*ck or something). We have a description here on linkedin (http://linkd.in/VxL5bx) and you can apply there or just contact me directly (@rgaucher || rgaucher /at/ coverity.com). To have an idea of what we're doing, some of it is on our blog (https://communities.coverity.com/blogs/security).

For anyone reading who's interested, I think this might be the best example of how seriously we take self-improvement at Buffer:

Each day we have a daily standup video call (Google Hangout) with the whole team. Each person has 3 minutes to talk. Like most standups, we talk about what we've done and what we're doing next. The thing that we do which I don't know that any other startups do, is that as part of that 3 minutes we also share a daily improvement. Something we're working on to improve ourselves. It can be related to Buffer, but usually it isn't. Some examples of improvements people have worked on: start blogging every 2 weeks, speak at first event, speak to a new person every day, learn japanese, wake up an hour earlier. We all encourage each other with our improvements, and this helps us push forward much faster than otherwise. It's a really positive environment and there is built in accountability.
