Seattle. San Francisco. Mountain View. New York. Chicago. Full-time. careers at matasano.com. Matasano. iSEC Partners. Matasisec Partners? Job title: Bearer of Bad Tidings. Downside first: not getting to build something that people want. In fact, having to build things that people explicitly don't want . Now the upside: Runtimes. Linkers. Crypto. Kernel code. Whole operating systems. WinAPI, POSIX, Mach. Bluetooth. M…

matasano - always hiring, never replying to emails. I passed the crypto challenge and took the suggestion to apply - no answer. So I asked tptacek why they didn't reply - he said that was definitely a mistake, and I should send my application again. Of course again I got no answer. The crypto challenge was enjoyable though, so thanks for that I suppose.

Are you hitting my spam filter or something? We have a group of 4 people that work together to handle the mail we get at careers@. If you send something and get no response, you can escalate, like you're doing here.

(I can't answer the question I just asked myself, because I have no idea who you are. Sorry!)

I don't know what else to tell you. We don't ignore mail to careers@. For instance: the H1B cap is now closed for the year, but we're still replying to people who would need a visa to work in the US.

DFW Dallas Plano Frisco TX

Alkami Technology

https://www.alkamitech.com/job-openings

Looking for a few devops to help support our production environments, looking for a few developers to ... develop. If you wanna look me up on the twitters I can be found @jcolebrand and can give more details after you look around our site. I can buy you a beer at the Gingerman or something and we can discuss what's up.

Stacks: MSSQL, ASP.NET MVC+Razor, iOS (mostly wrapped), Android. All the good stuff. VS2012/VS2013, etc.

Bonus: Daily catered in lunch, MacBook Pros for devs (or an Origin laptop which is a tad beefier if you just can't handle OSX), Herman Miller Aerons, etc.

What the hell do we do? We write online banking software for credit unions. Think: really fancy reporting app, as we don't manage the pennies, we just show transactions and do rollup reporting.

Seriously tho, if you're devops, and in the Plano/Frisco or commuting area, we're in need!! :D
