Southeast USA including: Texas (Austin and San Antonio), Virginia (Arlington and Dulles), Alabama (Huntsville),
Florida (beach east of Melbourne), South Carolina (Greenville),
Maryland (Annapolis Junction), and possibly others, all ONSITE.
Citizenship is a job requirement.
We do emulators, JIT, hypervisors, stuff like valgrind, debuggers,
manual disassembly, binary static analysis, parsers, and assembly.
We write our own low-level tools, frequently in C99 to run on Linux.
We also use IDA Pro, qemu, Simics, JTAG debuggers, gdb, Coverity,
KlocWork, LLVM, and so on. Easily transferable skills include those
related to compilers, kernel drivers, embedded RTOSes, vectorizing,
firmware, VxWorks BSP development, symbolic execution, boot loaders,
software verification, concolic testing, abstract interpretation,
satisfiability (SAT, SMT) solvers, and decompilers. We work with
more than a dozen architectures including PowerPC/ppc/POWER, MIPS,
ARMv8/Thumb2/AArch64, x86-64/x64/Intel, DSPs, and microcontrollers.
We hire from no-degree to PhD. Common degrees include Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Mathematics.
We don't normally work overtime, and we get paid more if we do. We're never expected to take work home or be on call. Because of the citizenship requirement, there is no chance that the work will be outsourced. Flex-time is fairly extreme; some do randomish hours.
Hint: pick Arlington for a car-free life. Pick Florida to live in a place with no state income tax, a stand-your-ground law, almost no crime, almost no traffic or commute, and houses that commonly go for $100,000 to $400,000.

- nindalf 10y agoIs a stand-your-ground law a perk that you'd advertise? Interesting job description though.
- y_u_no_rust 10y agoall cities with almost no blacks.. hmm!
- souprock 10y agoSome people might love a place with a different sort of attitude from SF/NYC, so I point that out. Others (you?) will be horrified. They can choose a more-familiar style of place: Arlington or Austin or Maryland. We have options.
- rogerhoward 10y agoFlorida is hardly a state with almost no crime; on a per capita basis it ranks well within the top ten, usually close to #5. Miami, Jacksonville, St. Petersburg, and Tampa all have higher violent crime per capita than, for instance, New York, Seattle, Portland, and San Jose.

- souprock 10y agoRight, but Melbourne isn't anything like Miami.
- rogerhoward 10y agoIndeed, I was responding to your "pick Florida" by citing statewide statistics. But Melbourne is, itself, significantly worse than average nationwide, and in fact higher than the Florida state average. https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/fl/melbourne/crime https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/fl/melbourne/crime http://www.city-data.com/crime/crime-Melbourne-Florida.html http://www.city-data.com/crime/crime-Melbourne-Florida.html http://www.cityrating.com/crime-statistics/florida/melbourne.html http://www.cityrating.com/crime-statistics/florida/melbourne...
- Harkins 10y ago> Citizenship is a job requirement. You're violating federal labor law. Specifically, the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), 8 U.S.C. § 1324b. "Employers may not treat individuals differently based on citizenship or immigration status. U.S. citizens, recent permanent residents, temporary residents, asylees and refugees are protected from citizenship status discrimination." Friendly intro: https://www.justice.gov/crt/types-discrimination https://www.justice.gov/crt/types-discrimination If anyone applies for this job and is denied based on citizenship status, here's where to file a charge: https://www.justice.gov/crt/filing-charge https://www.justice.gov/crt/filing-charge
- TheOsiris 10y agoit could be that the job needs a security clearance, which effectively makes citizenship a requirement
- jauer 10y agoBased on the locations + description I suspect this is for Military/IC-related jobs. Those tend to require citizenship...
- souprock 10y agoNope. We qualify for an exemption and in fact are required to require citizenship. You can "file a charge" and have about the same luck you'd get over being declined a job working on orbital rockets, stealth fighters, nukes, submarine propellers, etc. Even HN darling SpaceX requires US citizenship. The fact that the USA has a law which ensures easy foreign access to American trade secrets is... exactly backwards. In any case, it doesn't apply.
- kelseyfrancis 10y agoFor almost all jobs at SpaceX, only permanent residency (i.e., a green card) is required, because that's what ITAR and EAR require. But, yes, of course companies have no choice but to exclude non-citizens from jobs that require a security clearance, because getting a clearance requires citizenship.

- ryandrake 10y agoWhat's the company? I'd guess Lockheed based on the locations and work topics listed.
- tptacek 10y agoThat's Raytheon.
- djent 10y agoNot quite sure how to contact you... users.sf.net leads to sourceforge.net/project/users which is a 404 page.
- souprock 10y agoIt's an email address, not a web page. Send email to albert.
