Oregon State University has an opening for two Information Security Analysts. In this role, you’ll help us build a 
security program at a leading research university located in one of the safest, smartest, greenest small cities in the 
nation.

Know anybody that is into outdoor activities? That is looking for summers without rain and a mild, year-round climate? 
Someone that loves beer and or wine?

OSU is located in beautiful Corvallis, the western-most city (with a population >50k) in the lower 48. Nestled against 
the coast range, Corvallis is midway in the Willamette Valley: we’re 46 miles from the beautiful Oregon coast, 85 miles 
from Portland, and 86 miles from the nearest Ski resort. (Yes, you could surf and snow ski in the same day.) Our 
climate is called “cool-summer Mediterranean” with mild temperatures year round and warm, long, very dry summers. If 
you can think of an outdoor activity, you can likely do it here. I don’t mean to brag, but living in Corvallis is like 
being on vacation year round.

Don’t just take my word for it—other people like us:

The American Institute for Economic Research ranked us as #3 in their Top 20 College Towns.

But that’s not all. Like Beer? Oregon is #3 in craft breweries per capita. Wine? #3 in wineries and #4 in production. 
And with both of those we’re focusing on quality, not quantity, with OSU home to programs in Vintery, Enology, Brewing 
and Fermenting Sciences. And to keep that from going to your waist, you can join us all as we ride our bikes to work; 
per a 2011 study by the Census Bureau, Corvallis has the highest percentage of bicycle commuters in the nations (9.3%). 
And for you sci-fi/post-apocalyptic fiction fans, Corvallis served as the center of rebuilding civilization in The 
Postman.

Oh, and the job is great too. OSU is an incredible, supportive environment that cares about its people.  You’ll work in 
a collaborative environment to help develop increased security capacity amongst the various IT shops on campus.

Interested, or know someone who is? Here’s the posting:

Thanks,
