Hello everyone!

First, the link:

https://appstate.peopleadmin.com/postings/20871

Now the goods. App is hiring someone to join our InfoSec team. It will
be a mix of SecOps (some sysadmin for sec servers, some python,
maybe some powershell, some BIND and DLZs, zeek, the Elastic
stack and some parts of the G Suite) and Policy/Compliance (you'll get
a little bit of HIPAA and PCI). For good measure you may get to spend
some time on user awareness training, too!

We have *what I consider* to be the prettiest winter campus in the
state of North Carolina. If you're vulgar and use Fahrenheit, low 80s
in the summer is awfully hot and we typically stay above zero in the
winter. Three ski slopes within thirty minutes of campus, one that's
close enough we have skiing and snowboarding as PE classes. Three
micro-breweries within a mile of campus. The Appalachian Trail and
Linville Gorge Wilderness are close-by for the hikers and campers.

Asheville, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, Charlotte, Bristol and Johnson
City are within two hours. Knoxville, Raleigh, Roanoke and Blacksburg
are fewer than three hours. I've ridden a motorbike to Manteo/Kitty
Hawk/Kill Devil Hills for lunch and been home in time for (a late) supper.

The only requirements are a 4-year tech degree *OR* experience; if
you know anyone wanting to make the move from <some tech field> or
<recent graduate> to infosec, send them our way!! None of that
nonsense where an MS or a list of fifty certs are required (though
we'll help you get one or two!).

I am NOT the hiring manager, the position reports to my boss (the CISO).
