[Baylisa-jobs] Security Operations Engineer, Twitter

Mon Jun 16 19:44:42 PDT 2014

Hello,

The Infosec team at Twitter has a number of openings, and I thought that
this one in particular would be of interests to the (Bay)Lisa crowd, as
it very much overlaps with the world and practice of System
Administration or Site Reliability Engineering, if you will.

I've deliberately tried to keep the job posting void of
certification/degree requirements, and tried to minimize buzzword
compliance.

We are particularly interested in women or other minorities in this
field.

Please apply directly via this link:

Or, if you have questions, just email me.
