        environments, ensure that appropriate management is apprised of
        project status, and bring projects to completion.
      * Gain a clear understanding of client environment, identify
        client needs, and effectively communicate solutions.
      * Develop tools for internal team use.
      * Develop and complete an education plan to grow your skills
        consistent with client needs.
      * Conduct research on security topics, and develop tools and
        documentation to assist security team activities.
      * Provide network security technical support and consultation to
        customers and internal resources.

      * Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related
        discipline; equivalent experience acceptable.
      * Fluency in at least one .NET language; experience with
        multi-tier web application design.

      * Demonstrated experience presenting technology recommendations
        from a business perspective, including architectural guidance.
      * Additional programming experience in other common languages.
