Wanted: Ninja flavored open source C programmer

Sourcefire (you know, the Snort people) is currently hiring application
developers for a new open source security analysis system called Razorback.
 Right up front you should be aware of a couple things:  First, you'll be
working in a research-oriented environment, so you'll have to do things like
take time to find the right answer, expand your knowledge base and work
outside your comfort zone.  Reasonable reflexes would be plus (for you, not
us), as at some point research into the conversion of potential to kinetic
energy will occur.

OK, with the caveats and disclaimers out of the way, you should know that
the ideal candidate will have the following skills/abilities/power-ups:

1)  Knowledge of the open source environment

2)  Familiarity with common open source projects

3)  Experience with UNIX based socket programming

4)  Experience with UNIX based pthreads programming

5)  Some background in the network security space

6)  Experience with sql based database programming

7)  Experience with nosql based database programming

8)  Experience with message queuing systems such as ActiveMQ and Rabbit

9)  Desire to work in a close-knit team with a cooperative development
environment
