I’ve been at my current job for 5 years. We got bought by a big company a couple of years ago, and (with the uncertainty ahead) I started looking for another place to work. Then I got sick of looking and decided when the right job came along, I’d know. I still got my regular spam from monster.com, but for the most part, I quit paying any attention to the job market.

Then my friend Aaron called me several weeks ago. That’s not really out of the ordinary…we talk all the time. This call was different. He wanted to talk with me about going to work for him. I said we could talk it over.

So we talked. We talked about where I am in my career now, and we talked about what I could do to help his company going forward. We got all of the details worked out earlier this week, and I’ll be officially a part of SafeBrowse.com in about 10 days.

I’m excited about the move. And I’m not just saying that because half of SafeBrowse.com reads my blog. It will be good to work closely with some great friends I’ve known for 10 years now. (10 years?! wow!)

I’ll get to do a lot of stuff I’m currently very familiar with: Active Directory, server management, firewalls, routers, flesh-eating robots, etc. And then I’ll get to stretch my skills a bit getting into supporting the infrastructure for their products. It’s all geek stuff, yes, but I like that sort of thing.
