    I'm not sure if it appropriate to post this here. I'm not a recruiter, just a previous employee of the company seeking.

    If permitted, and if anyone is interested, I'll post a few details.

    Please keep any questions not directly concerning personal information on thread. No point in it being here if its not helpful to the security community in general rather than just an advertisement and it may help users learn more about what is and is not useful for working in the security field.

    No problem. Thanks for letting it run.

    I've emailed the company for detailed specs. In the meantime, what I know is...

    It's a Dublin City based company. They are primarily, but not exclusively a telecoms software consultancy. When the job was mentioned to me, there was talk of 'cloud security', which I interpreted as multi-tenancy virtual environments, and maybe a bit of SaaS type stuff. This is based on what I know of the company.

    Based on previous employment with them, I can say that if you have the skills, they are very open to suggestion on how to run things. Once I proved myself, I was given free rein in terms of software selection and methodology. I would imagine the same would apply to a security person.

    Once I know more, I will post here.
