The interview is long over, the offer letter has been signed, and my two-week's notice has been given, so now the story can be told. As many of you know, for the the past year and a half I've been working at
EE Internet. The time has come to move on.
A few weeks back, I came across a job posting on the
AK LUG mailing list from a company in Anchorage looking for developers (programmers). I replied and asked if it would work as a telecommute job from Fairbanks. The answer was: "It's a slim chance, but let's give it a try." So, after sending them my resume, I flew down to Anchorage for an interview on September 25th. They liked me enough to make the telecommuting thing work, and I start work on November 5th.
I'll be working for
S&K Aerospace a Montana native corporation, and the only non-Alaskan native corporation doing business in Alaska. They are a military contractor developing technology solutions for the armed forces in Alaska. I will be doing web application development, mostly in Python (woohoo!).
The best part is, I'll be working from home, so will get to be around my family so much more. We're all looking forward to it, and are very thankful for this opportunity. Crystal and I have been praying for a work-from-home job for me probably as long as we've been married, and God provided this job.
I'm excited!
