I used to work for one of y'alls competitors... JDSU (formerly Acterna)
I'm half tempted to apply, but me being in Houston is an inhibiting factor.

I'm well acquainted with Austin. I lived in South Austin from 1996 till 2004. My son was born at St. David South. I worked on a masters in Industrial Tech @Texas State in San Marcos. I have a brother who has lived in Austin area for over 30 years.
But I need to stay in the area I currently live in because of my 16 y/o son is a STEM dual enrollment program down here. And he depends on my "logistical help" in being in the right place in the right time.

His high school (La Porte H.S.) calls it ACE  (Accelerated College Education), the college San Jacinto College
calls it the "Early College High School Program".  It is very hard to transfer into the program from other schools.
