Well, it’s probably official enough to announce now, I guess.  I’ve had a signed employment agreement for a while, but there was still stuff going on in the background. But this morning I got an official start date.
On 8/25 I’m starting a long-term contract at Lockheed (working on ERAM, which is air traffic control software). The contract is through Aerotek.
I am no longer working for Pine River Capital Management (as of 5/14).
I’m leaving Sun, and going to work for a local company building internal systems for their business (Pine River Capital Management). One of the downsides of this is that I won’t be visiting the Bay Area most months any more. Another downside is that my commute will greatly increase (currently my bed is within 20 feet of my laptop).  Obviously I think there are enough upsides to make it worth it.
