science problems? When people talk about you do they use adjectives
like "brilliant," "super-smart," or "uber-geek"?
* Do you like to question authority, challenge the status quo, and believe that you can
do most things better than most people? Are you a bit of a
troublemaker?
* Do you think that life is too short to develop, market, sell, and
support boring me-too products that don't break new ground?
* Would you like to be part of a passionate team that will revolutionize the
way software is developed, tested, and released?
* Do you have a good sense of humor and a thick skin?

Small print: Agitar is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer. Agitar
recognizes the value of diversity of experience and perspective when
coupled with mastery of the skills necessary for each position. Agitar
seeks racial diversity but, because humans are the only known beings
capable of building a great software company, today only hires
individuals of the human race. Agitar provides equal opportunity to
qualifying humans regardless of gender, ethnicity, color, national
origin, age, religious affiliation (or lack thereof), sexual preference
or orientation (or lack thereof), et cetera. Agitar also provides equal
opportunity regardless of one's preference of Java IDEs, Java Virtual
Machines, and other software development tools. Agitar seeks
individuals who have a high level of intellectual ability, intensity, integrity,
and initiative to contribute to our team. Agitar will not increase
diversity for its own sake at the expense of hiring people who are incapable,
ineffective, untrustworthy, or unmotivated. But if you have what it
takes to be an agitator, come and help us shake up the world of
software development.
