The company for which I work is currently recruiting for 2 full time perm software engineering positions. These positions are open partly to replace me, since I have recently been promoted. I don't have the exact position requirements, but below should be a pretty accurate summary (with the most important qualifications at the top):
<the requirements are different from what I originally listed - see the update below>
This is a large company located in eastern Tennessee (Erwin), near the North Carolina state line. We are about 45 minutes from Asheville, NC, 2 hours from Knoxville TN, and 20 minutes from Johnson City, TN. I can't go into the nature of our business too much, but we are a government contractor whose primary function is chemical processing.
I don't know what the salary ranges are for these positions, but the cost of living in this area is fairly low, and with that in mind my salary has always been really really good. Plus this company offers a whole host of benefits that are really good.
If anyone needs a job and is qualified, send me a pm and I'll find out what you need to do to apply. If you have other questions, post them in this thread and I'll answer them as best as I can.

UPDATE 4/4/2006:
I just spoke with the department head, and I have a much better idea of what they are wanting (most important requirements near the top):
-the ability to acquire and maintain both DOE and NRC security clearances (at the company's cost. If you already have a clearance, then you are already a step up.)
-ASP.NET (vbscript, javascript) and other .NET languages (c#, vb)
-strong TSQL skills, as well as general proficiency with MS SQL Server
-Contrary to what I originally posted, you DO NOT have to already know PowerBuilder. However, you will probably have to become familiar with it if you accept a position here.
Generally, we are looking for someone with some programming experience - entry level programmers probably will not be considered.
I was told that our company will sometimes offer a signing bonus / relocation package for people that we really want.
I have a "job duties" document I can post if anyone is interested. Also, I now know what the target salary range is. Let me know if you are curious. Finally, if you want to know more about this locale (what there is to do, etc.), let me know.
