Hey guys and gals, my company (Amazon.com) is on a big hiring drive for Software Development Engineers (and Senior SDEs). Since the economy has put many folks out of a job, and since many D&D players are techies, I thought I'd post a note here.
Reply with a text resume and note to me (mikef@amazon.com) with "ENworld gamer/SDE" in the title, and I'll get you into the HR system as a referral. That means you'll have a much better chance of being contacted/considered (and, yes, it means I'll be up for a referral bonus--gotta pay for those 3.5 books somehow).
Specific openings are listed
here (software development) and
here (website development).
Here's one of the many job blurbs from those pages:

We are looking for an engineer who can architect and build a scalable and extensible test harness, a suite of automated test tools and a simulation framework. Additional duties include automating regression tests and end-to-end smoke tests. The ideal candidate will have a bachelor's degree in computer science, or equivalent experience, and 5 or more years of development work with strong focus on quality assurance.
