<p class="MsoNormal">Despite living happily in Minnesota, I'm back working for the Washington Post in their IT department. I've been putting my IS degree to good use in the Endpoint Engineering team where we're responsible for designing and maintaining the
systems for provisioning new desktops and laptops, deploying software updates, patches, and gathering inventory information. The wider Engineering department as a whole though does a fair amount of development work and has a paid summer intern program for
those interested. There's a link below to a twitter thread with a brief explanation and places where folks can get more info.<o:p></o:p></p>
