Hello Matt, 

Please see the Job Announcements listed below.  

We are actually looking for two people.  One person will be located here in
Aurora, and the other will be at our sister location in Falls Church, VA.
Notionally, Position 1 will be in VA and Position 2 will be in CO...But this
is not set in stone.  Thus, candidates are encouraged to apply to the
position of which they are best qualified, regardless of the listed
location.

I am also attaching a word document containing the job announcement in a
nicer format than just plain text.

Thank you very much for circulating!
