Microsoft Hiring Hacker For Next Xbox Experience?
In a job listing on Microsoft's site for a Service Engineer, the company describes their ideal candidate as someone who tends to "void the warranty on every device" they own, and make "devices do things never intended by the manufacturer."
"We are looking for a Senior Service Engineer to help define the next generation of entertainment devices and services, and to help ensure our customers have the best possible experience, even when things go wrong. Well-qualified candidates have extensive experience in running web-based services, deconstructing interaction between client and servers (via a combination of logging, network traces, and so on); have a good understanding of C# and/or PowerShell, and excellent ability to communicate verbally and on paper."
They do make references to the "next generation of entertainment," so it is probably safe to say that this is related Xbox 720 in some form.
Or, this could just be a move by Microsoft to enhance its security for the Xbox 720. Piracy and hacks have become almost too easy to do on the Xbox 360, so it's easy to think Microsoft would want to recruit some fresh knowledge in this area.

xxL3g1tqu1cksc0pexxReductionMTVZwrqMr_UnknownFeetZwrq Hopefully this works and this console isn't very exploitable.
Yeah, it will be more enjoyable.
Both of you, just GTFO!! This is a website soley designed on console modding/hacking/exploits. Without these things, this site wouldn't exist. Btw, there has never been even 1 thing to be released publicly that wasn't exploitable.
You're 12 or uneducated, either way you can "GTFO." It's TheTechGame, not The10thLobbyGame.
Completely true. People seem to think they other way around.
'Solely' based on console modding... I think not, go look at the forums, how many sections do you see on modding?
This is a gaming/tech forum. Not modding.
Yea, not many people know that.

xxL3g1tqu1cksc0pexxFeetHallReduction Anyway, this could turn out 1 of two ways, 1. Secure console for all 2. hackable console modified for all. I'm looking towards option 1 though :P
I'm hoping the first way as well haha
I highly doubt it will be easily hackable.
I agree, they probably improved tons of things which made it non hackable.
Yep, this is new for them I think and they haven't been very hack able in the past, should be even more secure.
