Since 2002, Xarph has worked in various capacities at a US subsidiary of a famous Japanese conglomerate. He has also survived an IT department that was spun off into a sub-subsidiary.
For six months in 2008, he was a contractor at a world famous Mountain View company as a breath of fresh air before descending back into the depths of Zaibatsu culture.
He is currently acting as a consultant on various doomed projects for an independent fiefdom that has only tangential relations to the mothership.
