Send it to me. Let me know which position(s) you think you'd fit. I can
then pass everything on to the hiring manager and bypass HR for the
initial intro :).

I'm told the jobs mostly have not yet made it on our careers site, so I'm
uncertain of how to get to HR other than just blindly emailing. It's
better to talk directly to the hiring manager anyway.

ciao,
