He started as a govie and wants to finish there.
Another reason, he wants to contribute to our country or to a non-profit but live overseas.
Plus it would be a different experience/work environment from his current high-tech company.

Not IMF. They don't post it folks abroad.

My husband is a computer nerd with in demand skills computer both coding (security and performance) and management. He works at a big computer company... think Apple, Foursquare, IBM, Google, Facebook...before that, he did some DOD contractor work for a while and really enjoyed it. Before he retires for good, he would like to spend his last 3-5 years working for some government agency overseas - preferably Europe. He understands he would take a significant pay cut and is not interested in upward mobility in the position - he wants the overseas government experience.

My question is what agencies would you recommend he consider?
IMF, State Department, DOD/MTF contractor, CIA????
