The program, called Viral Peace, seeks to occupy the virtual space that extremists fill, one thread or Twitter exchange at a time. Shahed Amanullah, a senior technology adviser to the State Department and Viral Peace’s creator, tells Danger Room he wants to use “logic, humor, satire, [and] religious arguments, not just to confront [extremists], but to undermine and demoralize them.” Think of it as strategic trolling, in pursuit of geopolitical pwnage.

Difficult to get a job offer without securing a visa beforehand, and preferably being in the country already too.. Australia is probably easier for a temporary work permit - check out the '457' visa
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
