    mechanisms for paging, scheduling, file system management, and system
    monitoring and control will be your primary responsibilities.  Your
    qualifications must include a minimum of 3-5 years of operating system
    experience, complemented by an advanced degree in Computer Science.

Peripheral Subsystem Development

    Your major focus will be the design and implementation of a high
    throughput input/output system.  Your qualifications must include at
    least 3-5 years of operating system experience, together with either a
    B.Sc. or B.S.E.E. degree.

Problem Diagnosis and Resolution

    Locating, diagnosing and tracking system problems will be your main
    priorities.  You will also develop procedures that will become the
    basis for software field support.  Your qualifications must include
    demonstrated troublshooting abilities, at least 2 years of experience
    in customer support, and a B.Sc. in Computer Science or related
    discipline.

Field Support Software Development

    You will face the challenge of designing and implementing software
    diagnostics and tools for field support.  Your qualifications must
    include 2-5 years of programming experience and a B.Sc. in Computer
    Science or related discipline.
