     HCR Corporation is a Toronto-based developer of UNIX systems software.
     We  specialize  in operating systems, compilers (especially optimizing
     compilers), and system software products.  We have  been  in  business
     since  1976, and we've been in the UNIX business for all of that time.
     (You may know us under our earlier name "Human Computing Resources".)

     The company staff are primarily technical professionals.  We offer  an
     exciting  atmosphere where you can work with highly competent software
     developers.

     Development of our business has now created three new openings.


     1. Project Manager

     We are now expanding our activities in networking, communications, and
     particularly  in  distributed  processing.  This growth has created an
     opening for a project manager with the following qualifications:

        + a strong and varied technical background with at least 5 years
          of experience which includes software development as part of a
          team and work in communications, networking, distributed processing,
          and/or UNIX internals;

        + experience in taking ideas from the development stage to market
          delivery, and ability to match technical specifications to market
          requirements;

        + proven creativity;

        + experience managing a software development team;

        + excellent verbal and written communication skills;

        + experience in customer relations with respect to either the support
          or development of software.

     2. UNIX and VMS Programmer/Support Specialist

     The application is an implementation of UNIX under VMS, called  UNITY.
     The  position  involves  developing  and maintaining UNITY, as well as
     supporting UNITY customers.

     The successful candidate will have experience with both  the  VMS  and
     the  Unix  operating  systems, as well as with programming in C.  Good
     communication skills and a knowledge of  operating  system  principles
     are important.


     3. UNIX, C Programmer (Programming Language Products)

     HCR has a range of language products which run on many UNIX  machines.
     The  position  involves  porting, debugging, and developing these pro-
     ducts on many different computers such  as  the  IBM  RT  PC,  the  HP
     9000/840, the Convex C1, AT&T 3Bs and 6300+, IBM mainframes, etc.

     The successful candidate will have strong C programming  skills,  good
     communication  skills  and  UNIX experience, as well as an interest in
     programming languages.  Experience with BASIC or Pascal is a  definite
     asset.

     HCR Corporation provides an exciting work  environment  in  a  profes-
     sional  atmosphere.   Our clients include the world's largest computer
     companies, giving you an opportunity to work  on  major  projects  and
     still  enjoy  the  advantages of a smaller company.  We are located in
     the heart of Toronto, one of North America's most livable  cites.   We
     offer  competitive  salaries, profit-sharing, a share option plan, and
     comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, life insurance, drug
     and optical, and both short and long term disability insurance.

     All job applicants must have or be able to obtain  Canadian  permanent
     resident  status.   (In  some cases we can assist with this, if neces-
     sary, although it is much easier for us to hire Canadian  citizens  or
     permanent residents.)
