[can.jobs] Positions in Montreal, posted for a friend.

This is a very informal job notice, posted for a friend.  They desperately
need more people.  I don't think that their personnel dept. is actively
searching for people, but since they are funded for twice as many people as 
they have, I expect that they would seriously consider anybody interested
enough to contact them.

A company in Montreal doing testing of on-board computers and computerized 
weaponry systems for the new Canadian Patrol Frigates needs people with:

	- EE and/or CSc
	- Some background in weaponry systems would be really useful.
	- 4 years or more experience.
	- some exposure to Sperry computers would be useful
	- I think "careful" and "methodical" would be an appropriate attribute 
	  to have

The positions seem to involve:

	- multiple CPUs and networking
	- specialized distributed databases
	- possibly interesting travel (eg: Sweden and the Netherlands) and/or
	  "sea trials"
	- primarily testing/validation and test design/specification of 
	  weaponry, communications, control, and maintenance systems.
	- little development of the systems themselves
	- salary mid-40's and up plus lots of paid overtime (unless they
	  completely fill their funding level :-)).
	- my friend really loves working there.  Though the technology
	  is relatively old (everything military is obsolete before it
	  gets into production) they seem to have the savvy and money to
	  do things right (eg: some pretty spectacular simulators).

If you are interested, call (514)-340-8583 weekdays and early evenings, and 
ask for Fred.
