[can.jobs] Programming job in Vancouver

demco@ubc-ean.CDN (John Demco) (10/26/84)

CONSORTEL, a consortium of fifty colleges, universities and other interested
non-profit organizations is establishing a prototype Canada-wide X.25 PSP
network for the exchange of NAPLPS and telematics materials, using 
sophisticated distributed messaging software developed at U.B.C.
   
CONSORTEL is seeking a programmer/technician to assist in the
implementation and operation of this network on a contractual basis starting
immediately.
    
The programmer/technician will be based in Vancouver, and will be expected
to work closely with the EAN and CDNNET projects in the Department of
Computer Science at U.B.C.  His or her duties will include extending the EAN
software to allow the inclusion of NAPLPS messages, distributing the software
to major and minor nodes of the network (which will be largely VAX/UNIX (4.2 
BSD) and VAX/VMS sites during the prototype phase) and assisting 
(mainly by phone and electronic mail) with the installation and maintenance 
of the software.
     
A good knowledge of UNIX and 'C' is essential, as are good communication 
skills.  A degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience is desirable
and knowledge of NAPLPS would be an asset.
       
Applications from Graduate Students, on a part-time basis, will be considered.
