** Performance Analysis Benchmarking Yates Ventures, a software market research firm specializing in the UNIX operating system, is looking for a highly motivated person to head our Benchmarking Service. The initial primary duties include performing the AIM Suite II benchmark tests on a large number of different computers, analyzing the results and producing an ongoing report. Other duties will include client presentations of sample data, investigation into the theoretical and practical application of multiuser and network performance measurement, and objective modeling of applications environments. Applicants should have "hacker" level experience with UNIX and considerable interest (and ambition) in the area of formal benchmarking. C programming almost essential. Research experience helpful, but remember that we are a commercial (i.e. for profit) establishment (ah, pragmatics)! This is a high visibility position (much industry/professional contact). We offer adequate but not spectacular salaries, an entrepeneurial environment, and stimulating work. Unfortunately, we cannot help with relocation expenses except under exceptional circumstances. This is a career position, not a "9-to-5" job. The position will begin approximately October 1. Future possibilities for the position are limited only by applicant's imagination and personal initiative. Still interested?
