                        Staff Associate Position

     The  Computer  Science Department at Columbia University is seeking
applicants to fill a position as Staff  Associate  with  the  Facilities
Hardware  Group.  The Hardware Group provides engineering support to the
Department and  coordinates  the  acquisition,  installation,  use,  and
maintenance of equipment used in research activities.

     Responsibilities of this position will be broad, but will center on
engineering support, troubleshooting and repairing a variety of computer 
and  communication  hardware,   as  well  as  designing  and  assembling 
electronic devices.  This  person will also have complete responsibility 
for the maintenance of  a  few  larger  systems such as workstations and 
mini-computers.

     High  aptitude  in analog and digital troubleshooting techniques is
required, as well as a strong interest in  becoming  fluent  in  network
hardware  concerns  in  a  diversified  computing environment.  Specific
expertise is a plus, but is not required; there will be time to train on
unfamiliar equipment.

     The Department facilities currently include a DEC-2060,  IBM  4381,
AT&T  3B20,  seven  VAX 11/750's, Symbolics LISP machines,  and numerous
workstations manufactured by Sun and  Hewlett  Packard.    Our  research
community  consists  of  110  faculty,  Phd  students  and  staff.   The
Morningside Heights Campus of Columbia University is located in northern
Manhattan, removed from, yet convenient to the city's many  attractions.
Benefits include tuition-exemption and access to university facilities.

     Columbia  University  is  an  equal-opportunity  employer.   We are
interested  in  receiving  applications   from   qualified   women   and
minorities.
