Ok, I guess it's time for me to start looking. *sigh* My financial aid is done and through, I'm no closer to a degree than I was seven years ago (somehow English 1003 never could compete with a well turned algorithm), and it looks like the State hiring freeze is going to prevent the school from giving me a lab technician position. So, here goes: JOB GOALS To get involved in *interesting* computer work in a highly *learning oriented* environment. To be involved with interesting people. I am what my friends call a `utopian programmer', prefering to work on projects that see wide use and are *useful* to lots of people. These considerations outweigh salary for me. EXPERIENCE Overview: I've been working with computers for about ten years now. I started working with micro computers while in high school (an IMSAI 8080 programming in *machine language* via front panel switches!) Since then I've spent most of my time a California State University, Stanislaus working at first on a PDP-11/45 running RSTS/E, and for the last year on a PDP-11/44 running various incarnations of unix as I brought them up (most recently the seismo version of BSD 2.9). Specifics: Extensive assembly language programming on 8080/Z80 micro computer systems writing device drivers. Extensive PDP-11 assembly language programming writing systems software including a mail system for RSTS/E and a three dimensional graphics package. Extensive C programming for systems development under unix associated with managing, maintaining, and expanding unix system facilities. Extensive work in Lisp, Prolog, and C in functional programming. ASSETS I am highly motivated and adapt to and learn new environments very rapidly, and I work well with similarly self motivated people. SPECIFIC AREAS Unix systems development. Functional programming. Fifth OF INTEREST generation systems. Graphics. And anything else *interesting*. I.e. DON'T OFFER COBOL ACCOUNTING SYSTEMS POSITIONS! SALARY If I can live and eat, fine. REGERENCES You want references? I can give you any number of them. I am highly regarded here and am considered a valuable asset to the department and school. Sorry for the length of this (maybe I should have mentioned that I'm very verbose ... But that would be redundant :-) ). I realize that my job goals are a little vague, but I think you get the idea of what I'm looking for.
