carl@rtech.ARPA (Carl Resnikoff ) (02/11/85)

Relational Technology Inc (RTI) is seeking a Unix System Manager to manage
a combination of Vaxes, supermicrocomputers, and superminicomputers running
various flavors of UNIX.

Company Description:

RTI is a rapidly expanding, innovative software company located in
Berkeley, California.  Founded in 1980, we are a people- and
results-oriented company with an excellent, informal work environment.
INGRES, RTI's principal product, is viewed as the leading independently
produced high-performance relational DBMS.  It provides a complete set
of application development and end-user tools.

  INGRES is supported on many computer systems.  Total company size is
approaching 200 employees.  RTI has had consistent growth in sales and
profits since 1981.  The company is privately-held, but will likely go
public over the next year or two.  RTI will move to a new 5-story
facility in Alameda in March.

Job Description:

The work involves tuning systems, assisting users, load balancing,
networking, troubleshooting, developing system utilities, establishing
procedures, and working with vendors on problem resolution and
installations.

 Our Unix environment consists of the following:  Four Vaxes (750s &
780s) with a combination of 4.2 BSD, System V, and Ultrix.  An IBM 4341
running UTS (Unix v7) under VM.  Several superminis including a Pyramid
and CCI Power 6.  Other machines include Sun, 3b5, 3b2, NCR Tower,
Burroughs Megaframe, and Masscomp.  More UNIX machines will be acquired
as we close deals with other hardware vendors that want INGRES. RTI
also has several Vaxes running VMS. Many of our machines are networked
with TCP/IP and Ethernet. RTI has a System V and BSD source license,
and Usenet connections.

This is a senior position that will provide leadership and
training for an Associate Unix System Manager who will assist in
managing these systems.

  Most of the UNIX users are very knowledgeable.  This job is very
demanding but should be excellent for those who like a continual
variety of challenges in a dynamic environment.

Job Qualifications:

-Minimum of 3 years of UNIX System Management experience preferred.

-In-depth knowledge of UNIX (preferably 4.2 and System V) and C language.

-Systems programming experience (operating systems,
 compilers, and/or DBMS) either in school and/or jobs.

-Appropriate disposition to work well with a variety of users
 and under pressure when a system is down.

-BSCS, BSEE, or equivalent.

-Permanent resident or US citizen.

RTI offers a competitive salary and benefits package with stock options.
We are an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer.
