[net.jobs] Personal computer software development at DEC

fleischer@viking.DEC (Bob Fleischer LJO2/E4 DTN 282-2323 Rainbow) (06/27/84)

DEC's Rainbow software engineering group is expanding and has a number
of positions open at a variety of levels.  We are looking for software
engineers, supervisors, and senior level managers who have
considerable experience in the applicable areas of personal computer
software.  Managers and supervisors are expected to be lead technical
contributors as well as having demonstrated supervisory capability.
Senior-level people will participate in long-range planning and
strategy for the product family.

Our group is involved in the development of nearly all kinds of
systems and interface software for Digital's Rainbow family of
Intel-processor-based personal computers.  And since our philosophy for
designing new hardware products is that their design must meet the
needs of the software, the software engineers have considerable
influence over new hardware designs.

If you are interested in working on any of the following areas,
you'll find challenging opportunities in our group.  (If you see
that something is missing from the list, then we really have an
opportunity for you!)

	o  personal computer operating systems, both "traditional"
		(MS-DOS and CP/M) and advanced multitasking systems.
	o  advanced user interfaces, including Microsoft Windows
		and other windowing and graphics products.
	o  local-area networks and communications, ranging from
		transport layers to user networking interfaces.
	o  distributed computing products providing such features
		as transparent access to larger systems (VAX et al).
	o  software development tools, testing tools, diagnostics,
		quality assurance.

We are looking for people with thorough knowledge of how personal computer
software is designed and used and with visions of what future software
products should be.

Despite the fact that DEC is a large company, our software engineering
group is moderate in size and has the camaraderie of a small but
growing high-tech firm.  Because we are a large company, there are a
lot of resources available.  There are significant opportunities for
growth both within the group and in the company at large.  In some
cases the jobs will involve liaison work with other engineering or
support organizations within DEC, in others there will be contact with
customers or external software developers.

We are located about 50 minutes northwest from Boston.  Salary and
benefits are competitive  (They really are!  We don't try to pay you
with stock options;  initial paid vacation time is 2 weeks, but we work
something out for people who want more time.)

describing your experience) to:
