spotter@tekcad.UUCP (Steve Potter) (01/08/84)
I am seeking a programming position in California. I am currently
working in the IC-CAD (Integrated Circuits - Computed Aided Design) group,
Tektronix, Beaverton, Oregon. My wife and I are getting a little tired of
the rain and would like to move back to sunny California. We would prefer
northern California outside Silicon Valley (especially the Santa Cruz area
- anybody there?) but other locations in California will be considered. I
will be available to start early to mid February.
Much of my experience is CAD related, but I have a wide range of
interests including (but not limited to) simulation, graphics, compilers,
operating systems, and debuggers.
I wish to program in a UNIX (tm) environment in C or some other struc-
tured language (not fortran, basic, cobol). No startups or
military/"defense" projects, please.
