Organization: Verdix Western Operations; Aloha, OR

Verdix Western Operations has openings for experienced software engineers
in the areas of code generation, compilation and run-time libraries,
production engineering, and customer support.  We also have one (possibly
two) entry level positions open.  We offer a wide-range of software
engineering challenges and an excellent work environment including flex
hours, work-at-home, and state of the art computer systems.

Our product is the Verdix Ada Development System (VADS) which runs on
many UNIX platforms and VAX/VMS.  VADS is both a self-hosted development
system (producing programs to run on UNIX or VMS systems) and a cross-
compiler (producing programs to run on real time embedded targets).

In addition to a high-quality Ada compiler, VADS provides a fully
symbolic screen-oriented debugger, an automatic Ada make facility,
and many other tools for Ada development.  Our cross-compiler also
supports complete symbolic cross debugging (optionally using an in-
circuit emulator) and includes a user-configurable, high-performance
real-time executive.

Verdix Western Operations is an all-engineering outfit.  Our offices
are in the Oregon Graduate Institute in Aloha, Oregon, offering graduate
education, tennis, volleyball, and golf.  Aloha is approximately ten
miles west of Portland.  The beautiful Pacific coast is one hour away,
and Mt. Hood, where you can ski year-round, is less then 90 minutes
away, as is world class wind surfing in Hood River.

We have openings for experienced software engineers, as follows:

o Product Support Engineer: $35-$40K
Our Product Support group needs an engineer familiar with embedded-systems 
programming, UNIX, C and Ada.  Responsibilities will include providing 
technical phone support and running Quality Assurance tests on a wide range
of state-of-the-art host and targets.

o Senior Engineer, Compiler Development and Enhancements: $55-$70K
We have many significant feature enhancements in the queue for our
compiler technology.  We are looking for an engineer experienced in all
phases of compiler development: language semantics, optimization, and
code generation.  Ada semantics and/or C++ semantics, i.e., front end
experience, is a plus.

o Senior Engineer, 386/486/P5 product line: $55-$70K
Our x86 product line contains self-hosted products (eg., NCR 3000 running
UNIX SVR4) as well as cross products (e.g., IBM RS/6000 -> i386 embedded
systems).  We need an experienced engineer to be in charge of this
entire product line.  This work includes building and monitoring the
regression testing products as well as working on code generation 
and run-time system strategies for Intel's P5, the followon for the 486.

o Engineer, code generation and optimization: $45-$55K
Retarget our compiler to new environments, including unannounced and
state-of-the-art targets.  We have one opening for an engineer experienced
with code generation and run time issues for embedded systems.  Intel
960 experience is a plus.

o Entry level software engineers; $32-$40K
We have openings for one, possibly two engineers who want to gain
experience in the areas of compilers, debuggers, embedded real time
systems, or any of the tools and technology necessary to deliver
production quality language development systems to the market (e.g.,
performance measurement, interfacing to in-ciruit emulation hardware).
We have had much success with a "learn as you contribute" program.
We are looking for applicants with the ability and desire to become
valuable contributing senior engineers over time.  BS in computer
science or electrical engineering.

In you are interested, please send a resume (DO NOT CALL) using either
e-mail or US mail to the address below.  Include which position or
positions you are applying against.
