Taos Mountain Software, a Mountain View, CA based Unix Contracting and Training
company, has several Unix contract openings.  Taos Mountain offers its 
contractors health insurance, educational reimbursement, business cards, 
internet access, and membership to the Taos Mountain Soccer Team.  
We also work hard to keep our contractors busy from one contract to another.  
      ----- Ask about our $250 contractor/client finder's fee. ----- 

TMS has an exciting opportunity for several contractors to work in the 
software support department of a leading UNIX workstation manufacturer.

We have been asked to fill needs in the following groups:
	Comm, Languages, Graphics, UNIX, Hardware

============================TMS Req number 130 ================================
For the languages group, we are looking for somebody to support
the front line engineers (in other words, no telephone experience
required).  You will be asked to work on getting client programs
debugged, determining if they are compiler bugs or simply bugs in
the customers code, etc.

For the language group you should have (in this priority)
	*	Strong C programming skills
	*	Strong UNIX skills (i.e. solid knowledge of system
		call interface, C library, other libraries.
	*	A skilled FORTRAN Programmer
	*	knowledge of other programming languages such as ADA,
		Pascal, etc.
	*	A willingness to learn, good communication skills, etc

The graphics group has similar requirements.  Many of the calls that
come into that group are more programming related than graphics.  However,
the more graphics experience you have, the better the fit.  This position
will be a front line support position, so that extensive phone work will
be required.

For the Comm and Unix groups, we are looking for strong UNIX types (not 
necessarilly Unix programmers).  More important would be a strong knowledge
of the UNIX utilities, especially in the sys admin side of things.  For
the comm group, knowledge of NIS, NFS, TCP/IP, UUCP, etc. would be ideal.

The hardware will need good UNIX skills (sys admin, utilities, etc.) but
also someone who has done Unix hardware support (someone with Field 
Engineering experience would be perfect).

The group you'll be working with is a close knit group.  The length of
the contract is initially 3 months but could in fact be longer than
that.  Interested?
