We have a client looking for Unix File Systems long-term consulting help. This work can be done remotely with occasional visits to client site out of state. Details are as follows: Project Description: This is a need for a Sr. File Systems Engineer to work remotely via a virtual office, There is potential for a client visit every 6-8 weeks. This is a very strategic and high visibility project with a large end-client. Optical based storage, OSD project. This resource will be part of the core program that is in charge of fully designing a file system for work in conjunction with an OSD driver. There are around 5 people on the project - 2 SCSI engineers/1 file systems engineer/1 embedded engineer. They are in the architecture phase right now. Even with the consultant working from a virtual office, they will be held accountable to a regular schedule, (meaning you must work core business hours) Required Skills: - Unix file systems (Constructs such as VFS, vnodes, inodes, caching, B+trees, disk layouts, index and hashing mechanisms) - File System Internals experience is key (Understand of, and ability to comfortably converse about, inodes, allocations groups, how to manipulate internals of a file system) - SW development - Strong C - Strong Unix - Unix development tools - Embedded systems development is a big plus - NetBSD is a big plus **** A junior file systems engineer would still be considered as long as they have a reasonable amount of understanding of File systems internals. **** Regards, John John Spencer (978) 256-1113 ext 7608 jspencer@optimaleng.com OPTIMAL ENGINEERING PARTNERS "Your Optimal partner for full-lifecycle engineering services in embedded and real-time, systems and application development" www.optimalengineering.com <http://www.optimalengineering.com/>
