Re: Greetings all from OR



I work for IBM here in Portland, for their NUMA-Q division. The division makes Non Uniform Memory Architecture Datacenter servers. These puppies are state of the art, 64 processors, 8 GB of RAM, Class II Fiber Optic Channel, 112 PCI slots. mmm. Makes a tasty Quake Server. :-) Anyway, these machines run a DYNIX/ptx flavor of Unix, and i'm almost positive that they are always looking for Software Engineers.
 
We're right next door to The Nike Corporate Campus, SW and SE Portland are just minutes away, you're about 10 minutes from Portland Community College and right next to MAX, Portlands Light Rail transit system that stretches 33 miles and will take you about anywhere you need to go. Cost of living isn't too bad and IBM definatly pays competativly and it's a great place to work.

search for your job of choice and look for titles with OR for Oregon.
 
We're also a stones throw away from Lockheed/Martin, Intel, Tektronix, and a handful of other tech companies here in the Silicon Forest. And high bandwidth is afoot, with your choice of ADSL, VDSL, Cable Modem or Satellite.
 
And we have lots of stuff to do around Portland, There are any number of good shows to go to every night, The Portland Opera, The Symphony, The Portland Museum, 400+ wineries in the area and 5 microbreweries.
 
You should come just to check it out and job hunt for the week.
