During the day I work for Hewlett-Packard, my current employer, where I focus on ia64 performance (compiler related). A couple of weeks ago a small seed planted itself in my brain and has since grown into an annoying little voice that continuously tells you the same thing over and over again until you listen. I finally caved and listened: Both FreeBSD and HP require enough attention that I feel that I'm not able to give either of them my fullest. Of the three parties involved (ie HP, FreeBSD and me), I'm the only one who sees it and I want to do something about it before either HP or FreeBSD notices it as well. As far as I can tell I have three options: 1. Stop with FreeBSD and give HP my all, 2. Stop with HP and give FreeBSD my all, 3. Stop with both HP and FreeBSD and bugger all :-) I'm sending this to jobs@ in an attempt to explore 2. I see the following possibilities when focussing on FreeBSD: 1. To find a job that involves working with and on FreeBSD in such a way that I can increase my commitment to FreeBSD, while at the same time provide the necessary value to my employer, 2. To find an academic or R&D position that involves FreeBSD and gcc (for example) in an attempt to explore, analyse and prototype performance opportunities. 3. Find a nice clean gutter in which to do it all without pay :-) I deliberately left out ia64 in the bullets above. My preference would be to have ia64 be a part of it, but I don't view it as a requirement. If you think you have something to offer in this respect, even if it's a good suggestion, pointer or an alternative I have overlooked, let me know. Anything not completely ridiculous helps... Even though it may not be clear from this email, I am willing and able to react quickly when that one offer I cannot possibly refuse presents itself. I'll send my resume upon request.

We have a pet contract management office available to us so you could become a regular employee with salary and benefits if you wish. I'm not sure of our contract managers experience in contracting outside North America, I know he has managed contracts from Canada, USA contracts with Canadian workers, and at least one contract in Mexico with a USA worker. Welcome to the United States of NAFTA. We have been quite unsuccessful at finding any such contracts; in the current (USA) economy the number of companies looking to do basic FreeBSD infrastructure development work can be counted on the fingers of your left foot. I believe FreeBSD Mall is also interested in such work, but solely on FreeBSD. Not a problem for Marcel, of course. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

Welcome > to the United States of NAFTA. Well, I live in the US. I'm just not a permanent resident or a citizen. I haven't yet dug into the possibilities or impossibilities that comes with having a (temporary) work permit, but it's definitely something that can play a role. -- Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004 marcel@xcllnt.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-jobs" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-jobs Thu Nov 21 14:57:15 2002 Delivered-To: freebsd-jobs@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 883A237B401 for ; Thu, 21 Nov 2002 14:57:14 -0800 (PST) Received: from digitaldaemon.com (digitaldaemon.com [63.105.9.34]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with SMTP id C023843E91 for ; Thu, 21 Nov 2002 14:57:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jan@digitaldaemon.com) Received: (qmail 54875 invoked from network); 21 Nov 2002 22:55:32 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO digitaldaemon.com) (192.168.0.220) by digitaldaemon.com with SMTP; 21 Nov 2002 22:55:32 -0000 Message-ID: <3DDD6575.7080505@digitaldaemon.com> Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2002 18:00:05 -0500 From: Jan Knepper Organization: http://www.digitaldaemon.com/ User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2a) Gecko/20020910 X-Accept-Language: en-us, en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: jobs@freebsd.org Subject: Have some C++ programming to do?

I had occasion to enquire about the costs of H1-B sponsorship a couple of years ago. The fees from our then-legal staff in Salt Lake City were $10,500 including all filing fees and paperwork. The contract agency we work with is capable and willing to provide H1-B sponsorship but the sponsorship will have to be paid from the contract, i.e. your pocket. The amount of paperwork is mind-boggling, but that's true of any interaction with the government. You should note that contracting as a non-resident from outside the USA should not be a problem so long as the contracting agency is open for telecommuting. (Hey, it could happen.) I'm not sure we could offer any advantage in that case, but we'd certainly be willing to try. ;^) -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

Here's one site with more info but I'm sure I've seen a much more detailed one in the past. http://www.workpermit.com/us/investor_tn.htm I thought one of the requirements (at least for software professionals) was a degree and a confirmed job offer. Also, I remember reading that just because it says the Computer industry falls under TN1, you could be rejected when you reach the border. E.g. "Systems Analyst" would go through but "Programmer" would immediately be rejected. I can't say for certain it works that way and things may have changed since I last looked into it. You need to do your homework if you take this route.

Yes; we employ one Canadian here (in Hawaii) as a junior systems administrator, though we had to list some kind of confused job title like Systems Analyst* as mentioned. There is still a moderate amount of paperwork, which must be refiled annually, but the expense is nowhere near as high. I believe the employer might have to make an initial statement that they had advertised and failed to fill the job with a U.S. citizen. -- Clifton * Random rant: The government will probably eventually get around to adding terms like "Web designer" and "System administrator" to their job categories about 10 years after those job categories have vanished from the industry. I remember training as a Systems Analyst for a while in the '70s, but does anybody still use the "Systems Analyst" term any more? -- Clifton Royston -- LavaNet Systems Architect -- cliftonr@lava.net "As for yourself, ...

It's nothing that Microsoft wants to be too public, but I read it in a news article from the Register if memory serves, so it's probably true. Now all you need to do is get on the inside track in Redmond... if you're interested. Bottom line, obviously Microsoft has a vested interest in development of the BSD kernel. They should put some of there money up to the table, after all they are reaping the rewards without having to pay anything up front. I think it's more stable personally.. Also, OS X is BSD based as well. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple is putting some money into BSD. Although It does appear as if they have created a new branch on the BSD tree much like Sun Micro did ages ago.

And the Register is not someone I would blindly believe about the origins of Microsoft source, unless they somehow showed me the source :/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-jobs" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-jobs Fri Nov 22 19:47:53 2002 Delivered-To: freebsd-jobs@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8C2AB37B401 for ; Fri, 22 Nov 2002 19:47:52 -0800 (PST) Received: from smtprelay1.dc3.adelphia.net (smtprelay1.dc3.adelphia.net [24.50.78.4]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0DB5443E4A for ; Fri, 22 Nov 2002 19:47:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from e.max@adelphia.net) Received: from adelphia.net ([207.175.241.198]) by smtprelay1.dc3.adelphia.net (Netscape Messaging Server 4.15) with ESMTP id H60EKX08.V11 for ; Fri, 22 Nov 2002 22:19:45 -0500 Message-ID: <3DDEF446.AB6877EE@adelphia.net> Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2002 19:21:42 -0800 From: Maksim Yevmenkin X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.79 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: jobs@freebsd.org Subject: Looking for a new job Content-Type: text/plain; charset=koi8-r Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-jobs@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hello, I'm currently employed, but there is no guarantee that it will be this way much longer. I'm looking for a UNIX software developer position. I'm authorized to work in USA, and my current status is H1B, so I will need an H1B transfer. I'm willing to accept positions in Canada and Europe, but I do need sponsorship. I will also consider any Windows software development positions and probably system administration.
