[LLVMdev] FW: A message to post please (EDITED, thanks): "Position available: C / C++ Developer: Compiler & Tools SDK"

[Andrew Gifford]

Hi,

Hope you can help. Grateful for your time.

I was in touch recently requesting the drop opportunity below be shared
with your distribution list (it was originally declined as hadn't provided
sufficient context about LLVM. I provided the edited version, below, on
27th of January).

Please can you confirm, has this been sent out to your distribution list?

We have not had much response, so I just wanted to be sure! You would be
willing to consider any additional edit requests or suggestions in order
to satisfy your requirements.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Andrew

radically effective products.

Advances in modern computer hardware, particularly the advent of
multi-core and parallel computing CPU / GPU architectures has created a
significant issue for organisations and software development
professionals, and in turn a strong market opportunity: analysing
application code performance, re-engineering and optimising the code to
take advantage of today’s and tomorrow’s computing capabilities.

Reporting to the CTO, your main remit is contributing to core development
of two software products, both targeted at applications developers: the
compilers and core functionality for data and hardware performance
analysis and visualisation SDK, and optimised software libraries. The main
product is a development tool to analyse software source code. This
product is implemented using the LLVM framework to allow many target
languages to be supported and to make use of the optimisation engines and
developments that operate on the LLVM IR.

An extreme / pair programming methodology has been adopted, for the best
performance and innovation. This also promotes an expert collaborate team
environment, with freedom to contribute fresh ideas and input challenges
towards product development.


You'll be working at the forefront of embedded and hardware technologies,
addressing significant problems for major corporations and software
development professionals worldwide. As the produce range evolves and
expands, you will be contributing to many core and associated areas of
functionality right across compilers, tools and SDK technologies.

Urgently sought:

Excellent C, C++ and low level Assembly. A strong working knowledge of
LLVM, and experience of developing engines to operate on the LLVM IR.
Strong compiler optimisation engine development skills would be a bonus.
Complete software development life-cycle skills, including testing and
debugging. Self-starter, excellent time management and prioritisation
abilities. Flexibility and commitment to the success of a young growing
company.

Salary and benefits:

£32,000 - £37,500 joining salary. Stock options. 25 days annual leave. 12
