If I remember correctly, Chris Lattner added the rule back when we first 
made llvmdev a public mailing list (I helped moderate the list).  The 
goal, as I recall, was to keep messages on llvmdev on-topic.  If we 
allowed non-LLVM related job posts, we'd probably get swamped with job ads.

As far as I can tell, the community has supported this rule; I haven't 
seen any complaints against it.

Regards,

John Criswell

The scope of the work is fairly broad and is closely related to the type of work we do with LLVM, but I don't believe the potential candidate will work directly on LLVM (at least that's not the immediate plan).  I apologize if I've somehow misused the mailing list; that was certainly not my intent.  I'll be more careful going forward.

The responsibilities of this position include analyzing workloads to determine bottlenecks, utilize strong knowledge of our micro-architecture to improve performance and work with the open source communities to drive target specific changes into JIT compilers.  The ideal candidate will love to squeeze every bit of performance out of a system and enjoy working with open source communities.
