From: Sahar El-Husseini Subject: JOB-OFFERED Date: Fri, 22 Nov 1996 17:26:12 GMT Message-ID: The following vacancy is readvertised (original posting was in September) due to a lack of suitable applicants. Please note change in e-mail address (the old name, J.R.S.Eyre@soton.ac.uk is no longer valid). VACANCY VR_Systems U.K. is a small but expanding company, specialising in the field of human-computer iinterface technology. Having recently won a DTI SMART award for the development of an innovative Virtual Reality display system, it is now looking for an Electronic Engineer to join the team. The successful candidate will contribute substantially to the progress of the project and will be expected to lead the way in solving the many problems that are likely to arise. An ability to input progressive research, design, and development ideas, and to implement those ideas effectively is a definite requirement for this post. Other personal attributes required are good communication skills, an analytical approach, self reliance, a desire for "hands-on" work and problem solving, and a pleasant character. Applicants should have at least a second class first degree in Electronic Engineering, with a good background knowledge of Physics, particularly optics. For this reason, the post would ideally suit a candidate with a Masters in Electronic Engineering, and a Batchelors degree in Physics, although this is not essential. Experience in the following areas would also be of considerable advantage to the candidate: embedded microprocessor system design; software programming in 'C' and assembler; signal processing, including analogue-to-digital conversion and Kalman filtering techniques; and motion tracking sensor technology. The starting salary will be 15,000 Pounds Sterling pa minimum, depending upon experience, with review after 12 months. The starting date is ASAP, with an official closing date for applications on the 29th November 1996 (although submissions after that date may be considered). To take advantage of this opportunity to advance with a fast growing company, with the associated potential rewards, please send a covering letter plus CV to Julian Eyre at the address below. (Applications sent by normal mail are preferred, but if absolutely necessary e-mail or faxed applications are acceptable). VR_Systems U.K. is currently moving to a business centre in a pleasant rural location near the busy market town of Romsey in Hampshire (approximately 10 miles from the City of Southampton). The company operates a no-smoking policy. ADDRESS FOR APPLICATIONS VR_Systems U.K. 17 Bracken Close North Baddesley Southampton Hants SO52 9DL U.K. Fax: +44 (0)1703 740298 e-mail: sneh@soton.ac.uk
