Since I've had success doing this in the past, I'm going to
once again invoke my "social network" in trying to fill a few
positions I've opened up at VMware.

I'm starting a new group that builds tools which are meant
for internal use (at least initially).  At Sun, I did a
similar project working with another person to design a
system for analyzing how faults propagate through a system.
We used ideas from all areas, from graph theory to compiler
construction and produced something that eventually became
part of Solaris.

At VMware, I'm now trying to do the same thing: apply cross-
functional ideas to some of the more interesting and sticky
problems we have.  We'll be tackling all sorts of areas, from
interface version tracking to lock ordering analysis to anything
else I can get some traction on.

So I'm looking for a few people who are excellent programmers,
who emit fine, maintainable C code, Perl code, JavaScript, who
knows what else.  I want the type of person who has learned a
few of the latest new languages because of personal interest, not
because anyone asked for it at work.  Yes, I want nerds.

There's a point in a programmer's career when you become senior
enough to start leading people.  Then, a few years after that,
you become even more senior and realize that sometimes you have
a better impact being a follower and influencing projects rather
than always trying to be one of the leaders.  That's the type
I'm looking for.  That said, I would consider new-grads as well
as well-seasoned people, as long as they are excellent coders,
fun to work with, and seem to have lots of cross-functional
interests.

I want to hire these people in the Colorado office.

If any of this causes you to think of someone you know who may be
interested, please let me know, or better yet, ask that person to
send a resume to rudoff at vmware.com.

The "bounty" for contributing moosen is, of course, a free breakfast!
