Subject: Job openings available in HP's development environments labs.


Job Opportunities at Hewlett Packard
Location: Cupertino, CA


HP's C/C++ Development Environment Lab is responsible for the
development and productization of advanced optimizing compilers
and tools for PA-RISC and IA-64 processors and currently we are
looking for a few strong candidates with expertise in C and C++
compilers, optimization or runtime.


You can apply for any of the listed positions by sending your resume
to the address given for the individual projects or centrally
to <courtney_hall@hp.com>


Positions available in the following projects:


IA-64 Code Generation Team: clairej@cup.hp.com


Work with a tightly knit team of highly motivated individuals to design
compilers for the IA-64 EPIC processors. The main focus of this work
will be to extend, tune and productize the code generation component of
HP's IA-64 compilers for initial customer release. Principal responsibilities
include implementation of new language features and compiler options that
impact the IA-64 code generator.


IA-64 Inter-procedural Optimization Team: michelle_ruscetta@hp.com


In this position, the main focus of this work will be inter-procedural
analysis and optimization for C and C++ on IA-64 (EPIC) processors.
Our specific interest is in people with experience and or academic
background in one or more of the following areas: Inter-procedural
optimizations, Scalar and loop transformations, Knowledge of parallelization
and OpenMP, and optimizations for object oriented languages.


IA-64 Instruction Level Compiler Optimization: vatsa_santhanam@hp.com


In this exciting position, you will be responsible for enhancing, testing,
and tuning state-of-the-art optimization techniques in areas such as
instruction scheduling, register allocation, global optimization, memory
hierarchy management, and predicated execution for next-generation IA-64
(EPIC) processors.


C++ front-end Team: sassan@cup.hp.com


If you have a _very good_ understanding of the C++ language and its run time,
and are interested in a compiler development position, we would like to
discuss this opportunity with you. Our mission is to develop and deliver a
truly leading C++ development tool set. Our team is responsible for "correct
and efficient" implementation of the full breadth of the C++ language,
C++-specific optimizations, design and tuning of the C++ runtime and
performance characterization, analysis and tuning of large, real world, C++
applications.


IA-64 Object Code Translation Team: curtw@cup.hp.com


Develop and deliver world-class products with HP's dynamic translation
technology, for transparently executing binary applications on new
architectures and with new ABIs. A strong commitment to fundamental
process improvements and the ability to work closely with members of a
tight-knit team is a must.




All of the above positions require:


* 5+ years experience in design and development of compiler frontend, codegen or
    optimization technology.
* Solid understanding of compiler code generation fundamentals and theory.
* Solid understanding of compiler optimization fundamentals and theory.
* BS, MS or PHD degree in Computer Science.
* Development experience with C++ in a Unix environment.
* Strong communication and teamwork skills.


Desirable Experience for full-time Position:




* Strong understanding of how architecture, compilers and processor
    implementation impact performance.
* Strong background in computer architecture and processor micro-architecture.
* Solid understanding of runtime architectures and operating systems.
* Strong understanding of software development practices and testing
    methodologies
* Experience with using performance analysis tools and techniques.
* Experience in Software Configuration Management, especially ClearCase.
