From: Andrew Richards <andrew@codeplay.com>
Subject: position available at Codeplay, Scotland


Codeplay is looking for smart, self-motivated compiler developers to
produce compilation technology for a new generation of media
processors. You'll need to have education and experience in compiler
development. We're looking for people to work on code generation,
instruction scheduling, pipelining, performance testing and
multi-processor optimization.


We're working on bringing our existing C/C++ vectorizing SIMD compiler
technology to new platforms and adding support for the next generation
of asymmetric multi-processing machines.


Location: Codeplay is based in Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. All development
work is based in Edinburgh, so applicants will need to be in Edinburgh
or prepared to move, and have UK or EU citizenship or a work permit. For
well qualified candidates we can arrange work permits.

Senior Compiler Engineer, Philips Research, Eindhoven the Netherlands


Philips Research is part of Philips Electronics N.V. Besides the main
laboratory in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, there are also laboratories
of Philips Research in Germany, France, England, Belgium, China, India
and the United States (collectively some 2100 people). Our scientists
work in a wide range of disciplines, from information technology,
software, multimedia and digital signal processing to physics and
chemistry; from mathematics to mechanics. We provide a challenging and
stimulating environment, where our scientists generate options for new
and improved products and processes by realizing concepts or making
prototypes, in close cooperation with the Philips Product
Divisions. About 1% of Philips' sales is spent on these corporate
research activities. Our activities have led to the milestone of
100,000 patents, and the publishing of many thousands of technical and
scientific papers.


Philips Electronic Design & Tools (ED&T) is a customer driven business
unit that supplies innovative tools for Electronic Design Automation
(EDA) and services for Design and Test to Philips Electronic
designers. ED&T is part of the Philips Research organisation in
Eindhoven.


The ED&T/Synthesis group mainly works on CAD for heterogynous systems
containing embedded processors and special acceleration units. As a
part of that activity we develop and maintain the compiler tool chain
for the Philips VLIW TriMedia embedded processor. This tool chain
consists out of an optimising compiler, a debugger and a simulator.
The main tasks of this team are: =B7 Support the current tool chain,
by solving problem reports and adapt the toolset to changes in the
target processor =B7 Innovate and extend the current tool chain by
implementing new algorithms and tools


Education: Phd, M.Sc or B.Sc. in information technology. Some
knowledge of electronics engineering is positive. At least 5 years
experience in standards, C/ C++ programming, language/semantics
issues, run-time issues such as RTTI, exceptions handling, stabs for
C++, C++ parsing, expression evaluation, scoping and exception
handling in debuggers are required. Next to these skills excellent
communication skills, fluency in English, accuracy, flexibility and
customer friendliness are required.
