| If you have a passion for engineering and operating systems internals, if you thrive on solving challenging and highly diverse problems, and if you enjoy interacting with members of the world-wide Windows system software community, you might be a good fit for the OSR team. We’re looking for one or two outstanding engineers to join our team, which is located in Amherst, New Hampshire, USA. At OSR we’re a consulting group specializing in system software design and development for Windows – Device drivers, file systems, and operating system extensions. We’re also keenly interested and involved in other technology areas including security, forensic analysis, virtualization, mobile devices, and even non-Windows operating systems. Our clients are located all over the world, and range from small cutting-edge technology startups to large multi-national OEMs. We’re looking for folks to write and debug Windows drivers and file systems and work with clients as members of a small team to solve complex technical problems often under difficult or changing constraints. Depending on your level of experience and expertise you might also contribute to solution architectures, author design documents, perform code reviews, perform crash dump and problem analysis (for in-house and client problems), write kernel-mode code for other operating systems, teach some of the seminars we offer throughout the world, and/or write technical papers or articles. We’re willing to consider engineers with a wide range of experience: From engineers just finishing their studies, to those who have as much as 5 years of dedicated system software development experience. Even though Windows kernel-mode architecture, design, and programming are what we do most here at OSR, how much you know about Windows internals or how much experience you have writing Windows drivers isn’t particularly important to us. We’re experts at teaching people about Windows OS architecture, internals, and driver development. So bringing a new team-member up to speed won’t be a problem. Want to know what is important to us? What we’re looking for are engineers who: Love operating systems internals and/or devices Have strong engineering and problem solving skills Want the challenge of working on, very literally, the most difficult system software challenges in the industry Demonstrate exceptional written and verbal communications skills in standard English Responsibly commit to software delivery dates and consistently deliver on those commitments (within their level of expertise) Understand the need to search for the root of a problem and not just solutions to a problem’s symptoms Demonstrate the tenacity to stick-with a problem until an appropriate solution is identified Enjoy interacting with other engineers and sharing what they know, and learning where and when they can Happily work among various cultures (worldwide) and with engineers of various levels of experience and expertise. While certainly not required, the ability to communicate technical information in another language, especially Mandarin or Hindi, would be greatly appreciated. We know that this set of attributes doesn’t fit a lot of people. If you think the above sounds a lot like you, we’d love the chance to meet and talk! We think you’ll have fun here. People tell us the pay and benefits at OSR are the best in the industry. People who work here tell us they enjoy the small company, team-oriented, atmosphere in which they have a chance to “make a difference” and a direct contribution to the success of our company and our clients. The details: You must work at our location in Amherst, NH, USA (approximately 1hr from Boston, MA). We’re sorry, but we cannot sponsor H1B’s directly at this time. We will consider H1B transfers or students on “F” visas who are eligible for 1 year of OPT (during which time we could start H1B processing) for the right candidate. TN visas (engineers from NAFTA countries) are not a problem. Interested? Send us your resume. But don't stop there! Tell us about yourself. Tell us what interests you. Tell us what we can't learn from just reading your resume so that we can better grasp your fit for the position, and OSR. |
