SKILLS REQUIRED -
Opportunities exist in both
1) Compiler team
Experience of compiler development or a knowledge of compiler internals would be highly advantageous.
Of particular interest is a knowledge of optimisation techniques, code generation for RISC processors, and Just-In-Time compilers. At the very least, a desire to learn about these things is essential!

2) Core-VM team
Experience of embedded systems and real-time operating systems is desirable, especially an understanding of issues of threads, exception handling, memory management, resource management, determinism and predictability. Familiarity with the internals of any operating system is useful. Experience of implementing an operating system would be valuable.

PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES -
Very strong C is essential - They do all their development in C with some assembly language. They also use some PERL to write tools for internal use.

MICROPROCESSORS -
Familiarity with x86 or any RISC or embedded processors is useful, e.g. ARM, MIPS, PowerPC, or Hitachi SH.

JAVA -
There is no Java development. If you have spent a lot of time writing in Java this may not suit you, although a familiarity with Java will help.
However, if you know how Java is implemented - Java virtual machines, Java bytecode, just-in-time compilers, garbage collection – this is of interest.

OPERATING SYSTEMS -
They develop on both Windows and Linux. Their products run on a variety of OSes including Windows CE and real-time operating systems such as VxWorks and ITRON.

OTHER -
A working knowledge of the GNU tools would be an advantage. Any team leading skills would be of interest.
