To Whom It May Concern:
It is good to see the recent posts about LabVIEW jobs, and we have a Co-
Op position available using LabVIEW. I recently posted a similar message
to the info-LabVIEW mailing list, and someone there recommended I also
post to comp.lang.labview.
Along those lines, we have a Co-Op position available that involves a
substantial amount of LabVIEW programming. We are looking for a EE or
computer engineering student (we aren't locked into those majors, but
they are typical of previous students), to begin work in the term
starting in January 2001.
About the Co-Op position:
This is a cooperative education position, where students typically
alternate terms of school with terms of work experience, usually for
three terms of each. Sometimes students co-op for less than three terms,
but we prefer to have someone who can commit to three terms. Thus they
get a four year degree in five years, including one year (total) of work
experience.
In my previous post to the info-LabVIEW list I received a great deal of
interest from international students, but our co-op program is such that
we are only considering students who already reside in the USA. Also, if
non-resident, you must be approved for work for a year or less in the
USA.
About the work:
Mostly LabVIEW programming, 50%-75% of the time, on custom software used
to control our in-house measurement systems. This is on Macs and PC's,
and involves GPIB and DAQ programming. The remaining time will be spent
on number crunching/data analysis.
About the company:
Corning Cable Systems (formerly Siecor) is a subsidiary of Corning, Inc.,
and is a major manufacturer of fiber optical cable. The Co-Op position is
in the Research, Development, and Engineering division, located in
Hickory, NC. Hickory is in central NC, about one hour north of Charlotte
and one and one- half hours east of Asheville. Hickory is also the home
of our corporate headquarters and two of our manufacturing plants. We
also have manufacturing plants in Texas, Canada, Mexico, PR, and in
Europe.
RD&E develops new cable designs to meet customer requirements, and tests
these cables under various physical and environmental conditions to see
that they meet or exceed industry standards before putting these designs
into production. The majority of our RD&E test and control software is
written in-house using LabVIEW.
