Job Postings in the Pacific Northwest

[SumRunner]

I am often asked by managers and recruiters about candidates for job openings. We need a good location to post these positions- so I'm starting this discussion thread as a starting point. If you have a job opening you'd like to advertise, please post it here as a response to this thread. I'll post the current positions that I'm aware of.

Also, if you are looking for a LabVIEW job, or a LabVIEW programmer, you should also check out the LabVIEW Career Network. This group has a much wider following than the PacNW group, with more resources on jobs, candidates, and searching.

Hello Steve,

I am new to this forum/discussion and generally a newbie on how to post stuff on a discussion forum, etc. Maybe you can help with that and my current project.

First some background. I am a plant molecular biologist at the UW in Seattle. Many, many moons ago I did some computer programming (mostly basic, but a few a attempts at fortran). I have a single programming project in LabView, so really do not plan on using it much. I did go to a three hour short course and in some ways the programming seems not too difficult/intutive, until one really gets into it. I have at least been able to access an analog voltage output to measure a temperature. However, to do the rest will take more time than I would like. So, I would really like to find someone locally that would be willing to do the programming for me (or at least help me do it). Of course, compensation (monetary, amount negotiable) will be provided. I tried to find a UW student that was interested, without success.

Anyway, if this is something you can help me with, let me know and I can provide more details of my LabView programming project.

Thanks,

Delene
