Subject: Job opportunity with a handheld developer - Mioteq

Hello everyone,

After positive response from SurreyLUG members list I was advised to get this
advert sent to HantsLUG's list as well:

To summarize the opportunity:

Mioteq Ltd. is a VC-funded start-up company based in Surrey Research Park,
Guildford. We are developing a handheld device (as seen on Saturday!) for
_mobile broadband_ networks. Not 3G, not wifi, but truly mobile, truly
broadband, ubiquitous, all-IP, low latency etc. You can find more information
about these technologies by googling Flash-OFDM, TD-CDMA or Mobile Wimax
802.16e. First commercial networks are already up and running and in 10 years
time there will be coverage just about everywhere. Our product is a handheld
device, running Linux on ARM9 processor. Applications include VoIP-client
(SIP), web browser, IM, email, media player. etc. with a unique patent-pending
touchpad-based UI. Many of the applications are built using open source
components.

We are looking for passionate open source/Linux enthusiast to work in a very
broad role covering all SW-related issues for the company. It is envisaged
that the job description will evolve greatly over time, but initially the
areas of responsibility include the following:

1. To manage/collaborate with our contracted software development partner
overseas and ensure the company's requirements are met (including project
management, quality assurance etc.). 2. To manage/collaborate with 3rd party
applicaton developers in both technical and commercial issues. 3. Start
the work towards publishing the platform to OS developers by specifying the
effort required to make it happen... It will include at least developing SDK,
creating a website to publish it and ongoing management/administration of all
and any OS developing activities etc. etc. as mentioned, first thing is to
specify what needs to be done!

There are no handheld devices supporting these mobile broadband technologies
on the market yet so this is an opportunity to join a growing, truly
pioneering company. The role will initially be contract based with a view to
become permanent.

If you are interested, then please send us your CV detailing your skills and
experience relevant to the role and a covering letter.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information and please spread the
word if you think someone you know might be interested.

Thanks,

Best Regards, Ilkka Martikainen Managing Director
