Audio Research Position Available.

I'm looking for an Audio Research Assistant to help support a diverse
range of technical projects that fall outside of the scope of
Tymphany's normal engineering activities. Tymphany (www.tymphany.com)
is a well-funded and high-energy startup developing exciting new
transducer technologies for consumer and professional audio
applications. We are located in Cupertino, CA, in the heart of Silicon
Valley.

The ideal Assistant candidate would be a recent engineering graduate
with a deep understanding of loudspeaker technology, a professional
dedication to audio, and the willingness to learn and work in a high
power environment of engineering and scientific excellence.

If you love speakers, sound and music, and can be a disciplined and
creative problem solver, this could be a dream job, with competitive
salary and a full benefits package. If you are interested, please
email your resume and as much supporting information as you can share.
If appropriate, we will speak by phone, and perhaps arrange a visit to
our facility to meet the team.

Sincerely,

Ken Kantor
CTO

Does that mean that if you have "a deep understanding of
loudspeaker technology, a professional dedication to audio,
and the willingness to learn and work in a high power
environment of engineering and scientific excellence" but
are 59 that you shouldn't bother to apply?

Good deal, Carl. I'm 47 and working on my MSEE. The game is over
when you stop learning.

Please apply, Bob! And, notice there are several other job openings
listed at www.tymphany.com. The particular position I posted about
here just happens to be an opportunity for a newbie who wants to get
into the business, and these are not that common.

If he can convince you that there can be no doppler distortion in a
tube while he has a red hot poker shoved up his arse, give him the
job.

unlike having said poker in said contact. :-)

First I'd like to appologize for being so snarky. Born of
frustration.

Thanks, Ken, I'll give it a look.

Would finding the real solution (with help) to an exact
formulation of speaker "Doppler distortion" help to qualify?
:-)

Announcement soon for those who followed that bizzare squabble.

Only if said Doppler Distortion was measured from the 5th floor window
of a ten storey building, as the speakers flew past.

It's always sad when you have to work with someone who is clearly
educated far beyond his ability to comprehend!

If you want the salary of a 59 year old professional, probably not.
But you never can tell. Ken Kantor is an interesting guy and he might
like what you have to offer and be willing to pay for it.

The salary the average 59 year old engineering professional
receives from his profession is probably not too far above
zero any more. We come pretty cheap these days.

Yeah, I shouldn't have jerked my knee and I will admit to
more than a touch of bitterness on this subject.
