[plug] Software Engineer Job (Linux / FLOSS tools)

[Andrew Cooks]

Hi PLUGgers!

I saw this job advert today and would like to know if anyone on the
list has any more information about the company.

==========snip-snip===============
I am seeking a software engineer to join a small R&D department based in Perth.

If successfull, the software engineer will participate in the
development of a variety of graphical applications to assist the
business in the creation of visual graphics converted from raw
research data.

Applicants with experience or knowledge of the following are preferred:

Linux
Gnome
GNU tools
GTK / Qt
D-Bus
Shell Scripting.
Subversion, git
C, C++, Fortran.

See http://www.seek.com.au/Job/software-engineer/in/perth-perth/22068014

Why are these kinds of jobs so damn scarce here in Perth?

Posted to the main list, since nothing's happening on the jobs list.

Cheers!

Andrew
