1. Trace Mansfield, Comp Linguists at International Neural Machines, Inc., Ontario Canada

International Neural Machines, Inc. (Waterloo, Ontario), would like to
refresh its list of candidates who are interested in working on the
production of its Cognitive Imagery Search Engine (tm). We are looking
for people who are fascinated by the systematic encoding of
information patterns in natural and artificial languages. We encourage
applications from linguists, cognitive scientists, and information
scientists, particularly from those among you who display exceptional
skills in such fields as lexicography, discourse analysis, and game
design.

Preferred Skills: 

English fluency is required (native or otherwise), and a strong
candidate will display equally strong critical writing skills. A
*general familiarity* with language systems other than English is
essential, and although multilingual *fluency* is not required for a
position on the team, it will be regarded favorably. Your computer
*literacy* should be, at the very least, broad if not deep, covering a
variety of operating systems, programming languages, and formal
methodologies.

You will need to become proficient in the use of the Microsoft Office
suite of products (e.g. Word, Access, Project, Excel, and
Outlook)*. Any existing familiarity you might have with these programs
will naturally count in your favor.

Finally, your temperament must blend in well with that of the existing team.
(Negativists need not apply.)

It should be noted that we would consider both conventional and alternative
measures of experience.

Applications will be accepted by mail or email, sent to:
