Hello everyone,

Thanks again for the opportunity give a presentation on Saturday in such 
a short notice!

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
