			   Job Opportunity
				   
		     Associate Research Scientist
			   Yale University
		    Department of Computer Science
				   

There's a very good chance (almost certain, actually) that I will be
hiring an Associate Research Scientist into my research group.  This
position is a "non-teaching faculty appointment" that is more-or-less
equivalent to an Assistant Professorship, but carries no teaching
responsibility.

I'm looking for someone that's interested in things like functional
programming, Haskell, type theory, formal semantics, partial evaluation, 
program transformation, etc., and that also believes in implementing
his/her ideas.  The position would begin in the Fall of '92 and is
intended to exist as long as the funding continues (legally Yale
prohibits me from making offers of this sort for more than 1 year).
The pay-scale is $34,000 -- $59,000 depending on the applicant's
qualifications and experience; the minimum requirement is a PhD in
Computer Science.

If you are interested, please send me a resume (on-line preferred)
along with a list of references.  I hope to make a decision within
about a 6-week time-frame.

For those not familiar with functional programming research at Yale,
below is a list of faculty and graduate students, along with their
research interests.

Best regards,
