Dear Osmocom community,

I would like to point out that at sysmocom, we're currently (again) hiring [1]. If you happen to have an interest in open source cellular communications and are fluent in C language development, we would love to hear from you.

sysmocom probably doesn't need any introduction here, but just in case: The company was founded by Holger Freyther and Harald Welte, two of the leading OpenBSC and Osmocom developers from the very early days of the project. Today we are responsible for by far the largest number of commits to the Osmocom GSM/3G infrastructure related git repositories.

Among our current priorities are automatic testing for the GPRS PCU, generalization of the OsmoMGW media gateway, support for load-based hand-over, inter-BSC hand-over as well as various improvements on the lower layers of the GPRS protocol stack.

We're very dedicated to the cause in furthering the capabilities of open source cellular infrastructure from 2G to 4G. We believe in working upstream, no open core or dual licensing.

If you have an interest working with an enthusiastic, strong technical and dedicated team of Osmocom hackers, please don't hesitate to let me know, best by e-mail to jobs@sysmocom.de

Thanks, Harald

p.s.: I hope this kind of message is not disturbing to anyone. I think it is important to the Osmocom project to have more paid people working on the stack, so it is justified. The positions we are seeking to fill will work [almost exclusively] on Osmocom, so it's not a random job ad but in the very interest of Osmocom, and hence on-topic for this list.
