On the Job Hunt

As of last week I found out that my engineering group is being dissolved early next year. Apparently Quantum is redirecting its engineering resources from our product to a product developed out of California. The layoff is a little frustrating as our product is the bread and butter of the company. I guess I designed myself out of a job. But, in all honesty the company does need to refocus as the tape backup market shrinks and the disk market grows. While painful for me, it probably is the right thing in the interest of sustaining the company as a whole.

Now, however, I am on the hunt for a new job. I have a broad background in Electrical Engineering as well as a bit of experience doing web development. I am a true generalist and I feel confident I can pick up any fundamental engineering task and learn the process to success quickly. If any of you, my loyal readers, know of any good companies in the Seattle Area I would really appreciate company recommendations in the comments area. I have also attached my resume for anyone who may come upon this site looking for a good electrical engineer (BSEE) in the Seattle, WA area.

The good news is I am excited for change. I look forward to learning new things and meeting new people. Life always offers so many great chances to grow and expand my horizons. Quoting a sign I once saw "If we don't find something new, at least we will find something interesting". This always does seem to be the case.
