The Microsoft Jim Gray Systems Lab (GSL) in Madison, Wisconsin has several positions open at the Ph.D. or M.S. levels for exceptionally well-qualified individuals with significant experience in the design and implementation of database management systems. Organizationally, GSL is part of the Microsoft SQL Server Division. Located on the edge of the UW-Madison campus, the GSL staff collaborates closely with the faculty and graduate students of the database group at the University of Wisconsin. We currently have several on-going projects in the areas of parallel database systems, advanced storage technologies for database systems, energy-aware database systems, and the design and implementation of database systems for multicore CPUs. If your passion is building systems that push the state of the art and you have experience doing so, please apply by sending a copy of your resume to Jenna Volpone (jennav@microsoft.com). If your long-term goal is to obtain a faculty position and would like to be considered for a 1-2 year post-doc position, that is an option that we are willing to also consider when evaluating applications. If you have questions about the positions or the lab please send mail to dewitt@microsoft.com Questions can also be directed to Jeff Naughton (naughton@cs.wisc.edu).
