My company is hiring, mostly engineers but other positions too. We design programmable chips, located in San Jose. Check out our job opportunities and let me know if something interests you: http://www.altera.com/corporate/jobs/job_search.jsp?location=United%20States. I'll see what I can do to help you out.
