Do you have any software engineering reports?

On this board there are at least four or five advanced software 
engineers moderating the Usenet system based on Linux coding along with 
Basic.

As for me, I'm specialized in the Structured Query Language (SQL) on the 
Cray and later on the Dell Power Edge running Windows Server.

FYI: The core Oracle Database engine is primarily written in C and C++.

Thanks for responding!

PS: As an alternative in future you might consider working at HP Inc. 
which is headquartered in Palo Alto, California. The main corporate 
office is located at 1501 Page Mill Road, right in the heart of Silicon 
Valley where the original company was founded in a garage in 1939. They 
make printers.
