WG9 is looking for an editor who could help produce a new version
of TR 15942, which is a Guide for the use of Ada in High Integrity
Systems. The editor should have been involved in the safety-critical
processes that the TR covers (see below and ISO/IEC TR 15942 [1])
and be able to identify the mapping between the various standards
requirements and Ada features; the wider the roles they have played
the better.
As a bare minimum:
* Being an accomplished current Ada programmer.
* Having as much experience as possible in some high-integrity
domain.
Ideally:
* Deep knowledge of modern Ada, familiarity with new features in Ada
2022, as much hands-on practice as possible, a current developer.
* Experience with certification processes under standards such as
DO-178C, IEC 61508, EN 50128, other recent standards that may
be relevant.
* Experience with embedded development and Ada profiles (Ravenscar,
Jorvik) and restriction pragmas.
* Familiarity with at least a couple of Ada compilers to
differentiate compiler-specific issues from language issues in
the build process.
* Understanding/experience with run-time resource usage and
measurements (WCET, stack usage, memory leaks, ...).
* Previous involvement with ISO standards and documents,
writing/using standards or, at least, technical documents.
The current version is based on Ada 95, so some significant updates
may be required. The PDF for the current document can be acquired at
ISO/IEC TR 15942 [1] for free.
If this interests you, please send email to my last name at
adacore.com. If you have questions or comments, feel free to post
them here.
