For the first time in a long time, IBM has a bunch of external job openings at the RTP site, both in hardware and software development (and FPGA, quality assurance, etc...). See the link below, search for USA openings, then find those in "Systems and Technology Group" in Research Triangle Park.
See This LinkIf you're in the market and one of these STG openings looks to be a good fit for your skill set, let me know as they've opened an internal referral program which
may help fastpath the process. Outside of the STG listings, I can't be much help, sorry.
