Yes, if you're not American it'd be hard to get in to companies like National Instruments or Texas Instruments. But I know AutoDesk have development offices around the world... I think they have development in Singapore, but not so sure about Australia.
Good luck.

Just want to add... there're a lot of cool things that lie in the intersection between mechanical engineering and software development. Most of the exciting development will lie in the "algorithm" and "research" part of the project cycle. For instance, we've had CAD/CAM, FEA (Finite Element Analysis) , CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) system around for a long time. But things are moving ahead. It's not a stagnant field. Example: Interaction with deformable 3D solid models in REALTIME with Data Gloves (Still in R&D phase last time I read about it in publication from UBC two years ago). How about reconstruction of 3D models from digital photos? This is possible by extending current image segmentation techonologies (edge detection, object recognition) and lotsa old school matrix algebra. But, it's already in mass production phase - Last time I saw in trade show a couple of years back. German manufacturer I think - they have cutting edge engineers - people who make their country proud.
These are the stuff that the majority of us aren't doing. These are closed source advantage. These are the stuff that hasn't been devalued by Chinese/Indian competition, yet. But there're a lot of potential in these area - probably much more than trying to optimize area like processor scheduling. Web Dev is dead. Not that the technology is dead, quite the opposite indeed. But if you're looking at decreasing profit margin. On the other hand, things like network optimization seems to be much easier problems... easier to tackle, and faster to see real result (well, faster to see the end of the improvement too). I worked on a project with N??tel before. They were considering integrating financial metrics into their network management systems. That's perfectly doable - but it's easy to get duplicated at the same time.
Enough babbling, time for me get back to work. Don't forget to let me know if you run into anything profitable and requires my assistance

It’s for the upgrade development of our cad cam software, the location could be any where and the salary will be based on C++, CAD-CAM, and Tool path programming skills. This would be a full time job. We currently have two full time programmers and want to expand.

IMHO you in the wrong forum...
If only I knew calc & geom I may have responded differently...

Sorry if I put this in the wrong forum, any suggestion on where this thread should be?
Thanks Jared

http://www.codeproject.com/script/comments/forums.asp?forumid=3304#xxxx[^] would be a start.
www.programmersheaven.com[^] also has a forum where you can offer jobs to freelancers.
Codeproject is quite unique in this way. I advertise PHP/MySQL web application and C++/MFC desktop application development at various web sites (including programmersheaven) but would not suggest doing it here unless your in the right forum. CP has a very faithful user base and you will get flak if you try and advertise for free or do not post in the right forum.
Anyways, CP is the right place to start (you'll find some of the best programmers on the planet here IHMO) just make sure you use the forum I linked to above.

Ermm... I may be going blind in my old age, but I'm sure that this thread is in the forum you suggested.

We are a CAD-CAM software company and have been around for about 20 years we currently have two programmers and want to expand. If you feel that you meet the requirements send me an email and I would be glad to discuss this with you. jwpexe@netscape.net

If you are a company, why do you have a netscape.net address?
If you cannot afford a web site, how can you afford to pay us?
Yahoo offers web sites for $15/month.

OK, all I am tiring to do is find one or two good programmers, we currently need help with the advancement of our software. I was using a Netscape account because I was tiring to do this discretely. So if you really want to know I am the CTO for BobCAD-CAM www.bobcad.com and if you would like to talk to me about this just call 877.262.2231 x16.
Thank you,
Jared

Suspicious lot, aren't we?
I just went through the Lathe Lesson - very impressive product, Jared! It's a shame that I'm only just beginning to get the hang of C++, as I really like geometry and calc. Good luck with the search!

Askia[^] is a dynamic producer of software for market research and we're going places.
The work is sometimes stressful but our passion for what we do is really
paying off. We love programming and, of course, you do too, don't you?
Is your idea of a good read a big book about code? Although we're looking for a wizard, we're not looking for an anorak.
There are a handful of us in a small office in the West End and more of us
in France and the States. Our clients are all over the world. Because
there aren't many of us, we'd like it if you're good at working alone and
managing your own time. We're flexible though - and you can structure your
day to suit your own working style. Just do a great job and we'll be really
happy.
As for the nitty gritty, needless to say your C++ and MFC is top notch.
Experience of .NET and an informed interest in market research would really
get us excited. The icing on the cake would be some ability to speak
French, even if you need a bit of practice, but don't worry.
So if you'd like your employer to have as much 'get up and go' as you do,
get in touch by sending an email at n i c k @ a s k i a.com . Our story is just starting and you can be one of the main characters.

Two phrases come to mind:
(1) You get what you pay for (In other words, if you don't pay much you won't get much)
(2) Buy cheap, buy dear (I've only heard my grandmother use this, essentially it means if you pay a cheap price for a product or service you will end up paying for it all over again when you realise the quality is not good and have to replace the item or re-do the work)
