Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Almost contradictory requests
You seem to want people who focus on both machine-level performance stuff and on higher level architecture issues. Most tend to gravitate toward one or the other. Tree-heads often make poor forest-heads and visa versa in my observation.

Regarding "and do a sane cocktail napkin OO design", nobody agrees on what good OO design is. OOD is very inconsistent from (proclaimed) guru-to-guru and person-to-person. You are essentially asking for people who think just like you do, which is a crap-shoot rather than finding the real cream.

New Not true
If you consider these compartmentalized areas, then you are the exact example of the person he does not want!

He wants people who are grounded in theory, by with enough experience to think for themselves. I would have failed the OO portion, but then again, I'm probably not the type of programmer he is looking for. But I may have shown enough thought process to be acceptable, whether or not I had enough OO theory.

Tree people need to be babysat. He does not want them.

Bottom line: He knows want he wants and he know how bad people CAN be, and is trying to avoid them.
