This is surely about VME industrial bus, not about VAX processors or computers.

The only mention of VAX/VME from the job post:

> Experience with troubleshooting equipment such as Pass1000/5000 1553 bus monitor, fiber-optic test equipment, digital storage oscilloscopes, and familiarization with the VAX/VME based computing environment.

Seems apparent to me that the context is development+ATE environment; VME is likely VXI interface to ATE instrumentation. In any case, the VMS and/or VME angle to this job post is the least of any prospect's concerns.

I wondered if that was a typo and they meant VAX/VMS (DEC's OS that ran on the Vax)
