This is what the entire post read:

Bethesda Game Studios is looking for experienced programmers to work on cutting-edge technology for an unannounced game on future-generation consoles.

The Job requirements:

At least 5 years of game development experience with multiple titles shipped

Bethesda might already have access to the next-gen dev kits, it will be interesting to see how this one pans out.

Earlier we reported that, Todd Howard expected the next-gen consoles [PS4/720] to be released in 2014. The Wii U will be out this year, though.

“I think it’s going to be a while still, I really do. I think consumers are happy with the current ones, there’s a lot you can do with them,” he said. “So I don’t think it’s coming next year or the year after.”
