The Harvard University Library is recruiting a Digital Library Software Engineer (one-year term appointment with possibility of renewal).
Here's an excerpt from the ad:
Harvard University's Library (HUL) seeks a programmer/analyst for development of a digital scholarship repository. This is a unique opportunity to serve as the technical lead on a project to collect and share the university's research with the world. Reporting to the Manager of Systems Development in HUL's Office for Information Systems and the Program Manager of HUL's Office for Scholarly Communication, position responsibilities include development of web applications, tools, interfaces, and databases. S/he will assume ongoing configuration, customization, and integration of our open-source DSpace repository, with the aim of rapidly deploying production code for user-friendly deposit, management, and reporting processes. The position requires the ability to multi-task and to help grasp requirements from discussions with stakeholders, recommend solutions, and translate these into specifications, prototypes, and production code with accompanying documentation. The ideal candidate will work efficiently, creatively, and independently as requirements evolve, and also enjoy collaborative problem solving (locally as well as more broadly, in regular communication with other repository developers).
