Digital Library Services Developer | DLF Job Board

"As part of our expanding work in the fields of digital humanities, digital libraries, data management, data visualization, and integrated digital repository services we are looking for a creative developer who enjoys working on challenging projects in a highly collaborative environment.

Does this sound like you? Are you a confident, fast learner who is equally comfortable with collaborative development, thoughtful experimentation, and critical system support?

If so, you might want to be our new Digital Library Services Developer.

As a member of the Northeastern University Libraries' development team, you will have opportunities to participate in grant-funded research, collaborate on cutting-edge digital scholarship projects, and lead the development of new tools and services. You will get to contribute to the development and customization of key library systems, including our Samvera-based digital repository architecture, a digital humanities workflow system, integrated data management, preservation, analysis, and visualization systems, and real-time connections between the Library's management system (Alma) and its Drupal-based website. And, of course, whatever comes next!

As a Digital Library Services Developer, you will design, program, and/or adapt existing web tools to augment and enhance the Library's various web-based system, and will develop customized and project-specific solutions in JavaScript, PHP/Perl, CSS and other related web technologies. You will enjoy collaborations with library colleagues, as well as colleagues in ITS and across campus, and with partners in multi-institutional projects. You will be able to design and monitor projects for student development teams and engage in the ongoing evaluation of emerging academic and library technologies."
