Open Data Specialist

Description

Apologies for the cross-postings.

We're searching high and low for an exceptional candidate for the Open Data Specialist job here at the Chattanooga Public Library. As a partner in a Knight Foundation Community Information grant, we're raising and supporting an open data portal hosted by the public library. Now, instead of finding government (and other) data in useless, clumsy volumes of print, the community will be able to build interactions and applications that actually use the library as a platform. We'll start with the typical civic data Code for America type stuff, but we hope to expand the portal to include other types of datasets to support citizen science projects and more.
