Ruby on Rails developer

Description

Hello!  My team is seeking a Boston-area Ruby on Rails developer for a library application that involves author name/identity data harvested from author-to-publisher interactions. 

• You’d be picking up a half-developed application whose code can be found here: https://github.com/berkmancenter/author_names
• This is intended to be a short-term project over the next few months and we’re hoping you’re local so we can have some productive initial face-to-face meetings
• Links to early documentation and an introductory video are here (more up-to-date documentation is in progress and will be posted shortly): https://osc.hul.harvard.edu/liblab/projects/author-names-project

While the application has a robust structure and is capturing the data we need, we’d like to focus on some of the user-facing components.  We’re also looking to integrate both ORCID and ISNI API calls into the application.

Please forward this message along to any programmers you might know, especially if they have worked with libraries in the past.  If you’re local and are interested in what we are up to, we’d love to talk.  Contact our team at oaq@fas.harvard.edu.
