Digital Library Applications Programmer

Description

Hi,

We have a “Digital Library Applications Programmer” position opening at the University of Pennsylvania Library. To be a bit more specific than the official announcement:

* We have built a Solr-based system (the “DLA”) that we use to deliver various digital collections and catalogs. For instance our video catalog: http://dla.library.upenn.edu/dla/vcat Image collections: http://dla.library.upenn.edu/dla/furness Or book/manuscript facsimiles: http://dla.library.upenn.edu/dla/medren

* While continuing to develop the DLA, we are now turning our attention to strengthening our underlying repository of digital objects and its connections to the DLA. In that realm, we are particularly interested in the CDL Pairtree/Merritt micro-services approach. The person hired will be the main programmer for that part of the project, so he/she will have a real opportunity to help shape the project design and influence our architecture.

This is a one-year position with the possibility of extension.

Please apply through the Penn HR web site: http://www.hr.upenn.edu/Jobs/ The reference number for this position is 100328159.

Thanks, Delphine Khanna
