Here's another announcement of a position within UM's Library Information Technology; I'm hiring an experienced programmer/systems engineer for the position below. Please forward! The Core Services unit of LIT concentrates on server infrastructure, systems integration, and automation of workflows and processes to support other units in LIT as well as other areas of the library system. The scope of Core Services work ranges from scripting that is used by small workgroups, to access control systems that are used daily by the University community, to distributed systems that manage the flow of millions of scanned page images per month. LIT Core Services is looking for a talented, resourceful programmer/analyst to help conceive, design, and build complex systems that integrate library systems and processes. Initial projects will include the development of a system to tabulate web usage statistics and further development of an existing system to manage a large access control database. A variety of additional projects will be assigned according to priorities, abilities, and interest. Typical large projects involve automated large-scale processing, database management, web performance and scaling, security, or some combination of these. Projects may or may not be web-based. There will be some need to learn, work with, and maintain or improve existing systems. LIT has an inclination toward open source software and balanced, pragmatic approaches to problems, and works to embrace emerging technology standards and practices of the digital library community.
