The University Library at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is
seeking an Applications Analyst to join the Carolina Digital Repository
development team in the Library Systems department. The Carolina Digital
Repository (CDR) is a digital archive for materials produced by members of the
UNC community. It preserves and provides access to digital scholarly output,
digitized and born-digital special collections, and university records of
enduring value. The CDR uses open-source Fedora Commons repository software
and iRODS data grid software for storage management. The work of the Digital
Repository Analyst is highly collaborative in nature, requiring coordination
with a team of developers, systems administrators, archivists, and external
stakeholders. The Digital Repository Analyst develops tools supporting ingest,
management, preservation, and delivery of digital content. The Analyst
participates in the full-life cycle of application development, from design
through implementation, testing, user acceptance, maintenance, and end-user
support. The Analyst documents code and manages development within a
versioning system. The Analyst evaluates new and emerging technologies for use
in the CDR. From time to time the Analyst might also work on projects not
directly related to the repository.
