Software Developers
National Library of Wales
Aberystwyth
We are looking to employ developers with good engineering skills
(predominantly Java, PHP) and
experience in RESTful web services and XML data manipulation (including XSLT
and XPath).
We're a Red Hat shop so Linux/UNIX fluency is useful but as long as you know
your way around
the shell, filesystem, SVN, Ant, etc, we can teach you the rest as required.
You'll be working with
workflows and tools designed to manage the path of a physical asset like a
book or photograph,
through the processes of shelf retrieval, scanning, shelf return, derivative
generation from master
scan, creation of technical and administrative metadata to accompany the
master and derivative files
and subsequent ingest of all generated files into our Digital Asset management
System (Fedora
Commons). We currently use ApacheMQ and Apache Camel to integrate workflow
components but
we're always on the lookout for tools and technologies, which may enhance our
productivity and
efficiency.
From ancient manuscripts to born-digital broadcast television archives, framed
works of art to large
photographic collections, The Library is responsible for preserving original
materials as well as
providing access both digitally and physically to our many and varied
collections. These posts work
directly with the projects which enable this preservation and
access.
