The Royal Library, Copenhagen, is looking for an employee to join our development team of 8 developers. The Royal Library doubles as the National Library of Denmark and as Copenhagen University Library, serving simultaneously as a major cultural institution, public research library and library service provider for the Copenhagen University community. The development team resides in the Department of Digital Development and Dissemination and works with all aspects of software development that support the digital library. The position is permanent, full time and to be filled as soon as possible. **Primary tasks:** As part of the team you'll be expected to participate in a variety of projects, but your main focus will be on the library system complex comprising a vast integrated library system, a separate discovery and delivery system, a user base, a link resolver and proxy server management. The team you'll join conducts software development in the broadest sense - from identfying specification requirements, designing system architecture and modeling for programming, to testing and documentation. Requirement specifications and system architecture are taks done in collaboration with others, but we work independently in the implementation phase, which means your personal responsibility for the quality of what we develop is required. **Required professional qualifications:** • Graduate degree in engineering, computer science or similar. • Knowledge of library systems (Alpeh, Primo, SFX) • Experience with agile development processes. • Experience with Perl and Java • Knowledge of. NET and SQL databases. • Knowledge of best practices for the world wide web, linked data, and preferably experience with REST-based web services. **Expected personal qualities:** You work well with colleagues across the academic spectrum. You can stay focused and sustain a holistic approach. You can alternate between working independently, being responsive, and work as a team player to help "lift" your team. We offer an exciting interdisciplinary work on the top floor of the Black Diamond on the central Copenhagen harbour. This is an environment where cultural heritage meets modern media and scholarly knowledge meets computer science. Our working philosophy is that going to work should be fun. We offer an inspiring environment with exciting projects, ongoing skills development, agile development processes and good colleagues. **Wages and employment** The position is covered by the current agreement between the Ministry of Finance and the collective bargaining organization pertaining to your background. Additional salary based on your qualifications may apply. As a prerequisite for an appointment, any criminal record will be obtained and reviewed by the library. **Application** You apply electronically by clicking the "Search position" at the very bottom of the advertisement in The Royal Library's website at http://www.kb.dk/da/kb/jobs/.
