A Job on a Team I know Very Well

This post will be elaborated ASAP, but I'm excited to start describing a job on the team I manage:

https://opportunities.columbia.edu/en-us/job/506308/developer-for-digital-research-and-scholarship

The principal portfolio is in tooling to support DH projects; the predecessor, Marii Nyröp, is the developer behind the Wax static site generator: https://minicomp.github.io/wax/

It's a junior position with the most forgiving experience prerequisites we could manage, but I like to think our team has a track record of mentorship and professional development.

The incumbent would join a team with a lot of experience and an appetite for learning and improving.  We're in the midst of our first big push towards React/GraphQL over Rails and Solr. We use (and have imminent plans to elaborate our implementation of) IIIF.  There's a Software Carpentries program with certification opportunities. More soon!
