Cambridge (MA) Jobs - June 2023

Harvard Library Innovation Lab | Multiple roles | Full time | Cambridge, MA (hybrid schedule, REMOTE possible)

The Harvard Library Innovation Lab explores the future of libraries by building tools and communities for open knowledge. We build long term services like https://perma.cc, https://opencasebook.org, and https://case.law, and we host fellows like Molly White, creator of Web3 is Going Just Great. We are a creative, experimental place to build open source code that makes a difference.

We are hiring for two open roles in software engineering, one with a frontend focus and one with a backend / data engineering focus.

Currently, only the frontend position is in Harvard's ATS, but we expect the backend one will list next week. You can apply for the frontend one here: [REDACTED]

I am the hiring manager. Please feel free to reach out to me directly with any questions at mdellabitta@law.harvard.edu. Thanks!

EDIT: looks like HR took the post down to edit the title to reflect the frontend / backend focus. I'll update this post when it goes back up next week. Feel free to check out our site at https://lil.law.harvard.edu/ and reach out with any questions!

EDIT2: Here are the two postings:
