The Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG) in Berlin seeks
an outstanding scholar for the position of

Research IT Developer (full time, TVöD E14). The position will be for one
year with possibility of extension.

Candidates should have strong skills and rich experiences in designing
web-based software with intuitive user interface and in programming. S/he
will be working in a digital humanities project on Chinese local monographs
(difangzhi 地方志). This project aims to provide historians a series of web
user interfaces that will allow them to extract data from historical texts,
to store and share the extracted data, and to apply third party
visualization and analysis tools on the extracted data.

The successful candidate will be responsible for evaluating and customizing
existing tools for this project and will work closely with the digital
content curator in house, who is responsible for the whole project. This
position will have the chance to collaborate with historians, IT
developers, and colleagues from top research or archival institutions. In
order to adopt and customize tools developed by international teams based
overseas, the successful candidate will need to communicate with the teams
remotely through email correspondence or Skype meetings. Having experiences
in digital humanities or humanities-tailored IT projects is preferred but
not necessary, so as the language skill of classical Chinese.

Skills and requirement:
• 5+ years of experience of web programming in Java, PHP, and Javascript
• Familiar with Unicode handling, text processing, regular expressions, and
databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) in Java and PHP
• Capable of designing and implementing a complete software
• Proficiency in English writing and speaking
• Capable of working independently and proactively
• Good communication skills with both developers and non-developers

Additional qualifications (optional):
• Reading of classical Chinese
• Experience in digital humanities projects

building right next to FU!
