Employment Type: Full-Time
DMPonline is a service which allows researchers to create and maintain data management plans for their research whilst meeting expectations placed on them by funders, the institutions they work in, and disciplinary norms. It's free to use for researchers, and the system is sustained by selling services to institutions, funders and national consortia.
DMPonline currently has 61 customers and over 60,000 users and is seeing sustained growth of 20%/year. DMPonline utilises an open-source codebase to which the DCC and the DMPTool team at UC3 are the major contributors.
You will join a team undertaking software development for the service, which utilises the Ruby-on-Rails framework. This will include maintenance and bug fixes, feature development for specific customers and projects, and longer-term strategic planning.
You'll work as part of a team focused on DMPonline which includes developers, infrastructure expertise, business development, user liaison, and service management roles. The team also engages with and draws on other elements of the DCC's work, including research and coordination projects, events, consultancy, and training.
