Folks,
Hi. We now have a grant to convert the Tree of Life project into a full-fledged database, and are looking for a lead developer to help us with this effort. If you know of any good candidates, please pass this note their way.
Below is a portion of the official job advertisement; the complete ad with more details can be found at http://hr2.hr.arizona.edu/17905xcox.htm.
========
We seek an applications and database developer to redesign and implement a database of biological organisms (The Tree of Life Project). The Tree of Life (http://phylogeny.arizona.edu/tree) is a widely-used, multi-authored, international, distributed Internet project containing information about phylogeny and biodiversity. This position will be lead developer in the rebuilding of the project as database-driven system with open-source, Java-based data entry tools and flexible data-presentation and manipulation modules. Additionally, this position will coordinate with other bioinformatics projects (e.g. NABIN, species2000) to ensure interoperability of the data served by the project. As lead developer in the project, this person will oversee the day-to-day duties of two half-time graduate research assistants, and provide expertise and leadership when needed for these positions.
