Who we are
DARIAH, the Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities, is a pan-­European Research Infrastructure, which aims to enhance and support digitally-enabled research and teaching across the humanities and arts.

On 15 August 2014, DARIAH was established as a European legal entity, the DARIAH-­ERIC (European Research Infrastructure Consortium). The DARIAH-­ERIC has 17 member countries -­ Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, The Netherlands, Slovenia and Serbia. The DARIAH-­EU Coordination Office is responsible for coordinating the day-to-day activities of DARIAH-EU. The DARIAH-EU Coordination Office is a distributed team with offices in Germany, France and The Netherlands. The key tasks of the DCO are to:

  • provide high quality support to the DARIAH-EU Members, Observers and Cooperating Partners
  • ensure the efficient and effective operation of the DARIAH-ERIC
  • provide high quality communication within DARIAH-EU and to the wider digital arts and humanities research community in Europe and beyond

Context: “Humanities at Scale”, DESIR, PARTHENOS.
Humanities at scale (https://www.dariah.eu/activities/projects-and-affiliations/has/) is a Horizon 2020 funded project The aim of the project is to address limitations of the current model of sharing knowledge in DARIAH and of connecting the national activities in digital arts and humanities initiatives in Europe. It focuses on delivering a stronger core for DARIAH’s operations as well as on providing more resources for all communities within DARIAH. The duration of the project is from September 2015 – December 2017.

Humanities at scale is followed by the project DESIR (http://cordis.europa.eu/project/rcn/207190_en.html) which will provide future sustainability for the DARIAH ERIC. The project will end in December 2019.

(http://cordis.europa.eu/project/rcn/194932_en.html) PARTHENOS aims at strengthening the cohesion of research in the broad sector of Linguistic Studies, Humanities, Cultural Heritage, History, Archaeology and related fields through a thematic cluster of European Research Infrastructures, integrating initiatives, e-infrastructures and other world-class infrastructures, and building bridges between different, although tightly, interrelated fields. The project will end in May 2019.

Role: The post will require a combination of theoretical work, design and implementation of proof-of-concept tools and other software components and evaluation.

  • he/she will possess design experience and functional knowledge of the utilization of various web services standards (e.g. REST); design patterns (e.g. MVC), design methodologies (e.g. Agile\Scrum, etc.)

Principal duties:

  • Support the development of environments for open data and shareable methods for data-driven research
  • Execute distributed data and metadata design to share data and information across distributed sites
  • Take requirements and develop the technical design for assigned work as well as ensure proper usage
