Now is the chance to become the lead of our new Data Warehouse project. You will get a ton of responsibility, the opportunity to affect the direction of the software and code, full flexibility of working hours and where to work from (remotely or from our office in CPH), and a guarantee to learn and grow as a developer. Interested? If so you will be building software for libraries and universities including Stanford, Yale, UPenn, the United Nations and many other high profile institutions.

To help our libraries make more informed decisions we are looking for an experienced Data Engineer who can be the lead on this new Data Warehouse project which in a classical ETL setup should allow us to manage huge data sets.

ConsortiaManager is a CRM tool with built-in workflow solutions and business insights for libraries. Our objective is to help libraries and universities across the world make better purchasing decisions and to save time doing so; resulting in improved processes and savings on the bottom-line. The system is currently handling more than €750 million of purchases every year. Our core users work with the system for several hours each day; so every detail and every improvement counts.

Please notice that we are not looking to fill this position with candidates from recruiting or outsourcing firms.
