As a Systems team member, you will have the opportunity to contribute to strategic software projects, provide technical expertise and operational support to PKP's hosting services, and work with clients to help them realize their publishing visions. You will be responsible for developing secure, user-friendly, and cross-platform software solutions using PHP, MySQL, and JavaScript.

You will have opportunities to travel, participate in conferences and workshops, and interact with a growing international community of users in the academic, software development, and publishing worlds. This is a fixed-term contract with a probationary period and good potential for continuing work. Salary is negotiable based on qualifications and experience.

  • Experience with MySQL
  • Experience with git


Additional consideration will be given to candidates for:

  • Experience with modern PHP frameworks such as Laravel or Symfony.
  • Experience with modern JavaScript frameworks such as Vue or React.

  • Experience with GitHub or GitLab.
  • Experience with task automation through scripting. 
  • Experience with PKP software or a large, open source project.
  • Enthusiasm for “open”, including open access, standards, and data.
  • Experience with remote work in a small, distributed team.
  • Excellent problem-solving, time management, and organizational skills.
  • Excellent communication, interpersonal, and teamwork skills.
