This initiative requires close coordination across more than 300 German universities and research institutions, as well as with national and European research infrastructures.

To support this ambitious endeavour, we are seeking a scientist with expertise in modern web technologies, particularly the development of user-facing web portals and backend services. The successful candidate will be motivated to contribute to the design, development, and operation of these technologies within the evolving European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) ecosystem.
