The Digital Humanities Lab (DHLab) at Yale University Library invites applications for two 12-month Postdoctoral Associate positions for the 2016-2017 academic year. The DHLab seeks energetic and creative applicants who demonstrate innovative thinking and a proactive approach to the questions that digital humanities methods, approaches, tools, and theories raise in their academic disciplines.

The focus of these 12-month positions is 50% on a research project defined by the applicant in consultation with a Yale faculty member and 50% on the development and growth of the DHLab. We seek candidates who will be active participants in the intellectual life of both the relevant academic department and also the DHLab.

These positions’ primary reporting relationship will be to the sponsoring Yale faculty member; the Director of the Digital Humanities Lab will coordinate their integration into the DHLab. Yale University Library will provide dedicated working space in the new DHLab in Sterling Memorial Library, a budget for computing equipment, and the opportunity to collaborate with technical staff, including a Developer and UX Designer.
