Fun personal announcement: I&#39;m changing jobs! 🙂 Starting in June, I&#39;ll be working at @tibhannover with @Lambo and team as a Research Software Engineer. The job posting is still online, so you can see here what I&#39;ll be up to: https://www.tib.eu/en/tib/careers-and-apprenticeships/vacancies/details/stellenausschreibung-nr-7-2026 Basically it&#39;s about research data infrastructure, particularly integrating SciOp (https://sciop.net) at TIB. It&#39;s exciting stuff, I&#39;m looking forward to it, and I believe I will be working with fun people in- and outside of TIB itself! 😄

Interestingly enough, even though the job posting doesn't really shine a spotlight on it, this is kind of an ActivityPub job! That's because SciOp has decided to use AP for some of its server interactions. I don't know yet how my time will be divided between internal responsibilities and public open source work, but I'm hoping I'll be able to lend a hand with SciOp itself, and maybe do some “on the clock” FEP writing and other protocol-related work. 😎
