Working in coordination with the Program and Lab director on each project, Prof. Intisar Rabb, the research data scientist will work actively to advance designated projects in line with our mission: to provide resources and promote research in the academic study of Islamic law, and to facilitate new insights in Islamic law and history with the use of data science tools.
Successful candidates will able to work independently yet collaboratively, to lead work on designated projects with a small but active team of staff and collaborative partners, and to conduct the technical and subject-matter research necessary to build systems and write research papers on their basis. To those ends, proficiency in back-end databases, web-application development, and NLP/Client is expected; our most common stack includes Python, Mongo, SQL, Ruby, and Javascript; knowledge of Islamic studies or law and history, and of related right-to-left (RTL) languages, is highly desirable.
