Hi everyone,
we currently are looking for 2-3 working students looking for an opportunity on paid open source work.
In particular, we want to sponsor an initial implementation of the PDF XML Forms Architecture in Okular and/or its underlying PDF library poppler. Our expectation isn’t that the full specification is implemented, but to lay a solid foundation to add elements and get more PDFs compatible. Our internal processes unfortunately rely on PDF XFA, however the actual subset of used elements is quite small.
We offer 1 year contracts (that may be extended), but due to various reasons we can realistcally only employ people currently immatriculated at a German university. Pay depends on your degree and is between 15 to 16,50€ / hour. We are open to discussions about the hours worked per week, but generally require a minimum of 8 hours / week and due to the Werkstudentenprivileg cannot give you more than 20 hours per week.
Ideally, you would be based out of Munich or Weiden in der Oberfpalz; possibly also Berlin.
If this sounds interesting to you, please find further information here:
Best Regards,
Katharina
