While I am quite happy working in the library profession, it's not one where getting absurdly rich is a concern.

There is currently an opening at the Nashua library

I've been at my current position for almost 11 years now and I'm thinking about moving on to something fresh. I'm looking for some ideas in the Milford/Nashua area.

The kind of thing I would be looking for would ideally be some kind of non-vanilla-business-app thing (engineering/scientific, for instance) with a small group where everyone does a little bit of everything (vs a cog in a huge machine). I'm a software engineer, but I have done IS/IT and don't object to it sprinkled throughout my day. Something where knowing a little bit about everything and being able to learn the details quickly is more valuable than already knowing everything about one thing. Examples:

 - software engineer supporting research scientist
 - programmer/sysadmin at library/school

Any ideas?
