  • Analyze, transform, and load customer data into their new FOLIO instance, using EBSCO's suite of migration tools
  • Use your skills and experience, as appropriate, to handle escalated support issues, fix FOLIO data errors, and/or contribute to the migration tools

Your Team


You will be welcomed as a member of the Data Empowers FOLIO team, a team of dedicated and knowledgeable Data ICs, as well as the sibling team of PM ICs, with whom you will work closely.

Our team enjoys the flexibility and greater work life balance working remotely offers.

There will be ample resources, tools, training, and support to ensure your success as a Data IC and your development and career growth at EIS.
