OurGoods.org is an online barter network for creative people. Founded in 2009 by sharing enthusiasts Carl Tashian, Rich Watts, Louise Ma, Jen Abrams, and Caroline Woolard, OurGoods connects artists, designers, craftspeople, and activists to trade skills, spaces, and objects. OurGoods is funded by the Rockefeller Cultural Innovation Fund, has been featured in exhibitions at Creative Time and Exit Art, and received press from Fast Company, the New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal. We are looking for developers to help us conceptualize and build the expansion of our site. We are looking for experienced developers who can work independently. If you are enthusiastic about what we do, and have experience as a back-end engineer using Ruby on Rails or as a front-end engineer using HTML/CSS/Javascript/HAML/SASS, we’d love to talk to you about joining our team.
