Senior Software Engineer
We are looking for a senior “full-stack” software engineer who’s excited about open source, making communities sustainable, and transparent finances.
We think you’d be great at this if you:
- Are comfortable in a remote environment that is at the same time highly collaborative (we apply a seeking feedback process) and autonomous (you can run a feature end to end on your own!)
- Are based within 6 hours of Central European Time:
- to optimize timezone overlaps with the current engineering team (who are predominantly based in Europe)
- Have significant experience as a full stack engineer using JavaScript (“senior”)
- Are familiar with the technologies used in our two main projects:
- our GraphQL API (powered by Node, PostgreSQL and Sequelize)
- our Web App (powered by Next.js, React and Apollo).
- You are excited about our mission and share our philosophy.
Senior Product Manager
We are looking for a senior product manager who is excited about creating a world in which it is as rewarding and financially secure to build and maintain software for the commons as it is for the corporation.
We think you’d be great at this if you:
- Are comfortable in a remote environment that is at the same time highly collaborative (we apply a seeking feedback process) and autonomous (you will own complete features and products!)
- Are based within 6 hours of Central European time:
- to optimize timezone overlaps with the current product team (who are based in the UK)
- Have significant experience as a product manager in a software business (“senior”) i.e. a digital platform or product organisation.
- Are comfortable with the processes, tools and trade-offs required to build and maintain products as a small team, with minimal support, including but not limited to:
- conducting, interpreting and conveying the results of user and market research, both quantitative and qualitative (we use Metabase and Matomo)
- building context for and collaborating with design and engineering to develop, scope, prioritize, execute, test and iterate on solutions
- documenting, releasing, marketing and supporting products after launch
- supporting leadership to make effective strategic decisions on product development and success.
- You have experience working within or adjacent to open source communities, are excited about our mission, and share our philosophy.
