Seeking Android/Python contractors


Guardian Project is seeking Android/Python contractors for mobile/free software/privacy work!

We’re looking for self-motivated, free software hackers to work with Guardian Project on privacy and internet freedom for mobile devices. Our work is 100% free software and we have a steady stream of projects that tie into F-Droid, Tor, IPFS, Debian, and censorship circumvention. We work to support people and communities around the world. This is a flexible, remote position but we also like to work in person when possible.

About you

  • Have at least a few years of experience with native Android development and/or Python.
  • Demonstrated the ability to work collaboratively.
  • Understand public, free software workflows
  • Are proactive and self-directed.
  • Fluent in Git.

Bonus points for

  • Ruby/Go/C/Rust skills
  • Debian (and derivatives)
  • Ansible/Docker/Vagrant/Kubernetes
  • Experience with GitLab and its API
  • Understanding privacy implications of metadata
  • Life experiences that are underrepresented in tech work
  • Fluency in more than one language
  • User research and UX design
  • Blogging and writing

About us

This is for projects managed by Hans-Christoph Steiner. We work in Vienna, Austria so ideally you work in a similar time zone, but that is not a requirement. We work in English but our team members speak many languages. Work is contract-based but with the possibility to shift into full-time employment in the future.
