|

+As an organization dedicated to safeguarding the |
|
| 20 |
+open internet, the Tor Project is participating in the <a |
|
| 21 |
+href="https://advocacy.mozilla.org/en-US/open-web-fellows/overview">Mozilla |
|
| 22 |
+Open Web fellow</a> program as a host. Through this fellowship, |
|
| 23 |
+we're seeking to host a User Advocate to bridge the gap between Tor |
|
| 24 |
+users and Tor developers. If you're passionate about internet freedom |
|
| 25 |
+and improving software to make it more user-friendly, this might be the |
|
| 26 |
+perfect job for you. |
|
| 27 |
+</p> |
|
| 28 |
+ |
|

+<p> |
|
| 30 |
+Tor is widely considered the strongest internet privacy software, |
|
| 31 |
+and we want to make it the most user-friendly. Millions of people use |
|
| 32 |
+Tor every day to protect their privacy, safety, and freedom of expression |
|
| 33 |
+on the internet. Because Tor's users are distributed across the globe |
|
| 34 |
+and have varying levels of technical skill, we are looking for someone |
|
| 35 |
+who can gather data from this diverse group of people to help us make |
|
| 36 |
+usability improvements. |
|
| 37 |
+</p> |
|
| 38 |
+ |
|
| 39 |
+<p> |
|
| 40 |
+Your job will be to identify common user problems: where people |
|
| 41 |
+get stuck setting up or using Tor, and what we can do to address those |
|
| 42 |
+issues. After identifying and documenting the common problems, you will |
|
| 43 |
+coordinate with our teams to ensure the problems are addressed. |
|
| 44 |
+</p> |
|
| 45 |
+ |
|
| 46 |
+<p> |
|
| 47 |
+The ideal candidate will be someone skilled at working with developers |
|
| 48 |
+to understand the root causes of user issues while still maintaining |
|
| 49 |
+a broad, user-centric view of the problems and areas where Tor can |
|
| 50 |
+improve. Previous experience working in a supportive role is a huge |
|
| 51 |
+plus. |
|
| 52 |
+</p> |
|
| 53 |
+ |
|
| 54 |
+<h2>The ideal candidate will have the following:</h2> |
|
| 55 |
+ |
|
| 56 |
+<ul> |
|
| 57 |
+<li>Experience with public interest technology and commitment to |
|
| 58 |
+addressing issues like privacy, security, and inclusion online</li> |
|
| 59 |
+<li>Familiarity with the ins and outs of Tor Browser, the Tor network, |
|
| 60 |
+and the various applications that integrate Tor's privacy and security |
|
| 61 |
+protections</li> |
|
| 62 |
+<li>Exceptional patience and willingness to talk through issues and |
|
| 63 |
+problems with people across many cultures - the more detail you can get |
|
| 64 |
+from affected users, the better!</li> |
|
| 65 |
+<li>Be detail-oriented in filing comprehensive bug reports (Trac is |
|
| 66 |
+the primary tool Tor developers use to discuss and deploy new features |
|
| 67 |
+and bug-fixes)</li> |
|
| 68 |
+<li>Capability of keeping the big picture in mind without becoming overly |
|
| 69 |
+distracted by any single area</li> |
|
| 70 |
+<li>Excitement for being a user advocate and for getting common user |
|
| 71 |
+issues prioritized in the development roadmaps for each team</li> |
|
| 72 |
+<li>Willingness and ability to travel internationally during the term |
|
| 73 |
+of this fellowship</li> |
|
| 74 |
+<li>Fluency in languages other than English is also a major plus.</li> |
|
| 75 |
+</ul> |
|
| 76 |
+ |
|
| 77 |
+<p> |
|
| 78 |
+The fellow will receive a $60,000 stipend, paid in monthly installments, |
|
| 79 |
+as well as supplements for childcare and health insurance. This is a |
|
| 80 |
+full-time fellowship, either working from our Seattle office or remotely. |
