+<h2>Tor: Open Positions</h2> |
|

+<hr /> |
|
| 10 |
+ |
|
| 11 |
+<p>Tor is hiring! We're looking for self-motivated individuals who are |
|
| 12 |
+able to work independently and want to help make Tor better. |
|
| 13 |
+</p> |
|
| 14 |
+ |
|
| 15 |
+<p>In particular, we're looking for three categories of people:</p> |
|
| 16 |
+<ul> |
|
| 17 |
+<li><a href="#developer">Software Developer</a></li> |
|
| 18 |
+<li><a href="#activist">Activist/Outreach</a></li> |
|
| 19 |
+<li><a href="#nonprofit">Nonprofit Development</a></li> |
|
| 20 |
+</ul> |
|
| 21 |
+ |
|
| 22 |
+<p>Working on Tor is rewarding because:</p> |
|
| 23 |
+<ul> |
|
| 24 |
+<li>You can work your own hours in your own locations. As long as you |
|
| 25 |
+get the job done, we don't care about the process.</li> |
|
| 26 |
+<li>We only write free (open source) software. The tools you make won't |
|
| 27 |
+be locked down or rot on a shelf.</li> |
|
| 28 |
+<li>You will work with a world-class team of anonymity experts and |
|
| 29 |
+developers on what is already the largest and most active strong anonymity |
|
| 30 |
+network ever.</li> |
|
| 31 |
+</ul> |
|
| 32 |
+ |
|
| 33 |
+<p> |
|
| 34 |
+We want you to have good communication and writing skills (in particular, |
|
| 35 |
+you should know how to keep other project members informed of your |
|
| 36 |
+progress), and we want you to know how to figure out what needs doing and |
|
| 37 |
+then take the initiative to do it. Most project members play more than |
|
| 38 |
+one role, so combination developer/activist/grantwriters are very welcome. |

|
| 44 |
+<p> |
|
| 45 |
+The best way to get noticed as a good developer is to join the community |
|
| 46 |
+and start helping out. We have a great core group of developers working |
|
| 47 |
+on the Tor software itself as well as supporting software like Vidalia, |
|
| 48 |
+Torbutton, etc. |
|
| 49 |
+</p> |
|
| 50 |
+ |
|
| 51 |
+<p> |
|
| 52 |
+Periodically we get new funding to work on more development |
|
| 53 |
+projects. Your goal should be to get into the list of <a href="<page |
|
| 54 |
+people>#Core">core project members</a> so we think of you when new |
|
| 55 |
+funding arrives. |

|

+<p> |
|
| 62 |
+There are a lot of excited people about there who want to help Tor |
|
| 63 |
+— by running relays, helping users, writing documentation, |
|
| 64 |
+working on add-on tools, and so on. We need to keep in touch with |
|
| 65 |
+all of them, help them work with each other, and help them understand |
|
| 66 |
+where they can be most useful. |
|
| 67 |
+</p> |
|
| 68 |

+Tor activists should understand Tor's role in the world, and they should |
|
| 71 |
+be good at explaining to the world why privacy/security/anonymity are |
|
| 72 |
+important. They should also be well-connected with other groups around |
|
| 73 |
+the world who care about these issues. |
|
| 74 |

|
| 75 |

|

|
| 77 |
+Like the developer positions above, the best way to get noticed |
|
| 78 |
+for this position is to start helping out: join the <a href="<page |
|
| 79 |
+documentation>#MailingLists">mailing lists</a> and the <a href="<page |
|
| 80 |
+documentation>#Support">IRC channel</a>, help clean up our FAQ, and |
|
| 81 |
+generally be useful. Once we notice you're competent and reliable, |
|
| 82 |
+we'll add you to the <a href="<page contact>">"tor-assistants"</a> list, |
|
| 83 |
+and we can see where it goes from there. |

+can manage relationships with all the other civil liberties and human |
|
| 92 |

|
| 93 |
+potential funders into actual funders. This director would talk to |
|
| 94 |
+the media as well as manage public relations for Tor. |

|
| 106 |
