I have really wonderful news! #QGIS.org is going to fund a full-time document writer to help the really overtaxed documentation team. Please read the rest of this thread for details!
This will be a 12-month contractor position with @KartozaGeo acting as the managing company for the employment contract.
The salary (1300 EUROS per month) probably means the position is more suitable for someone living in a developing nation where the cost of living is low.
What skills are needed? You need to have excellent writing skills, and good technical skills (learning some Git and Sphinx / RST is inevitable if you don't already know it, we can train you to use these if needed).
Most of all you should love and use #QGIS regularly, and have general GIS knowledge so that you can help to explain QGIS functionality in a clear and approachable way to our documentation readers.
You will be working closely with the team from @KartozaGeo for your daily supervision. Our team is a wonderful, diverse, and distributed group of people and we welcome the opportunity to make it even more diverse!
You will work remotely and BYODAI (Bring Your Own Device and Internet). You need to be willing (and be excited to) adhere to the QGIS Code of Conduct (qgis.org/en/site/getinv…) and the QGIS Diversity Statement (qgis.org/en/site/getinv…).
If you are interested, please contact us via email at jobs@kartoza.com with the subject line "Application for QGIS Documentation Writer Position". Please include your CV and an example of your writing. Applications close on 27 November 2022.
Lastly a note to all those organisations out there: We need your help - we can make QGIS (in all respects, not just the desktop application) soooo much better if you fund #QGIS.org.
