eQualitie | REMOTE | Multiple Roles

eQualitie works for digital freedom via a combination of technical services, infrastructure, educational trainings and hackathons in censorship-prone countries around the world. We are currently hiring for multiple positions:

1. CENO Chrome Extension Developer: https://equalit.ie/job-post/chrome-extension-developer-for-t...

eQualit.ie is seeking an experienced developer for the decentralized web who is motivated by FOSS solutions for defending freedom of expression and association online. The short contract is to create a Chrome extension that will replicate the functionality of CENO Browser on desktop environments. CENO (short for Censorship.no!) is a tool designed to circumvent the most repressive forms of Internet censorship and provide content distribution continuity during network shutdowns. Built on Mozilla for Android, CENO Browser utilizes the Ouinet library (also built by the eQualitie team) to retrieve and then share web content peer-to-peer over BitTorrent’s DHT.

Your responsibilities would include: * Research and development of a prototype Chrome extension for Ouinet, the peer-to-peer library powering CENO Browser; * Technical feasibility analysis and project roadmapping for future stable release; * Documenting work toward long-term maintenance and reproducibility.

2. iOS Developer for OuiSync + Briar: https://equalit.ie/job-post/ios-developer-for-the-decentrali...

Working within a tight-knit team on OuiSync, Briar and [potentially] CENO Browser, your responsibilities would include identifying, prototyping and documenting methods for an iOS app to achieve the following goals: * Discover and connect to nearby peers (iOS and Android) without needing internet access (e.g. Bluetooth, local multicast); * Investigate use of mDNS and DNS-SD on iOS and its interoperability with Android; * Investigate options for the app to run in the background under various networking conditions; * Sharing application data as files with other iOS applications.

Please share with your networks and feel free to email me privately if you have any questions. eQ is a remote-first organization. Please apply via the links above.

3. Regional Ambassadors for Deflect + CENO Browser: https://equalit.ie/job-post/regional-ambassadors-for-ceno-de...

We are looking for informed and motivated individuals to promote our tools and services to local media, civil society, democratic movements and activist organizations. You will help us define and lead outreach strategies in your country/ies of focus, offer onboarding support and help users coordinate with our helpdesks. In turn, you will receive training on the given tools and services. We are looking for regional ambassadors from the 2023 priority list (see bottom of the listing).
