Hi, We're Fractured Atlas http://www.fracturedatlas.org. We're a non-profit tech company that helps artists make their art while we handle the nitty-gritty.
We're badly in need of a UI/UX-type. We have several different tech products and each one has it's own look and feel. As we move along, we'd like the L&F of those products to converge rather than diverge.
We need someone to come in and be the authority on this sort of thing. Create a new Bootstrap theme to unify this stuff. Help us understand why this is good and this is bad.
You'll have a fair amount of authority and autonomy. Big features start out with prototyping/wireframing and this is where you'll be a big asset. Work with the biz to refine a feature before it hits the devs and becomes a thrashing boondoggle.
This position REQUIRES that you be at least familiar with Ruby and Ruby on Rails. We're good at teaching people this stuff (we run a fellowship program that teaches artists to code) but whoever comes in to this position will at least need some foundation to stand on. We'll do our best to train up the rest.
We offer all sorts of perks like a fun office, fun people to work with, and a management team that is truly willing to listen to feedback and react. A bunch of other stuff too.
NYC-based would be fantastic but a lot of us are remote so that might work too.

Hi! We're Fractured Atlas, a national non-profit that supports artists and the arts. We have several technical projects going on like Artful.ly and NYCPASpaces.
We're big on open source but looking to get bigger: github.com/fracturedatlas.
The non-profit is based in Manhattan but our dev team is almost entirely remote. We'd prefer you be on the East Coast (DC-Boston) but as long as you don't mind to travel then you can work from wherever. We try to rope the whole dev team together twice a year.
We need a senior Ruby/Rails guy right now and we'll be needed some more junior people over the course of this year. Most of our work is primarily in Rails but we have an iOS app, a PHP app, and we'r ere-engineering a lot of infrastructure so some of that stuff is open to discussion. I am particularly excited by Go.
Get in touch at gary.moore@fracturedatlas.org and say you heard about us on the HN news thread.
