Zetkin is a web based platform for organizing activism using tools that make participation easier and simplify common tasks in activist organizations.
Zetkin Foundation is a part of Vänsterpartiet Malmö, in charge of developing Zetkin and spreading successful organizing methods throughout the international left.
Most of the people doing work in Zetkin Foundation are volunteers, but there is also a core team of part-time designers and developers, and over the next few years we want to grow that team.
Are you a UX/UI designer?
Our team of permanent part-time developers has grown and we need to add someone with UX/UI skills to the team, so that we’re always one step ahead in our development process.
This role will involve collaborating closely with our developers, establishing user journeys, creating wireframes, designing our user interface, and building and maintaining our design system.
We really want to hear from you if you have experience with things like:
- UX research and design
- Design systems
- Product design
- User testing
If you’re able to code a little (we use Typescript and React) that’s also good to know.
Are you a developer?
We’re also always in need of more developers, both permanent and in freelance. We really want to hear from you if you know (or would like to learn) some of the following, and want to be part of our development team.
- Node and React (or similar frameworks)
- Responsive design with CSS/SASS
- Cross-platform mobile development (e.g. Flutter)
- Python for server development
- Docker and dev/ops
Let’s define the role together
You can be a junior fresh out of school, a capable hobbyist or an experienced senior. It’s not important whether your primary skills are design, front-end or back-end development, mobile or web.
For us the most important thing is to find someone who shares our progressive ideas and can learn what’s necessary. We can define the role together based on some common principles:
- Everyone at Zetkin Foundation have the same salary, which is higher than a typical Swedish junior salary, but lower than a senior
- Everyone at Zetkin Foundation work part-time
- We have a distributed team who works mostly remotely, and our working language is English
Please get in touch if you want to contribute to empowering progressive organizations. Send us an e-mail at info@zetkin.org.
Contribute some other way?
If the listings above are a bad fit, but you still want to contribute to Zetkin, please let us know! There is always room for more volunteers, regardless of what your skills and preferences are. If you have a brand new idea, let us know! Get in touch at info@zetkin.org.
