Node PostgreSQL backend web developer to help innovative nonprofit with exciting new projects

Save to Favorites

We are an innovative nonprofit creating exciting new projects to help people in great need. We are looking for a back end developer skilled at Node and/or PostgreSQL to help us do one or more of the following:

1) help us assess the best libraries/plug-ins and strategize the system architecture and information design.

2) evaluate developer applicants, review the work of the developer and give feedback.

3) do coding of new websites, pages and features

If you're able to do one of the above and not the others, we can still consider you for this role. We especially need help with the third item above.

Telecommuting virtually from anywhere in the world is possible. The times of day you do the work are totally flexible.

If you want to get a sense of what we're doing, here are some of our websites that are live, in beta or in initial development. They fall into three broad groups:

1) a group of innovative websites to provide other nonprofits (and their supporters) with unique tools they can use to raise money for their causes. This link below gives an overview: click the "See More" buttons at the end of the sections. In the future, each logo will go to a unique website focused on that fundraising tool. About half of the logos are already linked to sites that are either done or in progress:

http://maximumgood.org/

A few examples are:

https://volunteerathon.org
http://giveitup.net/
http://loseathon.org/

This is a sample of how a person's fundraising page looks - the format is the same at most sites, but each has a unique logo, activity and color scheme:

We've ported the entire IRS database of 1 million nonprofits to our website, so all 1 million nonprofits will automatically have pages at all of the fundraising websites. E.g. -

We're also creating these tools to give people fundraising opportunities every season and holiday of the year: http://calendarforgood.org/


2) new projects to fight global poverty, slavery and climate change. You can see the logos of many of them at these links. In the future clicking on each logo will go to a unique website:

http://fortheearth.org/

There are other climate change websites we're creating and the best ones are not up there yet.

http://fortheslaves.org/

One of the anti-slavery websites is a modern-day equivalent of the Underground Railroad. You can see the video we made for it and a draft of the website here - when we launch, it will be at .org -

http://virtualrailroad.info

3) an existing website that provides news related to making the world a better place covering various topics including nonprofits, human rights, extreme poverty, climate change, giving and volunteering: http://DailySource.org. This site has existed for over 14 years. You can see a few of the team members here: http://DailySource.org/about/team.

If you're interested, please let us know what your past computer experience and current skills are. If you can include a resume (as a link or an attachment), or paste a link to a LinkedIn profile, that would help. Thanks.
