The NHQ:IT - Enterprise Web Services - Code4Good Volunteer is an enthusiastic team player who wants to support the Red Cross mission by contributing your software engineering talent to develop features for the platform powering Redcross.org, Redcrossblood.org and related apps. Our platform represents a gateway for accomplishing several key goals of the Red Cross:

We operate Code4Good like an open-source project where a team leader/product owner publishes a product roadmap of stories, features, and tasks; we conduct planning sessions where you commit to an item based on your availability; and we ship code at the end of the work cycle. You can control your daily and weekly commitments based on your availability. All contributions large or small are welcome in this first-of-its-kind volunteer workforce program.
