About Helpful Engineering

Helpful Engineering is an international, open-source community incubator focused on mobilizing people to help solve the Covid-19 pandemic and other critical issues. With thousands of volunteers worldwide, we support projects through innovations in engineering, community resources, software, and manufacturing. Most of the projects are focused on finding solutions to fix the lack of products used by healthcare professionals, including hardware and software, but also non-technical products like surgical masks.

We have engineers and doctors all around the world who are producing ventilators, protective equipment, websites, and systems to organize volunteers to assist their communities and medical workers. They are making heroic efforts to produce products in time to help the outbreak.

Volunteer Position Description & Responsibilities

We are designing a ventilator that has little mechanical complexity and is heavily dependent on software and controls. This design will simplify assembly and manufacturing, while a global volunteer workforce develops high-quality software that is easy to reproduce and transmit.

In this role, you will lead the implementation of the crucial software components for a medical ventilator. You will be involved in a variety of tasks - from adding logic that controls sensors to higher-level logic that displays and interacts with alarms. We are keeping a high quality of our code, and you will be also involved in code reviews. The lead developer is expected to develop a testable and maintainable architecture, work with requirements to ensure we meet regulatory and broader user requirements.

Our organization is organic, transparent, and follows the principles of open source and effective altruism. Helpful Engineering expects all volunteers to adopt a professional attitude and be respectful of their fellow volunteers, which includes politeness, punctuality, giving notice, and communicating openly and transparently their work and progresses.
