<h1>The Tor Project is looking for support assistants and translators!</h1>
|
|
<h1>Note: we've filled this position for now, but we hope to be looking

|
for more support assistants and translators in the future.</h1>

Your job is to handle support requests via our ticketing system and our

documentation are up to date. This is a part-time contractor position
|
|
starting in Q4 2012 and renewing quarterly.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>We are looking for candidates who are fluent in one of Arabic,
|
|
French, Mandarin, Burmese, Vietnamese, Spanish, and English. All must be
|
|
fluent in English.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>

|
|
|
|

|
|
documentation or explaining technical issues to users.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Be comfortable working remotely.</li>
|

|
|
pay rate.</li>
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
<li>Genuinely be excited about Tor and our values.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Have experience with open-source software projects, including
|

working with distributed teams across different time-zones containing

|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Other notes:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Tor developers don't have an office; you can work from
|
|
wherever you want, in basically any country. You'll need to be
|
|
comfortable in this environment! We coordinate via IRC, email,
|
|
and bug trackers.</li>
|
|
<li>Academic degrees are great, but not required if you have
|
|
the right experience.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|

<li>Tell us about your background, experience, skills, and other
|
|
relevant qualifications.</li>

About the company:<br><br>
|
|
The Tor Project is a US 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to research,
|
|
development, and education about online anonymity and privacy. The Tor
|
|
network's 3000 volunteer relays carry 16 Gbps for upwards of half a
|
|
million daily users, including ordinary citizens who want protection
|
|
from identity theft and prying corporations, corporations who want
|
|
to look at a competitor's website in private, people around the world
|
|
whose Internet connections are censored, and even governments and law
|
|
enforcement. Tor has a staff of 14 paid developers, researchers, and
|
|
advocates, plus many dozen volunteers who help out on a daily basis. Tor
|
|
is funded in part by government research and development grants, and
|
|
in part by individual and corporate donations.
