By Software for Good

At Software for Good, we believe that technology should be built with love. We bring people and technology together to solve complex world problems like climate change, housing, health care, human rights, renewable energy, and education. We are a mission-driven team of technologists building Web and mobile applications with clients from startups to social enterprises to nonprofits to educational and government entities. We have a deep commitment to the people we serve.

We want to meet you!

We are looking to connect with front-end developers who want to put their skills to use building technology that helps people live more fully and freely. We are currently seeking collaborators for potential long-term contracts who share our values and can partner with our clients to harness the power of technology for shared abundance and liberation.

Working with Software for Good means the opportunity to provide our clients thoughtful guidance on the impacts of technology—intended and unintended—and finding the most effective ways to reach their goals. We’ve partnered with some amazing organizations to build software to connect people to housing, deliver mental health care online, transform food systems, and more. You can see some of our past projects here.

Some of the skills we’re looking for include:

• WordPress and/or Drupal development

• React or React Native development

• TypeScript

• Tailwind CSS or other CSS frameworks

• Expertise in building accessible experiences following WCAG standards

• Experience creating responsive websites that put users’ needs first

• Close collaboration with clients to understand their goals, make their ideas tangible, and make sure functionality aligns with the project’s strategic vision

We’re looking for new skills and perspectives to add to our network. We strive to include people from underrepresented backgrounds, and would love to know what specific talents you could bring to our mission-driven client projects.

We work fully remotely. Generally, we extend the opportunity for work on an as-needed basis, and aren’t able to guarantee a regular number of hours in advance. For legal and payment reasons, we are only able to work with people authorized to work in the United States. Our contracting rates are $75–$115/hour based on level of experience.

Wondering if this opportunity is a good fit for you? We think we have a lot to offer, including the chance to do meaningful work alongside people who really care and a positive work environment with a fully remote team.
