The Community Outreach Team in Red Hat’s Open Source Program Office (OSPO) is seeking a Web Developer to support our upstream projects with web site and web application development work.
All of our upstream communities rely on their web presences to communicate about themselves, and to organize community contribution and collaboration. Many of our existing project web sites are in need of an overhaul, and an upgrade of their underlying platform, to make them more usable, maintainable, and secure. There is a need to create new websites for projects as they begin to build their communities as well.
Today, Red Hat’s OSPO supports a
number of communities
that Red Hat relies upon for productization, and many more communities approach OSPO for help deploying new or updated web sites or extending functionality on existing sites.

• Perform UI design and coding and create reusable objects and wireframes for web pages and email templates
• Conduct file backups regularly to local directories

What You Will Bring:

• Dedication to innovative, sophisticated designs, and collaborative problem-solving
