<h1>FSFE is hiring a working student as an assistant system administrator</h1> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
We are looking for a working student to support our work to empower |
|
people to control technology. The person will work 10 hours per week |
|
in the Berlin office (home office possible at a later stage) and will |
|
support the FSFE's technical infrastructure by working closely |
|
together with our system administrators. |
|
</p> |

<h2>About the FSFE</h2> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
Free Software Foundation Europe is a charity that empowers users to |
|
control technology. Software is deeply involved in all aspects of our |
|
lives and it is important that technology empowers rather than |
|
restricts us. Free Software gives everybody the rights to use, |
|
understand, adapt, and share software. These rights help support other |
|
fundamental freedoms like freedom of speech, press, and privacy. |
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
The FSFE helps individuals and organisations to understand how Free |
|
Software contributes to freedom, transparency, and |
|
self-determination. It enhances users' rights by abolishing barriers |
|
to Free Software adoption, encourages people to use and develop Free |
|
Software, and provides resources to enable everyone to further |
|
promote Free Software in Europe. |
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
We are involved in <a href="/activities/">many activities</a> in the |
|
legal, economic, political and technical areas around Free Software. |
|
Our work is made possible by a community of volunteers, supporters, |
|
donors, and staff. The assistant system administrator's job will |
|
strengthen the technical backbone of our operations. |
|

We are looking for a reliable, well-organised member of our technical |
|
teams who is keen to learn about old and new technologies. You |
|
support the whole organisation in its mission. Long-term thinking, |

efficiency and effectiveness are more important to you than the |
|
newest cool technology on the block. |

<h2 id="details">Working time and compensation</h2> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|

|
stage, home office is possible. The salary is based on the currently |

<p> |
|
Free Software is meant to serve everyone regardless of their age, |
|
ability or disability, gender identity, sex, race, religion or |
|
sexual orientation. Hence, we encourage applications from all |
|
backgrounds and promise to judge all applications on merit, without |
|
reference to any of the characteristics listed. To promote diversity |
|
and equality in the Free Software community, we shall give preference |
|
to applicants who identify as part of a traditionally marginalised |
|
demographic in technology for applications of equal strength. |
