Be sure to read our pages about <a href="/about/jobs/internship">internships</a>
|
|
in general before applying!

</p>

|
|
<h2>Basic details</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Location:</strong> Berlin, Germany. Please note the FSFE has no ability to help
|
|
with accommodation or travel, you will need to cover this yourself and
|
|
arrange this prior to your internship.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Duration:</strong> 3 months full time at 35 hours per week, starting around the
|
|
1st of January 2017 or as otherwise agreed.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Compensation:</strong> This internship is salaried with a basic salary of €1,289 per month.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Work responsibility and activities</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You will be in charge of rewriting our account management system, a
|
|
central piece of our infrastructure which is the public facing interface
|
|
for new membership registrations, donations and volunteers.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
By rewriting the system with a Python framework, we hope to make it more
|
|
modular and maintainable so we can tackle some of the limitations of the
|
|
current system which is a blocker for some of our other work.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Qualifications</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You need to have experience from development in Python, and some
|
|
knowledge of common web frameworks (Flask, Pyramid or Django, for
|
|
instance). Some CSS framework experience is also beneficial.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Formal requirements</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You must be fluent in English and will be required to show that you
|
|
can legally work in Germany; either by being an EU citizen, or
|
|
by having a residence and work permit for the duration. The FSFE
|
|
can not help you in getting either of these documents, but we will
|
|
accept them if you have them (for instance because you are studying
|
|
in Germany and are allowed to work).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You must also have a German tax number which you get by registering
|
|
with the residents registration office (Einwohnermeldeamt) in Germany.
|
|
This should ideally be done before starting the internship, or at
|
|
latest on the first days of your internship.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Application deadline</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
We would like to receive your application by the 1st of November, but will
|
|
be communicating with prospective applicants already before then.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>How to apply</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Send your application containing a letter of motivation, a CV by e-mail
|
|
to <email>office@fsfe.org</email>. Please make sure to write clearly you apply for
|
|
the internship position with reference TI-WEB. We prefer to receive
|
|
your documents in PDF format.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Contact persons</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|

|
|
details in connection with it, you're welcome to contact:
