Hello Gender gap listserve, Trying to lift up all the work that people on this listserve do, is a new wikimedia-grant funded project humaniki < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Maximilianklein/humaniki>. If you're familiar with Wikimedia biography gender-gap tracking tools WHGI and Denelezh, this is the next iteration of those. The idea is to* co-design this tool with editors*, and as such, it would be* amazing to have gendergap editors take paid roles in the development*. There are two contracts, one for a UX Researcher and one for a Frontend Software Engineer. Please find the details of the roles below. And additionally on that co-design theme, we are* interested in gathering feedback from this community on what are the data needs of diversity-focused editors*. So if you would be interested to chat with us on what features should go into humaniki, please contact me as well.
*Role: Community UX Researcher* Full Job Description: https://notconfusing.com/images/Community_UX_Researcher.pdf The role of community UX Researcher is to facilitate the co-design process of creating humaniki. You will identify community groups with whom to partner, elicit their product needs, and synthesize it into a design specification. Liaising between the community and the humaniki engineering team, in multiple rounds of development, you troubleshoot and make decisions to ensure the tool is effective. Finally, you'll communicate the project's development through blog posts, online trainings and other media. *Role: Frontend Software Engineer* Full Job Description: https://notconfusing.com/images/Frontend_Software_Engineer.pdf The role of the software engineer is to build the humaniki web-app in collaboration with the backend engineer and UX researcher. After receiving the design specification from our community UX researcher, you will give input into the stack and architecture. You develop web and data-visualization features to make them ready for user testing, as part of an iterative development cycle. Supporting a launch of the tool, you monitor and fix bugs to make sure the application is robust for users. Make a great day, Max Klein ‽ http://notconfusing.com/
