Hi folks, We put up a new job at Freedom of the Press Foundation this week:
https://freedom.press/jobs/job-opening-newsroom-services-coordinator/ In terms of liberation tech, this role interfaces with news orgs installing or maintaining SecureDrop ( https://securedrop.org/ ), the open source whistleblower submission platform originally conceived by Aaron Swartz. The person in this role is also responsible for coordinating our digital security training & consulting services to news organizations, which cover topics from basic ("what's 2FA", password mgmt, etc.) to advanced ("how do I securely manage a Signal tipline"). In this role you have to be comfortable handling a fair number of logistics tasks -- slinging tickets, scheduling calls, organizing contracts, that sort of thing. But there is a lot of potential for long term advancement as well: to learn more about SecureDrop, or the digital security topics that we advise orgs about. So, I'd say this is a great role if your understanding of these topics is not highly advanced yet but you're eager to learn. Perhaps you come from an administrative or tech support background, and would love to fully transition into mission-driven tech work. If this describes you, or someone in your network, please check it out or pass it along. As it says on the page above, we're also happy to have quick calls with folks if you're not entirely sure whether this is the role for you, but want to discuss it. :) Warmly, Erik -- Principal Project Manager Freedom of the Press Foundation -- Liberationtech is public & archives are searchable from any major commercial search engine.
