EngineeringFull-time
About the role
Post-X Society is a FLOSS-first organization that rejects proprietary platforms like Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and AWS. We develop our own tools, run our own servers, and prioritize Free/Libre Open Source Software—not for techno-utopian ideals, but because digital infrastructure is power, and power should be democratically controlled.
Responsibilities
- Develop custom tools for our projects
- Implement and maintain FLOSS solutions (e.g., Matrix Synapse, Element, Pretix, WordPress, Listmonk)
- Manage our servers and digital infrastructure
- Evaluate new FLOSS alternatives
- Document processes to help others transition away from Big Tech
Requirements
- Currently studying HBO/WO ICT or equivalent experience
- Experience with Linux, self-hosting, and open-source development
- Critical perspective on technology as a tool for societal change, not a neutral instrument
- Frustration with surveillance capitalism and closed software
Benefits
- Experience working in a FLOSS-first organization
- Opportunity to learn from and contribute to the FLOSS community
- Intellectual freedom to experiment and innovate
- Internship stipend
We embrace experimentation, mistakes, and collective learning.
