Me | part time backend node dev | Sydney | Onsite

I've got an open room in a penthouse on the beach in Sydney. Essentially I'd like you to come live in it for free and work part time on one of my open source side projects. This is the view you'd wake up to: https://i.imgur.com/3TiTwBp.jpg and the view from the other side of the apartment: https://i.imgur.com/7c3D4En.jpg . It's not bad. I've got surfboards if as well if you're into that, and the snorkeling just out front is some of the best in Sydney: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKrdldogMLw

Position is from now until March. Three days a week on my project gets you a free room and free food.

About the project itself: Creating a Patreon meets Reddit kinda site. User pays $5/mo, we take $1 to run the servers without ads or tracking, then the remaining $4 gets split evenly between everything they upvoted that month. Philosphies I'm going into this with: Entirely open source, no ads ever, all analytics are purely opt-in. I'm a front end guy and right now I'm grinding my gears with the backend, so anyone that can create node apis secured with JWTs is really who I need.

If you're interested hit me up at j at jjcm.org
