 June 2018

 The Tor Project, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization advancing human
 rights and freedoms by creating and deploying free and open source
 anonymity and privacy technologies, is seeking a Project Manager to help
 coordinate the projects of our Network, Metrics, and Anti-Censorship
 teams, as well as our network interference observatory team known as OONI.

 The ideal candidate has experience leading an open source project. Tor is
 developed and maintained collaboratively through the contributions of a
 diverse, global community. We work hard to choose communications tools
 that encourage participation, where every contributor is heard and
 respected. The person in this job must be a team player with excellent
 communication skills.

 Our Network Projects PM understands that inter-team collaboration makes
 each team stronger, and will focus on helping teams work together
 effectively. This person will be responsible for ensuring a productive,
 healthy work environment so all team members are able to contribute
 effectively and to the best of their abilities. All teams are distributed
 globally across multiple time zones, so the ability to organize and
 communicate via chats, email, etc., is crucial. This person will also be
 the link between the teams, volunteers, and sponsors (funders), and thus
 must have strong organizational skills and the ability to communicate in
 writing to diverse audiences.

 You will be helping the teams roadmap, identify projects for grant
 proposals, manage project execution, and write progress reports to our
 sponsors. You are an experienced professional who is capable of building
 processes and best practices for the teams, regardless of the tools being
 used.

 This position will work closely with other team leads and project
 managers. This position reports directly to the Executive Director.

 Responsibilities
 •       Provide advice to teams where needed and point them in the right
 direction; help them understand what is expected of them
 •       Coordinate the transfer of information to and between the teams,
 sponsors, and greater Tor community
 •       Organize team meetings, help your teams plan their roadmaps, and
 show the teams how to improve their processes
 •       Work with the Tor Project’s Fundraising Director and Grant Writer
 on grant proposals by providing them with your teams’ ideas for projects
 and the personnel needed for execution
 •       Manage risks and issues that might occur while executing a project
 •       Manage execution of roadmap and monitor the progress of your
 teams’ projects

 Qualifications:
 •       Solid knowledge of internet technologies and security tools
 •       Super organized
 •       Know-how to build great processes no matter what tools teams are
 using
 •       Great facilitator
 •       Excellent written and verbal communication skills
 •       Experience managing people
 •       Knowledge of and experience with software development life-cycle
 process
 •       Experience with Free and Open Source Software culture
 •       Comfortable with transparency
 •       Excellent attention to detail
 •       Prior experience working on U.S. government grants and contracts a
 plus!
 •       Willingness to travel to internationally at least twice a year

 The Tor Project's workforce is smart and committed. Experience working
 with open source communities and/or a dedication to Internet freedom are
 added pluses. The Tor Project currently has a paid and contract staff of
 around 35 developers and operational support staff, plus many thousands of
 volunteers who contribute to our work. The ideal candidate will be
 energetic, unflappable and flexible, and will thrive in a highly-technical
 collaborative environment.

 This is a full-time, hands-on position, which can be done remotely or in
 our office in Seattle, WA. Flexible salary, depending on experience. The
 Tor Project has a competitive benefits package, including a generous PTO
 policy; 14 paid holidays per year (including the week between Christmas
 and New Year's, when the office is closed); health, vision, dental,
 disability, and life insurance paid in full for employee; flexible work
 schedule; and occasional travel opportunities.

 To apply, send a cover letter and your resume to hr at torproject dot org
 with the subject "Project Manager - Network." Tell us why you think you're
 the right person for this job. No phone calls please!
