Impact Upgrade | Remote | full-time (W2 or contract)
Must have a fair amount of overlap with US timezones.
Impact Upgrade focuses on nonprofits and mission-driven businesses that serve people. We’re looking for a new team member to position as a fullstack developer, working on both client projects and internal products. We do have specialties and tools we often reach for, but we strive to be flexible generalists. So although there are a few areas that you need to have in your background, we otherwise bend over backwards to keep things simple.
Must-haves:
Development experience with Django/Python.
Expertise with vanilla Javascript and jQuery, HTML, and CSS.
Exposure to Bootstrap (we typically use Material Design for Bootstrap).
An emphasis on mobile-first, responsive design with digital accessibility as a high priority.
Experience with any RDBMS (we’re typically on postgres or mysql/mariadb).
Experience with API integration and automation.
A consultant’s mindset. Assume nothing you find has to be the way it is. Ability to keep eyes open for better/easier/simpler/cheaper ways of doing things, recommend them, and oversee improvements.
Ability to work independently in ambiguous and dynamic environments.
Understand that some projects demand enterprise/hardened development, others a looser get-it-done approach, and others a mix — and know when each is appropriate.
Previous experience as a remote team member.
Fun, easy going, and service-centered heart. Our primary focus is serving missions as well as helping organizations’ staff in any tech-centric way we can.
Nice-to-haves:
Experience working both on client projects as a consultant as well as direct product development.
Exposure to other full-stack ecosystems. PHP, Ruby on Rails, and others periodically come up.
Exposure to Stripe and/or Square.
Exposure to WordPress.
If that describes you, we’d love to chat and move quickly! Email brett@impactupgrade.com with an intro and resume.
For what it's worth, thank you for fighting this fight. Shortcut has been a fantastic tool for us as a direct result of it doing things differently and more naturally. Please don't change that!
Impact Upgrade solely works with nonprofits and missional businesses, mainly focusing on process automation and systems integration. If anyone is interested in a small team and big impact, we'd love to chat. https://www.impactupgrade.com or my email is in my bio.
SEEKING FREELANCER | REMOTE (but we're in the Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA area)
Impact Upgrade's calling is to be behind the scenes, using tech to enhance a nonprofit's reach and sustainability, as well as reducing the distractions and stress on missional leaders. Services include a mix of consulting, systems integration/analysis/admin, data management, ongoing support, "virtual CTO", and engineering.
We're in need of additional help to manage a wide variety of tools, analyze existing systems and design more efficient solutions, and directly support organizations. There are certain areas that come up frequently and we're looking for specialists on part-time contracts!
- Salesforce, but not as a development and communication platform. We typically limit it to the database, reporting tools, process automation, etc. If you understand schemas and Object Builder, Flow, basic Apex, basic permissions/roles/profiles, data imports/migrations, and commonly-used rules, we'd love to chat.
- HubSpot, typically focused on the basics + Workflows.
- WordPress, not as a web designer or content manager, but the ins and outs of plugins, hardening, and untangling.
We're also looking for support roles to help us onboard and maintain other commonly-used platforms: Twilio, MailChimp, SendGrid, Stripe, Trello/Monday/ClickUp/Asana, Zapier, etc.
(Although it'd be a little different in this setup, here's a full-time job description that at least gives an idea of the types of things we're looking for: https://www.impactupgrade.com/hiring#consultant)
