Hey there, some personal news: I've decided to move on and am therefore looking for a new job starting July.
I loved serving as a program manager with open source projects involving some of the most brilliant software developers out there.
In a future job, I'd like to continue working near the intersection of open source, funding, business, policy and the societal impact of digital technology. But that's a small niche and so I hope that this post might open some doors through my contacts here. Are there OSS foundations or (non-) government orgs looking for staff?
Being a software developer at heart, I have been excited about tech all my life and later found myself involved in various software projects and business ventures big and small. I speak both fluent Nerd and fluent Business and frequently helped translating between the two during my career.
I'm aware that my requirements are a strong filter: Part-time and fully (or at least mostly) remote, German timezone. I'm also fairly unenthusiastic about the current generative AI / LLM hype and would prefer to work outside of that bubble.
If you have possible leads, I'd be grateful to hear about it. Thanks in advance and thanks for sharing.
