Ideally you are someone who can both design and code, with an acute understanding of the cultural, design, artist, music and research spaces.
USB Club offers a lot of opportunity and potential, whether that's →
We see the product development and iteration of the next chapter of USB Club as one of the more exciting and expansive parts of this role. We have some opinions about where to start but we expect the right person in this role to be someone who can build upon our vision and help realize their own ideas to the highest degree.
USB Club ships a MacOS desktop app & iOS app that you can access when you own one of our USBs. You use the desktop app to share files and collect files from other people, both onto your USB and more generally on the network.
You can think of it kinda like Limewire or a torrenting platform of the early 00’s. Something that happens behind the scenes, something where culture moves silently - if you know, you know.
Our desktop app is an Electron app, our iOS app is a true native app. Our website is in Vue (although we’ll likely move to Next.js soon), and our API is in Typescript on PostgresQL.
We have some dashboards in Retool, and we integrate with Typeform & Airtable.
While we’ll have the support of Sanctuary Computer when necessary, we’re hoping this individual can hold their own in the code, and confidently ship production-grade features without much hand holding.
A big part of USB Club is the posters, campaigns, and general messaging strategies that we put onto the internet. A big part of what we do is to build culture around the network. Not only should we be thinking about the product as something that can be improved and more accessible and more utilitarian but also as something where culture happens behind the scenes.
Compensation for this role will be on an hourly basis (rates discussed via email, pending seniority and ability). The hourly rate here is $40 - $75/hr,
For now we expect that this is not a full-time role, although it will likely grow to in that direction. We expect that over the next 2 - 3 months a commitment of around 20 - 25 hours a week would suffice.
We see this role as a good starter project for starting to join garden3d, and work more closely with XXIX and Sanctuary Computer our client services business, across all of our client projects.
USB Club is an internal and cultural project so it's a really good place to get started working together, but we’d love to frame this as the start to a longer and more involved relationship, if that’s of interest!
If you’re interested in this role or others, please apply and select “USB Club Design Engineer” (among other roles you might be interested in!)
Kindly submit a complete and thoughtful application, including relevant links that help verify your work experience and identity. Applications with missing or insufficient information will not move forward in the review process.
Our team carefully reviews every complete submission, and we truly appreciate the time and effort you put into applying!
