All job details in a pdf file WHO WE ARE

The Institute for Technology and Journalism (TUJ e.V.) is a non-profit organisation located in Berlin. We run the platform www.mobilsicher.de, providing consumer information on security and privacy of smartphones. Last year, we launched the „App-Checker“, our own open source testing system that monitors and informs the public about tracking activities in Android apps.

Funding for our projects is provided by the Federal Ministry of Justice and Consumer Protection (BMJV) as well as the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). WHAT YOU´LL BE DOING

You‘ll continue to develop our Python-based test system, fix bugs, and implement new features. You‘ll optimise our Appium-based test automation system and formulate solutions for different testing situations.

You‘ll maintain and manage our GitLab repository and coordinate collaboration with our external developers. Feel free to take a look at the source code here. WHAT WE OFFER

We‘re a small, friendly team with flat hierarchies and room for new ideas. You’ll enjoy flexible working hours, interesting tasks, and a lot of variety.

You‘ll work closely with the existing team and be involved in all activities concerning the project. Your contributions will have immediate relevance and practical impact as they are deployed to the App-Checker system. This way you’ll help shape one of the most socially relevant issues at the interface of technology, civil rights, and digital politics. ABOUT YOU
