Please summarize your relevant experience in welding, torching, machining, mechanics, hydraulics, automation, power electronics, hot metal work, CAD, CAE, machine design, and anything else related to prototyping of machines. Please also tell us how much pay you are looking for. This is a full time position, living on site, but we can also consider focused Dedicated Project Visits of 1 or more months in duration - pending a rigorous, focused plan and budget. We are looking for volunteers and paid positions.
Identify top priority organizations that have interest in open source products, distributive enterprise, DIY tools, hacking, collaboration, systems change, expanding human potential, and collaboration architecture.
