We are recruiting a master builder to test and demonstrate the usability of GVCS tools in the construction of state-of-art housing and other infrastructure at Factor e Farm.

We are particularly interested in those people with diversified experience set. Experience in standard construction techniques is a baseline, but should be complemented with quick learning ability of nonstandard and natural building techniques. Basic familiarity with equipment maintenance, repair, torching and welding is also desirable. Construction management skills are a plus.

The builder is required to document progress openly with a daily log and vlog on the wiki (see Marcin Log for an example) using an automatic upload platform such as an Android smart phone.
