I’d love to join your network as a member of one of the cooperatives. I haven’t worked in a cooperative before, and now I’m very much attracted by their egalitarian nature, the prospect of taking part in making decisions and of doing good work that makes people’s lives better – I noticed a lot of your clients are non-profits and other (non-tech) cooperatives.
As for what I can offer: I’m a freelance programmer with 7 years of experience. I’m especially proficient in frontend web development with React and Redux, but still quite versatile, with experience in backend and desktop. I’m also open – and would actually prefer – part time work (is it compatible with the cooperative model, by the way?). The only problem is I’m not located in the UK and can only work remotely.
I’ve examined the list of cooperatives, and the ones that are doing a similar kind of work to what I’m skilled in are:
- Go Free Range
- Cooperative Web
- Outlandish
- Tableflip
- Agile Collective
- DTC Innovation
Finally, here’s my resume:
And here’s a recent example of my work:
(at first I’ve sent an application to contact@coops.tech, so you might have seen my email before, but one of the members suggested to also post it here)
