We have funding initially for part-time work, and hopefully it will grow into full-time work. Please spread the word!

This job is for the development and maintenance of the flash proxy circumvention system, with a focus on deployment and getting tools in the hands of users: https://crypto.stanford.edu/flashproxy/ https://gitweb.torproject.org/flashproxy.git/ If it goes well, we might have you branch out into improving usability and deployability of other Tor pluggable transports.

Applicants must be familiar with Python, JavaScript, and web technologies, particularly WebSocket. You will do usability testing and be in charge of producing binary packages of client software for GNU/Linux, Windows, and OS X. The system's supporting infrastructure is already in place, but may require changes depending on the future development of the client programs. There also is the potential for the development and implementation of new covert rendezvous methods that may have broader use outside the flash proxy system.

You will be assisted and mentored by David Fifield, the primary developer of the flash proxy software and co-author of its research paper, and all-around good guy.
