Contribute to Find a Startup Job

Help us improve the platform, reach more people or simply send us an idea. Contributions can be as small as a feature suggestion or as involved as helping us build, market or grow the site.

Find a Startup Job is an independent project. Contributor roles are voluntary and unpaid.

Sales & Outreach

Help us connect with founders, startups, hiring teams, accelerators, communities and organisations that could benefit from Find a Startup Job.

Product & UX

Help us make the platform easier to use. This could include job search, startup discovery, filters, navigation, mobile experience or an entirely new feature.

Something else?

If you have another skill or idea that could make Find a Startup Job better, we'd still like to hear it.

You don't need to become a regular contributor

Contributing doesn't mean committing hours every week. You can contribute in whatever way makes sense for you.

  • Suggest one feature
  • Report a problem
  • Redesign one part of the website
  • Contribute some code
  • Help with a marketing campaign
  • Introduce us to a relevant community
  • Research an idea
  • Help us contact startups
  • Work with us on something over a longer period

If you think something could be better, we'd like to hear it.

Have you spotted something we should build?

You don't have to volunteer your time. If there's a feature, improvement or problem you've noticed, just tell us about it.

A note about contributing

Find a Startup Job is currently an independent project.

Contributor opportunities are voluntary and unpaid. Contributing does not create an employment, contractor or freelance relationship with Find a Startup Job.

There are no required hours and no expectation of ongoing work.

You choose what you would like to contribute and how involved you would like to be.

If the project develops into something where a contribution becomes an ongoing commercial role, that would be discussed separately rather than treated as a voluntary contribution.
