What typical responsibilities can I expect as a part time Django developer, and how do they fit into the larger development team?

As a Part Time Django Developer, your responsibilities often include building new features, maintaining or upgrading existing Django-based web applications, fixing bugs, and writing tests to ensure code reliability. You may also participate in code reviews, collaborate with front-end developers, and communicate with project managers or stakeholders to align on requirements and timelines. While you're working part-time, your contributions are typically integrated into the team's agile workflow, which allows for flexibility and clear delineation of tasks. This collaborative structure ensures your work directly supports both the immediate project goals and the overall success of the development team.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the part time Django position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Part Time Django Developer, you need a strong background in Python programming, expertise with the Django web framework, and experience in building and maintaining web applications. Familiarity with tools such as Git, relational databases (like PostgreSQL or MySQL), and deployment platforms is common, while Django-specific certifications can be a plus. Strong problem-solving abilities, effective time management, and the ability to communicate clearly with team members or clients are valuable soft skills. These competencies ensure efficient project delivery, seamless teamwork, and high-quality, scalable web solutions in a part-time capacity.

Join the WeVote Movement
WeVote has an open volunteer Senior Software Engineering position for an individual who wants to develop new skills with CSS/HTML, ReactJS or Python/Django, and use existing application development skills to help strengthen American Democracy. This position currently requires a minimum of 8 hours per week, and you could also easily spend 20 hours a week if you wanted to. WeVote is a great opportunity to get involved with supporting American Democracy.
About Us
WeVote is a nonpartisan get-out-the-vote nonprofit startup and a celebrated Fast Forward nonprofit technology grantee. WeVote is building a movement of over 150 excellent, passionate, part-time volunteers (starting with the founders) who build mobile technologies that will touch and mobilize millions of voters on Election Day. We believe that many voters are busy, distracted, and impatient. We have a goal of providing a positive voting experience that helps people decide how to vote. More information at www.wevote.us or on Twitter @WeVote.
What You'll Do
  • Our system is quite large and battle-tested. We have some very interesting and challenging engineering projects as we get ready for the 2026 elections.
  • Install our software on your development machine. We need full-stack engineers who can work in both React and Python, but if you prefer to focus on one or the other, we can work with you as well.
  • https://github.com/wevote/WebApp - React-based Mobile Website, or
  • https://github.com/wevote/WeVoteServer - Django/Python API Server (Mac/Unix only)
  • Work with one of our engineering teams (3-5 people) in weekly Zoom meetings, where we have code discussions, and look at new projects available to take on.
  • Tackle specific issues as well as larger projects

Who you are: Must haves.
  • You want to work with an established and successful team. You have a passion for the latest technology and are committed to strengthening American Democracy.
  • You have enough experience or aptitude that you can see 5-20 hour-long projects through to completion. We can support you and answer questions (with occasional pair programming), but the projects we have available could be called Intermediate to Advanced.
  • You are striving for personal excellence.
  • At least 8+ hours per week during our core team hours M-F 8 a.m. - 6 p.m. We understand not everyone is in the position to put in this many hours, but less time doesn't work for our team. Apologies in advance. (We have other engineering volunteers working 8-40 hours per week.)
  • A willingness to work with and support other volunteers.
  • Must be currently located in the US (We are a 100% remote/volunteer-from-home project)

Not required, but nice to have.
  • An academic degree or work experience in CS/Comp Engineering.

What You'll Gain
You will have the opportunity to touch the lives of millions of Americans and be part of a movement and product that will receive national attention. You'll gain an opportunity to grow within the WeVote movement and meet other volunteers who are like-minded and interested in building a valuable application to empower voters across the United States. You'll also gain valuable technical skills, have opportunities for leadership development, and expand your personal and professional network.
