We are looking for an additional Captain, an Executive Coordinator to support the Captains, and a PR Coordinator to build our brand distribution network.

##Captain Description
14+
Jesse and Maddie are both expecting new members to their families in January. Your role will be to internalize the vision for Code for San Francisco and maintain an overall understanding of all of the brigade’s moving parts. We have purposefully created these new Core Teams in service of better brigade outputs and to avoid siloed actions. During January-March/April (at least), you will support all Core Teams, coordinate communication as appropriate, and remove blockers as needed. When the brigade stops moving forward, you must inspire and work with others to break that stagnation.
15+
16+
Functionally, you will work with the Executive Coordinator to handle any and all tasks that others cannot fulfil, no matter what they are, in order to sustain and advance Code for San Francisco’s efforts. You will likely be the first to arrive and the last to leave, you will direct people with questions to the appropriate Core Team, and you will provide counsel and advice to folks who simply need to connect with someone at Code for SF.
17+
18+
Other duties include:
19+
- Build and maintain a respectful and productive relationship with municipal partner and local government.
20+
- Be ultimately responsible for all activities involving Code for San Francisco
21+
- Commit to making your Brigade look like the community the Brigade is in.
22+
- Commit to upholding Code for America Code of Conduct and Brigade Code of Conduct / Values
23+
24+
###Relevant Skills
25+
- CEO, Executive Director, or Project, product, or program management background
26+

29+
- Quick, calm, and collected thinking

- Patience
31+
- Coordination skills
32+
33+
###Commitment
34+
- There is a 1-year minimum commitment for this position
35+
- If accepted, you must work to find a replacement should you leave or step down
36+
- Attend in-person monthly Core Team coordination meeting
37+
- Attend monthly meeting for Onboarding Team members (coordinated among your team)
38+
- Attend hack nights and Brigade events that generate new members, such as hackathons
39+
- Available for 20+ hours of communication per month outside of Hack Nights on Core Team and external coordinating efforts
40+
41+

45+
- Core Team member happiness

59+
60+
Understand that your role is one of the most critical in the organization, even if it may not always be recognized as such. The Executive Coordinator makes things happen. During meetings, which you will help to keep on schedule, you will guide the Core Team from ideas to concrete, assigned tasks with deadlines. During Hack Night, you may that may mean facilitating a portion of the evening's activities, protecting team members from distractions (especially our busy Captains), working on the future of the Brigade, project management of everything that's not hack night projects, or whatever else needs to be done.
