Help build
the GRID.

GRID needs people who write code, shape projects, document systems, welcome communities, organize gatherings, test assumptions, and make open-source work sustainable.

A different kind of contribution

This group is not for hosting machines, mining rewards, or selling compute. It is for the people who build, maintain, explain, coordinate, and grow the project itself.

There is more than one way to build infrastructure.

Join an existing stream, propose a focused project, or help turn an unfinished idea into maintained public work.

01SHIP THE COMMONS

Open-source engineering

Build the protocol, Mesh browser, CLI, SDKs, wallet, coordinator, explorer, web surfaces, developer tooling, and the systems that connect them.

  • +SDKs + integrations
  • +Testing + quality engineering
  • +Security review
  • +Release engineering
02MAKE IT LEGIBLE

Documentation + education

Turn a complex network into something people can understand, inspect, use, and build upon without needing an interpreter.

  • +Technical writing
  • +Tutorials + examples
  • +API references
  • +Developer education
  • +Diagrams + explainers
  • +Localization + accessibility
03KEEP THE SIGNAL HUMAN

Community stewardship

Welcome contributors, support healthy conversation, connect people to useful work, and help establish a culture worth joining.

  • +Community management
  • +Contributor onboarding
  • +Moderation + safety
  • +Support operations

04BRING THE NETWORK TOGETHER

OTG organizers

Help produce OTG gatherings, workshops, build nights, talks, demos, and local community moments where collaboration becomes real.

  • +Program + speaker curation
  • +Venue + production
  • +Volunteer coordination
  • +Workshops + hack sessions
  • +Local chapters
  • +Partnerships + sponsorships
05TELL THE TRUE STORY

Creative + communications

Give GRID a clear voice and visual language without sanding away the difficult, technical, open-source character of the project.

  • +Brand + visual design
  • +Product design
  • +Video + motion
  • +Editorial + newsletters
  • +Social + press
  • +Community storytelling
06MAKE THE WORK COHERE

Research + coordination

Investigate hard questions, keep priorities visible, triage issues, and help independent contributors move in the same direction.

  • +Distributed-systems research
  • +Economics + incentives
  • +Project management
  • +Issue triage
  • +Governance experiments
  • +Policy + open-source operations

Participation with responsibility.

01

Build in public

Work should be inspectable, discussable, and useful beyond a private roadmap.

02

Earn trust through work

Titles matter less than follow-through, judgment, documentation, and care for other contributors.

03

Protect the community

Technical ambition does not excuse hostility, manipulation, harassment, or extractive behavior.

04

Tell the truth

Represent what exists, what is experimental, and what remains difficult without manufacturing certainty.
