Language Engineer

About Oils

Oils is our upgrade path from bash to a better language and runtime. We’ve been awarded a 4th grant from NLnet, and our focus is to show that OSH can be the ONLY shell on a Unix system.

Job Description

If you like hunting down difficult bugs, and are skilled at Unix and Python, this could be a good fit. Most bugs are too hard for 1 person to fix by themselves, so communication is important. And writing good test cases is important. We’re also paying people to do polished writing, since we'd like to spread the word. Communication happens on Zulip, and we also have video meetings approximately every 2 weeks.
