You have a passion for helping churches. We have a leading Church Management Solution (ChMS) with a rapidly expanding REST API. Imagine what we can do together.

We want to help our church partners do more, but we cannot (and should not) build every solution. The right answer is to let people integrate with Fellowship One and extend it to solve problems that they know the most about. Our REST API is at the center of this strategy. So are you.

You are critical in several ways:

• You help churches get the most from the REST API. They may have their own developers. They may engage a web development company, a freelancer, or volunteers. You give them the help they need to be successful. Sometimes it’s a conversation. Sometimes it’s a code library you found or developed yourself.
   
• We have friends in the industry that provide complementary solutions and want to integrate with Fellowship One. You help them understand what the REST API offers and how best to use it. You are there for technical guidance when they need it.
   
• You help us build our own solutions. Where there is a lot of interest in integration with specific partners, we may do that ourselves using the REST API. You will help develop these applications. Sometimes, you will do all of the coding and testing yourself. Other times, you will share that work with a distributed team.
   
• You provide useful feedback to the Product Development team about the API. You observe first-hand what people struggle with and clearly communicate what will help drive adoption.

Why you are the right person:

• You are passionate about helping churches with technology.
• You develop applications using a variety of web technologies (Ruby on Rails, PHP, etc.).
• You have consumed REST APIs. You know and love the principles of REST. You evangelize web standards.
• You are great at helping people across a wide range of experience and skills. You empathize. You can quickly detect where they are and engage them appropriately. Not too basic. Not too advanced.
• You are fantastic problem solver. Anyone can identify problems. Fewer can recommend solutions. Fewer still can solve them. You are in that last camp.
• You are self-motivated and accountable for your work.
• You have excellent written and verbal communication skills.
