Volunteers are core contributors whose work directly supports our mission of global compassion, collaboration, and action.\nAbout Solution Community: Solution Community is an international 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, pioneering an innovative social platform dedicated to enabling actionable change. With volunteers from over 70 countries, we are a testament to the power of global collaboration. Our team members bring experience from some of the world's most successful companies, including Apple, Toyota, Google, Netflix, Walmart, Meta, and many others.\nOur Mission: To foster a global community of compassion, uniting individuals and organizations to solve the world's social problems. We are the bridge that connects non-profits, businesses, philanthropists, and volunteers, empowering them to create meaningful change.\nOur Vision: A world united by collaboration, compassion, and action — where every person can thrive. At Solution Community, we are turning that vision into reality.\nPosition Overview: We are seeking a Volunteer AI Full Stack Engineer who builds production software the way top AI-native engineers build in 2026: primarily through AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, or equivalent), not the classical write-every-line, sprint-by-sprint engineering lifecycle.\nThis is a vibe-coding role in the best sense — you move at the speed of AI-assisted development, but you bring the engineering judgment to keep quality high. Most \"vibe coders\" ship fast and buggy; we need someone who ships fast and correct. You'll design, generate, review, debug, and deploy real features for our platform, working directly with our CEO (who builds the same way) and our engineering team.\nKey ResponsibilitiesAI-Accelerated Development\n\nBuild and ship full features — front end, back end, integrations — primarily by directing AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, etc.), not manual line-by-line coding.\n\nRapidly prototype, iterate, and deploy working software in days, not sprints.\n\nApply strong engineering judgment to review, debug, and harden AI-generated code — catching the bugs, security gaps, and architectural mistakes that typical vibe-coded output has.\n\nDesign clear, specific prompts and technical specs that get AI tools to production-quality output on the first or second pass.\n\nFull Stack Ownership\n\nDevelop and maintain responsive web applications, APIs, databases, and cloud services end to end.\n\nOwn your features from spec through deployment — no separate QA/handoff cycle to lean on.\n\nEnsure application security, performance, and reliability despite the compressed build timeline.\n\nCollaboration & Support\n\nWork directly with the CEO and engineering lead on architecture and priorities — minimal process overhead.\n\nDocument what you build clearly enough that another AI-native engineer (human or agent) can pick it up without you.\n\nMentor other volunteers on AI-assisted development practices.\n\nWhat We Are Looking ForRequired\n\nAdvanced, daily, hands-on proficiency with Claude Code, Codex, or an equivalent AI coding agent — able to architect, generate, debug, and ship full applications with AI as the primary development method, not an autocomplete assistant.\n\nSolid full-stack fundamentals (front end: React, Vue, or similar; back end: Node.js, Python, or similar) — enough to review, debug, and correct AI-generated code, not necessarily to write everything by hand.\n\nExperience with RESTful APIs and SQL and/or NoSQL databases.\n\nFamiliarity with a cloud platform (AWS, GCP, or Azure).\n\nA track record of shipping working software fast, with the discipline to test and verify it before calling it done.\n\nPreferred\n\nExperience with LLM/AI application development (OpenAI/Anthropic APIs, LangChain, RAG, vector databases, prompt engineering).\n\nDocker, Kubernetes, or other cloud-native deployment experience.\n\nPrior volunteer, nonprofit, or social-impact work.\n\nSkills\n\nStrong problem-solving and independent judgment — you catch what the AI gets wrong.\n\nClear written communication (specs, docs, async updates).\n\nComfortable operating with high autonomy and minimal process.\n\nGenuine interest in AI-native development and technology-driven social impact.\n\nApplication requirement\nInclude 2–3 examples of production apps or features you built primarily using an AI coding agent, with rough build time for each. This is the main filter — general dev experience without demonstrated AI-native speed will not be a fit for this role.\n\nWhat Success Looks Like\nFeatures shipped in days, not weeks, with bug rates comparable to (or better than) traditionally coded work.\n\nCode and architecture that the rest of the team can read, extend, and trust without a rewrite.\n\nReliable, secure, working software in production — not demos.\n\nGrowing autonomy: less spec detail needed from the CEO/lead over time as trust is established.\n\nWhat We Offer\nGlobal collaboration with leaders and strategists from top global companies.\n\nMeaningful impact on global causes and communities.\n\nA vibrant, multicultural team spanning 70+ countries.\n\nA supportive environment rooted in compassion, integrity, innovation, and collaboration.\n\nFlexible work with full autonomy.\n\nOpportunities for personal and professional growth.\n\nOriginally posted on Himalayas","description_format":"text","description_chars":5726,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Flexible schedule"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Nonprofits & Foundations","Social Networks"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-28T14:15:00Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-29T16:15:00Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":null,"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/solution-community-ai-full-stack-engineer-volunteer-unpaid","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/solution-community-ai-full-stack-engineer-volunteer-unpaid.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-30T04:27:01Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":6039,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-31T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4482985},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4482985"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsolution-community-ai-full-stack-engineer-volunteer-unpaid"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fsolution-community-ai-full-stack-engineer-volunteer-unpaid"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fsolution-community-ai-full-stack-engineer-volunteer-unpaid"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/solution-community-ai-full-stack-engineer-volunteer-unpaid\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsolution-community-ai-full-stack-engineer-volunteer-unpaid"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3400485}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":4482985,"detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3400485},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
