The role

We are looking for a volunteer software and web developer with advanced AI-assisted coding and web design skills to help maintain, expand, and optimize our digital platforms: the keepaisafe.org website, KAIS Academy, our safety tools, and other projects.

Our development workflow is fully AI-native. We build with Claude Code inside VS Code, host on Railway, and run our DNS and edge through Cloudflare. You will work directly with organization leadership, ship real features to a live production site, and help shape how a modern nonprofit uses AI to build and operate its technology.

• KAIS Academy (education platform): https://academy.keepaisafe.org
• AI toy safety ratings: https://keepaisafe.org/toy-ratings
• Live AI incident dashboard: https://riskmonitor.keepaisafe.org
• Gaming safety scanner: https://gamingsafety.keepaisafe.org

What you'll do

• Build new pages and features for keepaisafe.org (React 18, TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind CSS, Express)
• Help expand KAIS Academy, our education platform
• Improve and extend our safety tools, including toy safety ratings, live AI incident monitoring, and gaming safety resources
• Optimize page speed, Core Web Vitals, and on-page SEO
• Support deployments on Railway and configuration on Cloudflare
• Use Claude Code with VS Code as a core part of the daily workflow, and help refine our AI development practices

What we're looking for

• Strong experience with modern web development (React, TypeScript, Node.js or similar)
• Hands-on experience using AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar) as a core part of your workflow
• Solid web design skills: responsive layouts, accessibility, and attention to visual detail
• Self-directed and reliable; able to own features from idea to production
• Able to commit consistent volunteer hours each week (schedule is flexible)

Nice to have: Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui, Framer Motion, PostgreSQL/Drizzle, Railway or Cloudflare experience, SEO and analytics familiarity, and an interest in AI safety or child protection.

What you'll receive

• A premium seat on our Claude organization plan (6.25x more usage than the Claude Pro plan) for use in your volunteer work
• A portfolio of shipped, production work on a live platform serving parents and educators worldwide
• Deep hands-on experience with a fully AI-native development workflow
• Direct collaboration with nonprofit leadership and real influence over technical direction
• The chance to make a meaningful contribution to protecting children in the age of AI
