Streetmix is a fun and friendly way to play with streets. City planners and local bike/pedestrian advocates are some of the people who use Streetmix to quickly create new ideas and proposals for real street improvements. We're used by the New York City Department of Transportation, Transport for London, San Francisco Municipal Transportation Authority, and professionals like walkability consultant Jeff Speck and transportation planning firms such as Nelson\Nygaard, Kimley-Horn and more.
But first and foremost, we designed Streetmix to demystify this process and make it accessible for all, and that is why local residents, working to improve streets in their own neighborhoods, have used Streetmix for their own advocacy and communication work.
- Twitter: We're looking for applicants that are eager to apply their programming skills to building civic technology and user interfaces that demystify a political, democratic process and to encourage more participation and collaboration within a community to design public space. We will be applying best practices in modern application architecture (with Javascript/Node.js) and user interface engineering to build a simple, responsive, and performance optimized user experience. Interest and experience in UI design, SVG and canvas rendering, databases, and open data are a plus. Candidates should be comfortable with HTML/CSS/Javascript and familiar with either MongoDB or Postgres.
