Our animal welfare charity is seeking an Algolia specialist to help our national pet rehoming service by optimising the search and display functionality from our website, showcasing the pets in need of new homes.

What will you be doing?

The Algolia Specialist will volunteer in 3 ways:

1) Ad hoc technical issues and queries:

We anticipate that we will call on the volunteer to help us with queries from time to time and to help with technical support issues that may arise.

2) Training:

It would be great if the volunteer could provide some technical use training to others, enabling the operational team to handle basic issues and queries going forwards.

3) Development:Using your sound technical knowledge of Algolia, and ideally, Bubble.io or experience of using Algolia with a similar type of database, we would like to explore how Algolia could optimise the search journey UX for adopters.

If you'd like to use your technical skills to support our cause, helping us to safely rehome pets throughout the UK, we would love to hear from you.

What are we looking for?

  • Technical expertise using Algolia search (ideally with Bubble.io or a similar platform)
  • Good communication skills (English spoken and written)
  • Curiosity for optimising and expanding the application of Algolia

What difference will you make?

Volunteering your skills in this capacity will directly impact the successful rehoming results for the charity.
