We accomplish this mission by providing managed cloud services for interactive computing, by providing
development and technical leadership to researchers and educators that utilize this infrastructure for
specific communities, and by providing support for open source tools and communities in this ecosystem.

We have deep ties to the open source community and have been leaders and core contributors across dozens
of projects - in particular in the Jupyter ecosystem. We also have deep ties to research and education -
our team has spent years deploying infrastructure for universities, community colleges, and research teams,
and now we’re bringing this experience to a wider audience with 2i2c.

We believe strongly in communities that are inclusive, transparent, equitable, effective, and diverse,
especially 2i2c itself. We believe that our values should permeate everything about 2i2c, including the
work we do, the communities we serve, and our own organizational culture.

2i2c is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit project fiscally sponsored by Code for Science and Society.


## What you’ll do

- Ensures the reliable operation of the 2i2c infrastructure (leveraging production-ready cloud-based
tools such as JupyterHub, BinderHub, and Dask).
- Attends support-facing tickets
