Hey! Do you want to make the world a better place? Are you a designer or developer or designer-developer or ux-ui or hacker-journalist? (We love hyphens!) Well, have we got a job for you.

The news applications crew at NPR is looking for teammates. We work with news, music, and everybody else at NPR to dig through data, visualize information and build useful stuff for our audience.

* An understanding of the inner workings of the web

* Attention to detail and love for making things

* A genuine and friendly disposition

* Kick ass at making maps

* Love information design

* Know a thing or two about government data

* Want to teach us stuff!!

The newsroom is a crucible. We work on tight schedules with hard deadlines. That may sound stressful, but check this out: with every project we learn from our mistakes and refine our methods. It’s a fast-moving, volatile environment that will make you more awesome, every day.

Also, NPR is a really super place to work, and you'll make your mom proud.

Like what you're hearing? Take a look at [a few things we've built](/2012/11/21/weather-elections-roundup.html) and check out [our code on GitHub](http://github.com/nprapps).
