  • EDGI is hiring a part-time FOIA Repository Manager. The environmental FOIA repository was launched in 2020 as a collaborative project of Toxic Docs and the Sierra Club in order to offer a publicly accessible, keyword-searchable collection of the federal documents obtained by over twenty green and open-government organizations under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
  • The FOIA Repository Manager will work closely with our partners at ToxicDocs and will be responsible for (1) preparing docs submitted by participating groups for upload into the repository; (2) liaising between participating groups, consolidating and expanding our network of NGOs doing FOIA work; and (3) analyzing and communicating findings related to the repository, FOIA, and other policies.
  • This is a part-time position with an estimated commitment of 10 hours per week.

  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team
  • Demonstrated organizational skills, including a strong command of file management and cloud services;
  • Ability to use Linux command line and some background in the AWS ecosystem
