Volunteer titles at QOSF

CV have always been important and LinkedIn has become very important in our day and age. We get it and you should be able to indicate that you've worked or volunteered with us. However, we want to streamline this process and ensure fairness. No one should just invent random job titles and abuse the Quantum Open Source Foundation for their personal gain. With this document we would like to define some basic rules in order to streamline this process going forward.

Where to add your QOSF affiliation

On LinkedIn, there are three different subsections on your profile:

  • Experience,
  • Education, and
  • Volunteer experience.

QOSF is a Canadian not-for-profit and all of the work you've been doing with us is considered volunteer work. Hence, please only add your QOSF affiliation to the Volunteer experience section on your LinkedIn profile. We kindly ask you to not add it to the Experience section since this incorrectly implies that you were employed by QOSF. The same applies to your personal CV - only add your QOSF affilation under the Volunteering section.

Titles

The following is the list of official volunteer titles that we use at QOSF. Please do not use any other title on LinkedIn or on your personal CV.

Core Team Member

Core team members attend our regular bi-weekly QOSF team meetings and have assumed ownership of one or more of our initiatives. All of our core team members are listed on the QOSF website. As of March 2021, we have four core team members at QOSF: Michał Stęchły, Maggie Li, Tomáš Babej and Mark Fingerhuth.

Volunteer

This title applies to people who're helping QOSF with it's various initiatives, but are not members of the Core Team. This implies active involvement and working in close collaboration with the members of the Core Team.

Mentor

This title applies to all people that have been or still are mentors in the QOSF mentorship program. This title implies that this person has dedicated a considerable amount of their free time in order to mentor one or more quantum mentees on a variety of topics relating to quantum software.

Mentee

This title applies to all people that have participated or are currently participating in the QOSF mentorship program. It implies that this person has dedicated at least three months to a mentorship project which focused on one or more aspects of quantum computing research and quantum software engineering.
