Some days you may be contributing patches to frameworks or working on one of the many gems and libraries Discourse maintains. The majority of the work you will do will be open source. Discourse is primarily a hosting company: some of your focus will be around improving our hosting infrastructure, resolving issues for customers, or assisting with customer-specific implementations and migrations.
