=A quick blurb about XinCheJian=
XinCheJian is a community run hackerspace located in the heart of Shanghai, without your support with time, workshops, donations and memberships we would not be able to keep the space alive and in the same form as it is today, think about giving back in any way you can and help alleviate the financial burdens of those few who are funding the space.
=Staff Jobs at XinCheJian=
As a staff member you’ll help run the space and share the responsibilities, along with making decisions in how the space runs and evolves, you’ll also be expected to join Staff meetings at least once a month. Only apply if you’re serious. Without the generosity of the current volunteers sharing tasks in their free time, it would be near impossible to keep XinCheJian alive.
