This is a call for interest by Oslandia for C++ developers having QGIS and/or Qt skills. We offer paid contracts for code reviews and contributions.
Beyond our own code reviews by Oslandia employees who contribute to QGIS, we want to set up direct code review contracts for developers in the community. The aim is to:
- respond to the high level of activity in terms of pull requests (by Oslandia contributors and others) and therefore the need for review
- encourage review efforts in general
- promote growth in the number of reviewers and, ultimately, core committers
Oslandia is therefore offering paid contracts for developers, aimed at:
- active members of the QGIS community who are likely to work on a certain number of Pull Requests
- or C++ and Qt developers who are likely to work on C++, Qt, 3D issues, etc.
Please note that this is not a community initiative led by QGIS.org but a specific initiative of the Oslandia company. Oslandia is the contractor and remains the decision-maker on the work to be prioritised under these contracts. The work carried out by the contractors must comply with all the written rules of operation of the QGIS project. Funded reviews carry no special status, priority, or expectation of merge
In the case of an expert from outside the QGIS community, we are committed to making the necessary efforts to integrate them into the QGIS community.
Contracts will be based on a negotiated hourly rate and a maximum number of hours per contractor.
We require a commitment to responsiveness in exchanges within the PRs and an initial agreement to review the various PRs with a determined schedule for action.
The contractual conditions also include:
- compliance with the QGIS code of conduct
- a constructive approach to all interactions
- actively benevolent behaviour
- justification of proposed changes
- compliance with all explicit QGIS rules
We are offering 10-hour contracts to start with, which can be extended or adapted according to individual needs and capabilities.

Thank you for your proposals !
The selection of applications for contractualization is at Oslandia’s sole discretion. Depending on the number of applications received, justification will not necessarily be provided. However, we are available for any additional requests or discussions.
Oslandia’s commitments:
- to act in the interests of the QGIS project
- to involve QGIS contributors
- to ensure compliance with all written rules for contributing to the QGIS project
- to provide a clear contractual framework
- to establish a relationship of trust
- to approach all relationships in a constructive and discussion-oriented manner
- Paying for services on time
