Technology Hub
Product Vision
"To guide outdoor enthusiasts from discovery to leadership by connecting them to experiences, resources, and opportunities to give-back within The Mountaineers community."
Welcome to our Technology Hub! Our technology platform began with the launch of our website in 2014 and has continued to evolve and grow over this past decade. We continue to look for and invest in new opportunities to better meet our member & volunteer needs through our technology offerings.
Stay up to date on improvements
We value transparency and take pride in celebrating our progress as a community. To stay up to date on what we’re building, check out our Technology Changelog for a running list of improvements, and read our Technology-Related Blogs for highlights on major projects and milestones.
Another way to stay up to date on new improvements is to follow community-supported ideas through feedback.mountaineers.org.
Get involved & support
We pride ourselves on building our technology alongside our community, and your ideas help shape the tools we create. Have a suggestion to enhance the member or volunteer experience? Share it through our feedback portal where you can propose ideas, up-vote suggestions, and follow projects that matter to you.
We're always looking for volunteers with skills in web development, analytics, UX, technical project management, and more to help bring community-driven ideas to life. If you’re interested in contributing your expertise or have a cool project you’d love to explore with us, reach out to devinl@mountaineers.org!
