Details

The Feminine Intelligence Agency (FIA) is developing a modular ecosystem of self-help and discernment tools for women navigating complex psychological and social challenges — including neurodivergence, trauma, coercive control, cultural displacement, and other intersectional realities. Over the past year, we've worked with dozens of multidisciplinary student teams to build a wide range of toolkits and modules — from AI-powered relationship simulations to gamified diagnostics, from peer-led emotional regulation systems to education tools for power literacy. These components are powerful in isolation, but they now need to be unified.


This is a special, high-complexity assignment. What we need is not a feature builder, but a systems engineer or systems-thinking team who can audit the full scope of FIA’s work, understand its conceptual underpinnings, and propose a technical architecture that will bring cohesion, extensibility, and efficiency to a rapidly growing initiative. FIA can be thought of as a kind of Drupal for social technology — a modular, user-driven system meant to flexibly support the unique psychological needs of women whose lived experiences often fall outside mainstream frameworks.


This project will require significant ramp-up time to understand the depth and novelty of FIA’s ecosystem. Because we are pioneering a new field — with unique products unlike anything currently on the market — there is no standard playbook. The student(s) will be asked to synthesize a wide body of research, tools, and datasets and identify the architectural “fascia” (connective tissue) that can support modular deployment, consistent UX, and responsible data integration across components.


It is a rare opportunity for a creative systems engineer to lead platform-level thinking and design, producing high-level architectural diagrams, identifying technological requirements for cohesion and scale, and advising FIA leadership on what needs to happen next — operationally, technically, and structurally — to support this ecosystem long-term. The ideal candidate will be someone who thrives on managing complexity, designing modular systems, and translating visionary ideas into robust operational frameworks.

Deliverables

Systems Audit Report

A comprehensive summary of FIA’s existing toolkits, products, and workflows — identifying redundancies, gaps, and integration challenges.


Modular Architecture Blueprint

A proposed systems architecture that outlines how FIA’s independent modules (e.g., trauma diagnostics, chatbot simulations, peer support labs) can be integrated using a flexible, extensible framework (e.g., modular CMS-style design, API logic layers, or microservices model).


Information Flow + Data Logic Mapping

Diagrams or documentation showing how data, users, and functionality move across tools — with attention to consistency, user privacy, and functional interoperability.


Technology Stack + Infrastructure Recommendations

Suggested tools, platforms, or frameworks to support the proposed architecture, with reasoning grounded in scalability, accessibility, and long-term sustainability.


Operational Plan and Next Steps

Clear, staged recommendations for FIA leadership on how to begin implementation — including resource needs, team structure, and development priorities.
