### High Priority Needs
- 👩💼 **Product Manager**
- We have a GitHub Project and many unorganized/unprioritized features, as well as ideas that haven't yet been made into issues. Starship needs someone to own the product direction!
- 👩🎨 **Designer**
- Like making eye-catching websites? Excellent! We are looking to create a beautiful landing page showing off Starship in all its glory. Helping design for Starship's brand is a great opportunity to try out new ideas!
- 👩💻 **Rust Developer**
- There is _a lot_ of low-hanging fruit when it comes to writing idiomatic Rust, designing effective Rust architecture, performance optimizations, cross-platform build optimizations, and more! I ([@matchai](https://github.com/matchai)) am a beginner to Rust. Come point us in the right direction!
