Thanks Ryan/Pablo, I think that ‘job listing (open)’ seems fine. I agree with the other points.
As an aside, what do you think of the forum having a front-page section with link/shortcuts to some of the more important or popular tags?
I am imagining a ‘Popular/key tags’ section on the homepage with a list of tags and a search bar. It might help nudge people to use the wiki more. It might also increase access to posts that are important but not popular (e.g.,a new research, or open job post that gets little engagement and disappears under more the more interesting and common ‘hot ideas’ posts)
No, on the homepage. Maybe as something under pinned posts or front page posts? Imagine something like this as a section on the page, but with categories of tags (e.g., ‘job listing (open)’) instead of posts:
Thanks—let them know that I am happy to discuss if needed. The main logic is that something like this nudges people towards more topic focused than recency focused use of the forum and better promotes and leverages of our great categorisation system.

I went ahead and created the tags Ryan suggested:
needs funders
needs funding
I’ll add a brief description and tag some relevant posts shortly.
Needs funding seems quite similar to “Funding request (open)”. Maybe they should all be migrated to that format, e.g. “Cofounder request (open)”.
Thanks for the suggestion. Are you imagining a section at the beginning of this page or something else?

Thanks. I’ll mention your suggestion to the team.
