Movement Labs is an incubator and consulting firm that uses technology, data, and experimentation to stop fascism and build progressive power. We help progressives win and defeat MAGA extremists through year-round work grounded in research and real-world testing. Our team partners with leading advocacy groups, grassroots organizers, and electoral campaigns to develop innovative tactics, win elections, and shift power for the long term.

Requirements

• Shape the pipelines and integrations feeding our RCT platform and our foundational voter datasets: the APIs, replication, federation layers, experiment randomization, and the failure modes that come with running data systems for hundreds of partner organizations on a non-negotiable political calendar
• Extend our data platform and orchestration layer, and optimize it for cost, runtime, and reliability so it holds up during the elections, with millions of outreach attempts
• Lead projects that span multiple systems and teams — scoping, designing, and driving them to real milestones
• Hold the bar on quality — test and validate your own work, review teammates’ code, and mentor through that review
• Document and communicate — make your systems understandable to teammates, stakeholders, and non-engineers
• Rotate through on-call and rapid response, including evenings and weekends during high-stakes moments like election cycles

Benefits

• Excellent health, dental, and vision benefits
• 401(k) matching
