Movement Labs is an incubator and consulting firm focused on using technology and experimentation to combat fascism and build progressive power. The organization partners to increase Democratic competitiveness in local elections through innovative political experiments, such as randomized control trials that identify scalable methods for voter registration, mobilization, and persuasion. Movement Labs specializes in training volunteers and developing new technological strategies to achieve tangible outcomes in elections, voter engagement, and progressive communication techniques. They offer services like texting for campaigns and support candidates, campaign managers, and organizations in optimizing growth and communications strategies.

📋 Description

• Design and implement scalable data architecture for targeting and engagement • Serve as technical partner to program teams • Extend our foundational datasets to facilitate new outreach strategies • Load-test our systems to prepare for elections • Maintain key datasets for polling images and precinct cross-matching • Develop standardized experimental frameworks for testing campaign effectiveness • Build AI tooling that makes our own team faster — QC agents for data deliveries, the evals to trust them, and context systems that keep our repos self-documenting • 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

🎯 Requirements

• Passionate about progressive politics and leveraging data, technology, organizing, and research to build political power • 3–6+ years of experience (Senior or Mid-level) in designing, building, and operating production data pipelines and integrations • Strong proficiency in SQL and Python, with hands-on experience across a modern data stack — cloud data warehouses (BigQuery or similar), a transformation framework like dbt, and an orchestrator like Dagster or Airflow • A track record of leading technical work across multiple systems or teams, and scoping ambiguous problems end-to-end • Sound judgment about when to refactor, when to ship pragmatically, and how to leave systems better than you found them • Strong written communication — you document what you build and can explain complex systems to non-engineers • Genuine commitment to the mission of stopping fascism and building progressive power, and comfort operating on a political calendar • **Nice to Have:** • Experience in the progressive, political, advocacy, or nonprofit sector — including awareness of c3/c4/PAC boundaries and the sensitivities of political and voter data • Familiarity with election results, voter file data, and the tools campaigns use to organize, text, and contact voters • Experience on Google Cloud Platform • Experience in on-call rotations and mentoring less-experienced engineers

🏖️ Benefits
