Technical Project Manager: Stand Up For Justice 🔥


Rad Campaign is hiring a Technical Project Manager who has experience managing nonprofit website projects, especially on Drupal and/or WordPress. This position is remote.

Oh, and did we mention that we’re pro-dog and pro-kittens in the office? (Though, now that we’re virtual, the fur-babies make their daily appearances on Zoom.)

If you're looking to use your technical project management skills to help stop the world from imploding and team up with the best nonprofits and campaigns on this planet (Defenders of Wildlife, Brady Campaign, National LGBTQ Task Force, Communications Workers of America, Clean Water Action, Friends Committee on National Legislation, National Council of Jewish Women, and a whole lot more), you will love working at Rad Campaign. We are living in dire times where our lives, our democracy, and the planet are at stake. It’s the advocacy organizations that we get to team up with every single day that can help change the future and right this ship. 

Rad Campaign is deeply committed to organizations that want to change the world, and socially responsible businesses that want to claim their corner of it. We are relentless in our pursuit for social justice, especially laws and policies to support women and reproductive rights, the LGBTQ+ community, democracy, and human rights. We fight for legislation to protect this planet from the climate crisis. We mobilize people-powered movements across the U.S. to fight for labor reform, real healthcare reform, and much, much more. 

We also incubate our own nonprofit, Women Who Tech, where we fund underrepresented women-led startups who have been historically overlooked. We conduct our own studies on issues that are important to us, such as voter suppression, online harassment, online privacy, and the systemic challenges and barriers women in tech continue to face even after the rise of the #MeToo movement.

Come join our Rad team as a Technical Project Manager.

  • Familiar with CRM systems used by nonprofits such as Salesforce, Engaging Networks, EveryAction, etc.

Our Values:

Our nonprofit clients come from all walks of life, and so do we.

Our company is stronger because of our respect and compassion for the individual differences, lived experiences, and self-expression of our communities. We celebrate, advocate for, and create space for people of all races, ethnicities, gender identities and expressions, sexual orientations, nations of origin, ages, languages spoken, veteran statuses, religions, and disabilities. As Audre Lorde said, "It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences."
