Current team

@Barak Gila

  • Hats: CEO, ops, finance/revenue, product, back office, backend eng (very little is needed here)
🔒 … there are a few coconspirators … still pending

You?

Most high-priority skills we need for the team

👷
Cofounder / Founding Engineer (American Politics Company)
  • Ops
    • You can code in SQL and Python (at least a little)
    • You’re an organized, detail-oriented fiend
    • You can do anything (recruiting, ops, accounting, finance, etc), perhaps after teaching yourself or asking for help
  • Well-connected political types
    • Ideally think-tank / neoliberal / nonpartisan background, but flexible
    • Should understand how one or more of Washington, Sacramento, NYC, SF, etc. work
    • Should be familiar with Citizens United, Scalia, Matt Yglesias; be concerned about political polarization, etc
  • Marketing / advertising
    • A creative director for the ad agency side of the business
    • At the beginning, you’ll be critical in making killer, edgy, fun, controversial ads
    • You’ll also shape our ad generator product and be the point of contact with external folks in the advertising / marketing worlds

How else you can help


We’re willing to bootstrap, but getting capital and help from angels and VCs will help us build the platform faster. 👼

  • welcoming ideas, feedback, and hate
