About Pulso


Pulso is a Latinx-led social enterprise dedicated to raising up and keeping the pulse on nuestra gente. We build deep digital relationships with Latinx folks through their phones in order to transform civic engagement and build political power.

  • Is highly entrepreneurial and thrives in a fast-paced, unstructured digital environment

  • Is eager to learn, iterate, pivot, and experiment along with the rest of the team  

  • Is a team-player, and comfortable working remotely

  • Has a sense of humor!

  • Flexible work hours

  • Health care after 3 months, with individual premiums fully covered and cost-share for dependents
