[GAINPOWER.org: Jobs That Are Left] Operations Associate at Resistance Labs (remote)

Resistance Labs is the leading peer-to-peer text political consultancy supporting Democrats nationwide. Our clients span both establishment and movement efforts, from senior Democratic Congressional leadership to non-profit organizations like Black Voters Matter. We leverage technology to help progressives run and win everywhere.  Resistance Labs focuses on finding new ways to use technology to achieve tangible outcomes in areas like voter registration, candidate recruitment, and elections. We're able to rapidly incubate ideas, train volunteers, and deploy teams for our clients. As a social enterprise, profits from our work fund our mission: to prevent fascism and rebuild the Democratic Party from the ground up. To that end, we have incubated additional efforts in the progressive toolkit such as Rapid Resist, supporting progressives in rural areas, and Contest Every Race, an effort to put a Democrat up against every uncontested Republican seat in the country.
