Web Developer: Resist Trump's Agenda

Use your web developer skills to fight Trump’s agenda. Rad Campaign, a social change digital agency, is hiring a full-stack Web Developer with at least 3-5 years of experience and focused primarily on Drupal and WordPress, as well as non-profit ECRM systems. This position is remote.

Oh, and did we mention that we’re pro-pups and pro-cats at work and that we highly encourage fur-baby daily appearances on Zoom.

If you're looking to use your coding skills to help stop the world from imploding and team up with the best nonprofits and campaigns around (National LGBTQ Task Force, Brady Campaign, Clean Water Action, Communications Workers of America, National Organization for Women, and a whole lot more), you will love working at Rad.

So much in the world is at stake right now. For us, it’s personal, and it’s the organizations that we get to team up with every single day that can help change the future and right this ship. We are relentless in our pursuit for social and racial justice, as well as laws and policies to support reproductive rights and bodily autonomy, 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 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 Web Developer and be part of a movement.

As a Web Developer, you’ll collaborate and be part of an established and talented team of web developers, project managers, strategists, designers who are supportive of each other. You’ll create custom solutions for client needs, and work with other developers to produce well-structured, well-documented code. We love nerdy stuff like automated continuous integration practices, containerized local development tools, and contributing to open-source projects.

If that sounds exciting, we want to hear from you!

Job Responsibilities:

• Building websites and understanding what it takes to create accessible UX, IA, and systems, and empowering the team to raise the quality bar.
• Work with clients and the Rad team to evaluate technical needs and propose solutions.
• Plan, document and draft functionality to meet clients’ needs.
• Collaborate with designers to plan out website information architecture and UX.
• Create engaging user interfaces using HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
• Write clean, well-engineered code.
• Implement custom website themes (Drupal, WordPress, etc.).
• Implement custom functionality within various open-source CMSs or other frameworks.
• Implement integrations with third-party services (social sharing tools, CRMs, email platforms).
• Conduct trainings with clients on how to add, edit, and manage content with the CMS.
• Assist in producing user guides for clients.
• Assist clients with technical issues.
• Estimate budgets, validated by past project analysis and input from team members.
• Pitch in to create wireframes as needed based on client discovery, goals, and priorities.

You should be rad and:

• Super creative with the ability to multi-task, meet deadlines (this is a biggie), think on your feet, and problem-solve.
• Confident working independently or as part of a team.
• Experienced with Drupal and WordPress site building and custom development.
• Fluent in HTML, CSS/Sass, JavaScript, and PHP. Experience with Python, Ruby or other languages is a bonus.
• Comfortable with Git and the command line.
• Familiar with local dev tools such as DDev, Lando, Docker, or Vagrant, and front-end development tools such as Webpack and Bud.
• Anticipate project challenges and seek out solutions before they become a problem. You document and share your assessment with the Rad project team and collaborate and ask questions when you need support and additional resources.
• Thrive on QC’ing your dev work.

Experience with JavaScript frameworks (e.g. Angular, Vue, React), non-profit CRMs like EveryAction, Engaging Networks, ActionKit, Action Network, Classy, and/or social network APIs is a bonus.

• LGBTQIA+ friendly
• Vegetarian-friendly

Rad Campaign is fully remote and offers flexible schedules though we do require that this position work in the United States Eastern Time zone. Need to pick your kiddo up at school in the middle of the day a few times a week - no problem. Want to go see a concert in the afternoon because your favorite band is performing - that’s cool too. As long as you communicate your schedule in advance and meet your deadlines, that's all that really matters to us.

This position is full-time with a salary of $90K. We also offer a quarterly bonus and monthly office supply reimbursement. We are currently a fully remote agency.

Our Values

Our nonprofit clients come from all walks of life, and so do we. We value diversity, equity, and inclusion; those values are woven into every aspect of our company—from the staff we hire to the clients we work with to the programs and campaigns we launch to help make the world a more just and better place to live. 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."

To apply, please send a cover letter, resume, and a code sample or samples you are proud of. Github links are strongly encouraged.
