‍Overview

Daisychain is on a mission to support and strengthen grassroots movements. We build software that helps organizers reach supporters, coordinate campaigns, and reclaim time for what matters most: building relationships and growing power.

We’re looking for a software engineer who wants to put their technical skills to work on something meaningful: helping build the backend infrastructure and user-facing features that power modern, distributed organizing.

You’ll collaborate closely with our small, nimble team – including our CTO and CEO – to create high-impact software for mission-driven organizations. 

This is a chance to join an ambitious, early-stage company and build a powerful platform used by campaigns, nonprofits, and grassroots groups working for justice and democracy.

About Daisychain

Daisychain is a modern platform for mission-driven outreach and organizing. Our customers include progressive political campaigns, grassroots organizations, and ambitious nonprofits – people running distributed programs, building communities, and driving change.

Daisychain helps them bring supporter data together, automate repetitive tasks, and scale their outreach – without losing the personal touch that makes organizing powerful.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and ship features across our stack to solve problems our clients face in the field.
  
  
• Work closely with our CTO and product team to shape technical direction and product roadmap.
  
  
• Participate in code review, technical planning, and iterative development cycles.
  
  
• Build backend systems, frontend interfaces, and data tools to support scalable outreach.
  
  
• Help explore the thoughtful, responsible use of AI and automation to super-charge human-centered organizing work.
  
  

You Might Be a Great Fit If You…

• Have 3+ years of experience building full-stack web applications.
  
  
• Are fluent in a modern JS framework (React, Vue, etc.) and a backend framework like Express, Rails, or Django.
  
  
• Care deeply about writing high-quality, maintainable code – and collaborating with others who do the same.
  
  
• Thrive in remote, asynchronous environments and like working on small, focused teams.
  
  
• Are motivated by mission-driven work and excited to support the people powering real-world change.
  
  
• Bonus: You have experience with voter files, political tech, AI/ML, or large-scale data integration systems.
  
  

Our Stack

Ruby, Vue.js, Typescript, ClickHouse, and Postgres, deployed on AWS. We value simplicity, clarity, and momentum – and we back that up with solid engineering practices like continuous delivery, automated testing, observability, and code review.
