Digital Technology Lead

About

Longwell Partners is a pro-democracy communications firm working on high-impact political projects like The Bulwark, Home of the Brave, and Republican Voters Against Trump. We run campaigns, build digital tools, produce videos, and invent new ways to reach and persuade people.

This role sits at the intersection of creative, technical, and strategic work. You’ll build websites, prototype digital tools, collaborate with designers, writers & strategists, manage hosting, experiment with AI & automation, and take ownership of technical decisions.

• Build and maintain websites for political and advocacy projects (~20% of the job).
• Prototype digital tools, data visualizations, and interactive features that help campaigns communicate.
• Collaborate with designers, writers, and strategists to turn ideas into polished digital experiences.
• Manage hosting, domains, and launches with an eye for stability and craft.
• Experiment with new technologies (AI tools, automation, analytics, creative workflows) to make our work smarter and faster.
• Take ownership of technical decisions across a wide mix of projects.

• Curiosity about politics, media, design, and tech.
• Clear writing and critical thinking.
• Experience building things for the web. Your tools are your choice.
• Comfort moving between disciplines and learning on the fly.
• Ability to explain technical ideas clearly to non-technical teammates.
• A track record of shipping work that’s thoughtful, functional, and well-crafted.

• APIs, automation, analytics, data pipelines, or lightweight engineering.
• AI tools for design, content, or technical workflows.
• UX, prototyping, or creative coding.
• None of these are required. We care about capability and curiosity more than credentials.

• Benefits: Generous PTO, 401(k) match, 100% employer-covered medical.
• Schedule: Full-time, in-person in Washington, DC.
• Environment: Fast-moving, mission-driven team working at the edge of politics, media, and technology.
