States Analytics Lead

We’re hiring! Are you fired up to elect Democrats up and down the ticket?

The Democratic National Committee’s Tech Team is seeking an States Analytics Lead to support our ongoing mission of empowering Democrats up and down the ballot to win more elections by running effective, data-driven campaigns.

In this role, you will be a people and technical lead. You will be responsible for coaching and developing the states analytics team and managing strategic analytics projects to completion. You’ll be part of the Data team and report into our Analytics Lead.

We are a fully remote, distributed team living in 19 states and from a variety of backgrounds. We are a team that values clarity over complexity, curiosity over ego, and sustainability over burnout. We believe good ideas can come from anywhere, that accountability and empathy can coexist, and that work should feel meaningful without consuming your whole life. We believe deeply in the promise of breaking the boom-bust cycle of political tech work and building technology infrastructure that will support campaigns from cycle to cycle and will improve with every iteration.

We’re looking for a strategic, analytics-minded leader who will shape the way the DNC Data Team provides support to campaigns up and down the ballot. You will lead a team that turns data into insights that inform decision-making, and builds systems to help Democrats leverage data at scale to win in 2026 and beyond.

In this position you will…

• Lead a team of Analysts working to support coordinated campaigns across the country, as well as the DNC’s national organizing efforts and voter registration program. You’ll be a strategic leader, manager, and coach as we build out this team and shape how we support campaign programs throughout 2026.
• Work closely with the DNC’s Organizing team to develop a reporting roadmap for the DNC’s states and voter registration programs; work with Analysts to develop and maintain these reports over the course of the cycle.
• Work with Analysts to communicate national expectations on topics such as voter contact universes; work with the Organizing team to hold state Data teams accountable to those expectations, including creating scalable systems and documentation for evaluation.
• Lead communication of regular updates from the states analytics team internally during cross-departmental DNC meetings, as well as externally with sister committees, coordinated campaigns, and other stakeholders.
• Collaborate with other leaders across the DNC Data & Tech Teams; identify opportunities to build sustainable infrastructure and efficiently address shared challenges.

We don’t need candidates to check every box on this list. Think of these qualifications as a guide rather than a strict set of requirements. If you’re excited about the role and feel like you can thrive on our team, we want you to apply!
