Civitech is a public benefit corporation dedicated to creating a fairer and more equitable democracy by building the tools and infrastructure needed to increase civic participation, empower Democratic candidates to win, and support the success of progressive causes.

Researchers, who can be based anywhere in the U.S., are responsible for researching a wide range of topics, including elections at all levels from national races to local special districts (such as the Illinois Metropolitan Water Reclamation District), candidates for selected elections (including their experience, qualifications, incumbent status, and issue stances), elected positions (such as the roles and responsibilities of offices like the Bergen County Clerk, eligibility requirements, and how to run for a position), and current office holders, including their years in office.

 

About our Data Acquisition Team: The Data Acquisition team is focused on building processes to extract, normalize, ingest, and regularly refresh large volumes of civic data. This includes data relating to current positions, officeholders, and candidates for office from the federal level to local special districts. This team also collects geospatial data to power our products and direct users to useful voting resources.
