National Data Director
$9,500/mo + equityRemote (US)Start ASAP
Threshold is a relational organizing platform and start-up built for Democratic campaigns that utilizes artificial intelligence for handwriting recognition, data entry and voter file matching, as well as coaching volunteers as they rolodex and reach out to their contacts. We are a small, fast-moving team looking for a full-time National Data Director as we quickly expand operations.
What You’ll Do
•Optimize our processes for onboarding, data reporting to clients and internally
•Work with our team to optimize our existing AI features and to continue to expand our capabilities in this area
•Build and maintain target universes for campaigns using the platform
•Improve existing data workflows, reporting, and dashboards for campaign clients
•Lead some trainings and pitch meetings on Threshold’s tools

•Work directly with campaigns to understand their data needs and translate them into product improvements
•Support onboarding of new campaigns by loading and validating their voter data
•Most importantly, ensure QA across all of these areas and more

•At least two cycles of political data experience on Democratic campaigns or competency that exceeds such
•Deep VAN admin experience — has built universes, managed data, and trained organizers
•Highly proficient with AI coding tools and vibe coding: must be comfortable using Claude Code, and ideally Gemini, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, or similar AI-assisted development environments on a daily basis. If you’re not already using at least one of these tools, this probably is not the right fit
•Proficiency in SQL, Excel and Python
•Experience working with voter files from multiple vendors and states
•Understanding of voter contact programs, targeting, and how field programs use data
•Must be a truly motivated self-starter who can work independently and run through red tape like it’s 2008
•Understands that we are a start-up and in client services and that there should be no task too small
Bonus Points
•Experience with PDI, L2, or TargetSmart data
•GIS/mapping experience (QGIS or similar)
•Familiarity with relational organizing programs
•Comfort with data visualization tools (Tableau, Looker, etc.)
What We Offer
