AboutGoodParty.org:
GoodParty.org is on a mission to make people matter more than money in our democracy by empowering independent candidates to run, win, and serve. Our AI-powered platform provides free tools to independent candidates to run their campaigns, connect with voters, and serve their communities effectively.

In 2024 we empowered 3,444 independent candidate wins across 48 states from all across the ideological spectrum. The only things our elected officials have in common is that they prioritize people over parties and community over corporate interests. In 2024, 40.3 million voters (26% of all voters) cast a ballot for our candidates. We’re not a political party, we’re a platform and a movement to democratize democracy.
Founded by serial entrepreneur Farhad Mohit ($1B+ in exits, including Flipagram/TikTok and Shopzilla),GoodParty.org is building solutions so we can have a truly representative democracy where society’s biggest problems are solved.

Identify and maintain pixel-perfect, site-wide design standards to ensure a consistent and engaging user experience.
Collaborate with our lean, agile team working directly with product, design, and QA teams.
Report directly to the CTO, contributing to strategic decisions and the overall direction of our technology stack.
Who we’re looking for:
A passionate engineer ready to tackle the audacious challenge of re-coding our democracy for Good.
Strong JavaScript skills, with experience in React.js and knowledge of API best practices.
Excellent CSS/SCSS skills, capable of creating accurate, responsive designs.
Proven track record with 8+ years of relevant full-time work experience, ideally within a fast-paced 0-to-1 environment.
Active interest and experience in using AI, LLMs, and automation of tasks through AI.
Experience building design systems using component architecture.
Advanced technical and analytical skills to diagnose, isolate, and resolve problems.
Strong communication skills and the ability to work well with others in a collaborative environment.
Ability to work independently and collaboratively to iteratively solve problems in real-time.

Verify Employer Thoroughly
Research the company's identity thoroughly before applying. Check for a professional website with contacts, active social media, and LinkedIn profiles. Verify details across platforms and look for reviews on Glassdoor or Trustpilot to confirm legitimacy.
Never Pay to Get a Job
Legitimate employers never require payment for applications, training, background checks, or equipment. Always reject upfront payment requests or demands for bank details, even if they claim it's for purchasing necessary work gear on your behalf.
Safeguard Your Personal Information
Protect sensitive data like SSN, bank details, or ID copies. Share this only after accepting a formal, written job offer. Ensure it's submitted via a secure company system or portal, never through insecure channels like standard email attachments.
Scrutinize Communication & Interviews
Watch for communication red flags: poor grammar, generic emails (@gmail), vague details, or undue pressure. Be highly suspicious of interviews held only via text or chat apps; legitimate companies typically use video or phone calls.
Beware of Unrealistic Offers
If an offer's salary or benefits seem unrealistically high for the work involved, be cautious. Research standard pay for similar roles. Offers that appear 'too good to be true' are often scams designed to lure you into providing information or payment.
Insist on a Formal Contract
Always secure and review a formal, written job offer or employment contract before starting work or sharing final personal details. Ensure it clearly defines your role, compensation, key terms, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings or scams.
