ActBlue

The people that you get to work with has to be one of the highlights of my time here at ActBlue. Through collaborations from group sessions we’ve been able to achieve major wins to help improve the efficiency of our donor workflows and tools.

Post 2020, I knew I wanted a job that allowed me to be near campaigns but not on the trail. Working at AB allows me to work with candidates across the Midwest, help party orgs build sustainable programs and manage a great team doing great work.

The people at ActBlue are the best! I work with an amazing group of intelligent, passionate people that I’m lucky to get to work with every day. The collaborative environment my team fosters together is my favorite part of my job.

ActBlue has incredible work life balance! Unlimited PTO is a lifesaver. I organize outside of work for local elections, mutual aid, & direct action, and sometimes that happens during the workday. Having sufficient time to rest also helps me be more motivated & enjoy work. The culture treats PTO with respect & no one is guilted for taking time off.

When I first started at ActBlue in 2019, I didn’t write any code. Thanks to the supportive, mentorship-focused approach within the organization, I was given the space to learn and grow my engineering skill set. I paired regularly with my peers, did coursework, and was empowered to take on projects outside of my comfort zone.

Our team is in the beginning stages of a Roles and Permissions overhaul for our Campaign and Non-Profit users. We will be adding the ability for these entities to grant varying access levels for different users. We hope this will allow for more users to be added to the platform, while keeping their data secure.

Fostering creativity starts with trust. I think innovation comes when we give individuals the autonomy to solve problems, not just build prescribed solutions. Our team collaborates early and often, empowers individuals to understand the why instead of just the what, and encourages risk through a culture of learning through iteration.

As a more "seasoned" member of ActBlue, I also appreciate the company's commitment to Diversity and Inclusion. I learn something new almost every single day. Working here is helping me be a better person.
