Engineering Manager

CTA is seeking an Engineering Manager to help lead and grow the engineering team behind PAD, CTA’s flagship data infrastructure platform serving progressive organizations across the country. In this role, you will be a player-coach: someone who leads and develops a team of engineers while staying connected to the technical work. You'll help set direction, remove blockers, and build the kind of environment where great engineering happens.

This is a meaningful opportunity to shape a high-impact product from the inside. PAD and our team directly enable campaigns, nonprofits, advocacy groups, and movement partners to use their data effectively. You'll work closely with product and operations leadership to translate strategy into execution, while ensuring the engineering team has the clarity, support, and culture it needs to do its best work.

About Us

Community Tech Alliance builds technology purpose-built for the progressive ecosystem. We take on the messy, complex work of data and software engineering so our partners can focus on what they do best: driving impact. Our flagship platform, PAD (Progressive Action Database), gives nonprofits, campaigns, advocacy groups, and researchers access to a managed data warehouse and analytics stack that would otherwise be out of reach. We're a small, mission-driven team of engineers, data practitioners, and product strategists — and we believe in democratized access to fantastic data tooling. 

Community Tech Alliance believes strongly that:

• Inclusive teams are strongest, and supportive work environments take investment, intentionality, and openness

• Empathy is the cornerstone of building smart technology solutions

• All team members should take ownership of the project and team's development

• Iteration is key, and smart solutions require action not perfection

• Nothing great has been built without making mistakes and learning from them
