As a Campaign Technologist at 38 Degrees, you will design and build software that helps our supporters and our colleagues campaign to create a fairer and more respectful country and a more sustainable world. You would be expected and must be willing to learn new languages in support of our Tech strategy. 

In the last few years we've built dozens of new tools, including:

• A custom CRM that holds data on the millions of members who take part in our campaigns

• A second CRM that holds data on MPs and other politicians

• A website that helped hundreds of our members organise their own local picnics and fundraising events to support their local parks

• A tool that guides people through the process of calling their MP to discuss a forthcoming Parliamentary vote

Together with our campaigning staff, we're always working on ideas for what to build next.  You'll need to communicate and collaborate with people across the whole organisation, and across our sister organisations in other countries around the world, to imagine, design, and build new features and new tools swiftly enough to take advantage of fast-moving political opportunities.

New projects are developed in a Typescript/Express/React stack, and our existing apps are written in Ruby (mostly Rails), use Postgres hosted on AWS RDS for most of our databases, and use Heroku to host most of our web applications.  If your previous experience is with a different tech stack but you'd enjoy learning ours next, then we're still interested in talking to you.

 

About us 

38 Degrees is one of the UK's biggest campaigning communities, involving over 2 million supporters who campaign to make the UK a better place. We’re united by a shared vision to create a fairer and more respectful UK and a more sustainable world.

38 Degrees is fiercely independent. We don’t take donations from political parties, or big donors. We’re run on hundreds of thousands of small donations from the public. This independence means we never have to hold ourselves back from taking on those with power and can truly listen to our supporters.

Why you’ll want to work here 

The 38 Degrees culture is honest, kind, supportive, courageous, and respectful. We move fast, and frequently change plans to respond to events. We work hard but we also have fun. We regularly enjoy team away days and social hours. 

Benefits include: 

27 days holiday per year (plus bank holidays); Office closure between Christmas and New year; 9-day fortnight (office closed every other Friday); 4pm closure on the alternate Friday; Flexibility to work 90 days per tax year (30 day maximum per travel in any location as per approval process); one month paid sabbatical leave after 5 years of service; 

Employer pension contribution; 24 hour employee assistance programme; Enhanced family leave policies; Cycle to work scheme; employer paid annual flu vaccination; Rental deposit loan; Contribution to eye tests/glasses; Learning and development budget

We’re especially keen to hear from people who’ll bring lived experience of the issues we work

on and who’ll make our team more diverse as a result. So if you’re Black, Asian or from any

other minority ethnic group, if you’re disabled, LGBTQIA+, or if you’re from a working class

home, your application will be especially welcome. And thanks to our flexible home working

UK. We’re keen to continue diversifying geographically, so that we’re rooted in our supporters’
