Our Field Organizer will work with our people around the country on the transportation campaign, setting them up for campaign tactics or reaching out to the media, public leaders and civic organizations yourself. You will sometimes need to travel — recruiting new groups to join a coalition, speaking in a church basement or town hall to win a new endorsement, organizing a news event or rally, meeting with an editorial board, or doing whatever else it takes to urge our public officials to do the right thing.
21st Century Transportation Campaign Director, U.S. PIRG, Based in Boston, DC, or Chicago
We’re hiring a Transportation Campaign Director to lead our national transportation campaign to advocate against spending so many public dollars on unnecessary highway expansion and to advocate for better public transit, biking and walking infrastructure, and repairing the roads we already have. Led by Millennials, Americans are driving less than they used to, but government policies haven’t caught up with the times. We aim to change that.

Systems Architect, Alta Bicycle Share, NYC
We at Alta Bicycle Share are looking for an engineer with the intellectual curiosity, attention to detail, and bottomless memory to understand how our bike share systems work end to end and help design them into the future. You don’t need to be in the code or circuit boards, but do need to understand how all the pieces fit together and pin down problems (and responsible parties) when they occur. As the systems develop, you will help roadmap their development and figure out who needs to do what to which part of the system to make it work.
Technical Project Manager, Alta Bicycle Share, NYC
