Citizen Data's mission is to empower non-partisan, cross-partisan, and bipartisan groups with actionable data so they can unite Americans, bridge divides, and advance meaningful change.

The United States political ecosystem features some of the most sophisticated analytics operations in the world. However, most of these data-focused efforts are funded by, and work for, groups on either side of the political spectrum, leaving non-partisan, bridge-building efforts data-impoverished.
Citizen Data hopes to change that state of affairs with its own sophisticated data analytics setup orientated purely towards serving the public good. It works directly in close partnership with on-the-ground non-partisan organizations, helping them to take their impact to the next level.
With a range of tools that can help users find their supporters, understand public opinion, predict outcomes and more, the company is now a comprehensive option for organizations to meet their data needs. Funds raised in 2022 have been used to spearhead its latest phase of expansion, as well as accelerate product development.

Talented, fun, and good-natured group of people who are passionate about protecting and strengthening US democracy. The team takes the mission seriously without taking themselves too seriously. People are kind to each other, and respect for the need to rest is woven into company culture (and codified in company practices). This results in a really pleasant day-to-day working dynamic.

Citizen is among the only companies, if not THE only company, that is built from scratch to be a flexible, fast data and insights resource to pro-democracy campaigns and organizations. Because we're young, you'll have the opportunity to build brand new things from scratch and really get to own your solution long-term. Its fantastic to see your own hard work pay off for yourself and your team.

Leadership recognizes the hard work of all departments. Because its a small and growing company, your efforts are directly seen and immediately applied. You don't just build in isolation or on some minor improvement. You're directly contributing to core product and service offerings. Your efforts are seen and rewarded appropriately.
