   State Project Coordinator

   
   

   American Oversight is seeking an extraordinary candidate to coordinate a major new initiative to bring our investigative watchdog expertise to bear on the problem of voter suppression and the corruption of democracy at the state level. American Oversight uses state and federal open records requests, backed by aggressive litigation, to expose corruption in government. Now, in addition to American Oversight’s extensive federal anti-corruption mission, we are using the same tools to uncover the paper trail left behind when politicians, activist groups, and dark money conspire to entrench themselves in power by limiting who can vote. Secrecy makes their efforts possible. The evidence we uncover will inform the public, support civil rights litigation, and augment policy advocacy for change. As State Program Coordinator, you will be American Oversight’s internal and external hub for anti-voter suppression efforts, coordinating our litigators, investigators, and communicators with like-minded organizations and actors.

Develop and manage upward and downward communications about the state program to keep everyone informed and working together. Work with American Oversight management to coordinate efforts of American Oversight staff focused on state-based work. Read widely to stay abreast of relevant news and identify information germane to existing investigations or potential new ones. Cultivate relationships with other organizations at the state and national levels to identify potential lines of inquiry, understand local dynamics, and discover opportunities for impact. Participate in the drafting and review of open records requests. Review documents obtained through open records requests. Work with American Oversight’s investigations team and partner organizations to identify significant information in the documents we uncover. Work with American Oversight’s communications and investigations teams as well as partner organizations to leverage and publicize finds and create messaging materials. Represent American Oversight in meetings with coalition partners. QUALIFICATIONS Four or more years of experience in organizing or issue advocacy. Familiarity with working in coalitions or with partner organizations. A strong foundation in voting rights issues preferred. Excellent organizational and project management abilities. Demonstrated people management experience. Exceptional writing, research, and verbal communications skills. Sound judgment and analysis. Familiarity with open records laws or tools is helpful but not required. A passion for details and for seeing the full puzzle from a handful of pieces. An entrepreneurial spirit and passion for helping American Oversight build something new. Comfortable in an evolving startup environment. Ability to work effectively on multiple projects, balance priorities, and excel in a team-based, collegial environment is essential. Spanish language skills are helpful but not required.

Our average customer lives on less than $4 per day. We are tracking to serve 10 million people by 2021. The senior controller serves as a trusted member of the finance team, and is responsible for managing finances associated with VisionSpring’s sales teams in six countries and the New York office. The senior controller manages all accounting for a growing budget of $4.5 million and is responsible for ensuring compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP), annual budgeting, accounts receivable tracking, financial data analysis, report preparation, audit execution, and statutory compliance. They will be pro-active and methodical in maintaining consistent, transparent financials, and tenaciously strengthening controls as the organization expands. Based in VisionSpring’s New York City office, the senior controller reports to the chief finance officer and manages two finance associates (one in New York and one in Bangladesh).

    ABOUT YOU

    • You enjoy the mental gymnastics of managing finance and compliance requirements for both businesses and nonprofits, because we are both.
    • You see truth in numbers. You have a critical eye and are not afraid to be the first person to speak up if anything looks amiss. For you, organizational accountability is personal.
    • Your world needs to be predictable, so you make it so. Instinctively you create routines and timelines, and help others adhere to structure and efficient processes.
    • You can roll with punches. You expect some weeks will be more intense than others. You are ready to deliver at the highest level to foster the financial health of a growing organization. You have a “can do” attitude.
    • Friends would describe you as trustworthy and structured, smart with low ego, resilient and highly ethical.

    ABOUT US

    • VisionSpring is creating access to affordable eyewear, everywhere. Clear vision creates opportunities for increased learning, work, safety, civic participation, and quality of life.
    • As a social enterprise, social change motivates us first. Our focus on sales and revenue targets serves and advances our mission objective—to increase functioning, productivity, and income earning potential for our low-income consumers by correcting refractive error with eyeglasses.
    • We are working to transform the systemic dysfunction of an optical market that has failed to deliver eyeglasses—a 700-year-old technology—to 2.5 billion consumers in need of vision correction, most of whom live on less than $4 a day.
    • We serve low-income consumers, not as beneficiaries but as customers. Our customers expect a high-quality and affordable product, and they will spend limited discretionary income for the immediate and tangible benefits of vision correction.
    • By selling eyeglasses, we awaken new demand and seed a viable market. By selling new eyeglasses we are able to serve four times as many people per dollar input than the alternative of donating recycled ones. To efficiently scale, we must deliver each new unit with lower cost.
    • We run our business on both sales metrics and social impact measures. We exploit a range of organizational forms and practices to get the job done.
    • We believe in scaling our impact, not our organization. We are a lean team of doers.

    Osio Labs is looking for Node specialists to write tutorials on a variety of Node topics for our subscription website hey(node). This will be contractual work based on topical deliverables (e.g. per article, series, or course created). We are a fully distributed company so you will work from home (or wherever), set your own hours, and have scheduled online meetings with the team. Tasks will include:

    • determining which topics to cover and the scope
    • outlining potential articles and/or courses
    • creating new tutorials in written format for our platform

    You should be able to demonstrate your Node experience through at least one of the following channels: having written articles or created videos about the topic, delivered presentations at public events (meetups, conferences, etc.), or contributing to a community project related to the topic through code, documentation, issue queues, etc. We are looking for people who not only have specific technical knowledge about a topic, but more importantly understand the space well enough to efficiently find answers to gaps in their knowledge. We don’t expect someone to know everything about a given topic, but you should be able to learn as you go, building on a solid foundation of existing knowledge. We’re also particularly interested in people who can show active engagement with an open source community, whatever form that may take, i.e. not just code. Previous teaching/training experience is preferred, but not required. You’ll be working with our experienced training team to develop your technical knowledge into learning materials.

   Node.js Tutorial Writer

   
   

   Osio Labs is looking for Node specialists to write tutorials on a variety of Node topics for our subscription website hey(node). This will be contractual work based on topical deliverables (e.g. per article, series, or course created). We are a fully distributed company so you will work from home (or wherever), set your own hours, and have scheduled online meetings with the team. Tasks will include:

   • determining which topics to cover and the scope
   • outlining potential articles and/or courses
   • creating new tutorials in written format for our platform

   You should be able to demonstrate your Node experience through at least one of the following channels: having written articles or created videos about the topic, delivered presentations at public events (meetups, conferences, etc.), or contributing to a community project related to the topic through code, documentation, issue queues, etc. We are looking for people who not only have specific technical knowledge about a topic, but more importantly understand the space well enough to efficiently find answers to gaps in their knowledge. We don’t expect someone to know everything about a given topic, but you should be able to learn as you go, building on a solid foundation of existing knowledge. We’re also particularly interested in people who can show active engagement with an open source community, whatever form that may take, i.e. not just code. Previous teaching/training experience is preferred, but not required. You’ll be working with our experienced training team to develop your technical knowledge into learning materials. We strongly encourage underrepresented minorities to apply. We are committed to having a diverse team and an inclusive environment. To learn more about us, you can read our employee handbook.
