About Pulso

Pulso is a Latinx-led social enterprise dedicated to raising up and keeping the pulse on nuestra gente. We build deep digital relationships with Latinx folks through their phones in order to transform civic engagement and build political power.

Pulso attracts and engages Latinx folks through our innovative Latinx history and news service, which is based on Facebook Messenger. With this daily relationship and by telling the stories that have shaped our community, Pulso connects U.S.-based Latinos/as/x with our history and encourages subscribers to take action on critical issues, register to vote, and to cast their votes on Election Day.

To see the digitally-based service we’re building, search for “Project Pulso” in the Facebook Messenger app. You can also learn more about our work at https://projectpulso.org/.

Pulso is a project of Accelerate Change (AC), a nonprofit media lab dedicated to catalyzing new scalable and sustainable digital media models for citizen engagement. See “The Secret of Scale” for more on AC’s model for scalable citizen organizing read and see “The Promise of Lean Experimentation” for AC’s approach to experimentation using Lean Startup methodologies and other business strategies, both from the Stanford Social Innovation Review.

About the Position

We’re looking for an experienced digital product leader to guide Pulso’s digital product and tech as Pulso scales. As Director of Product and Tech, you’ll develop and manage digital products, campaigns, and experiments for Pulso in collaboration across multiple platforms (Facebook Messenger bots, Instagram, Snapchat, Tiktok, podcasts, etc.) and teams. This role would be a fit for someone who likes spending their time developing and managing large-scale digital products and campaigns involving a variety of stakeholders, but equally enjoys rigorous experimentation, data analysis, and being in the weeds with digital media tech. We are especially interested in solutions-oriented candidates who are comfortable working in a fast-paced start-up environment as we rapidly scale both our reach and our team.
