WHO WE ARE

ActBlue is a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating cutting-edge technology that fuels Democratic victories and enables progressive causes to thrive.

Our vision is simple: building change through the power of people. Since our founding, we've been building innovative solutions to revolutionize grassroots fundraising - if you've donated to a Democratic campaign or a progressive organization online, you've probably used our platform! We believe in putting power in the hands of small-dollar donors by helping thousands of groups - from local candidates to national movements - mobilize their communities and create a lasting impact. Every member of our team is deeply committed to advancing our shared mission and core values. Together, we are shaping the future of democracy.

THE OPPORTUNITY

The Security Team at ActBlue works to protect ActBlue from threat actors that might target ActBlue, our donors, our employees, and the campaigns and organizations that fundraise on our platform. Our security program is anchored in empathy for our stakeholders, which is a primary value for our team.

Corporate Security is the function responsible for safeguarding ActBlue's people and information. We run security operations and incident response - including the on-call rotation - own and operate ActBlue's SIEM and detection stack, secure our email and endpoints, deliver workforce security training and tabletop exercises, produce threat intelligence, and conduct employee investigations and sensitive matter reviews.

Employee investigations and reviews of sensitive matters are core to this function. This is senior-level work requiring independence, discretion, and strict confidentiality, as well as prior experience leading investigations. The role also touches related domains such as AI security, identity, and audit support, in coordination with other security teams.
