JOB DESCRIPTION

UltraViolet (UV) is hiring a Director of Data and Technology to provide oversight over the organization’s data, technology, and analytics.

About UltraViolet

UltraViolet is a women-led gender justice organization, with an online community of more than 1.2 million members nationwide. UltraViolet is a multi-issue organization because the discrimination that women face is not singular in nature. Every day, we walk through the world and are forced to endure a variety of sexist policies, misogynistic attitudes, and violent behaviors that are often dismissed. We see this discrimination in the pink taxes that force us to pay more for everything from razors to reproductive health services; we see it in the gender pay gaps that become gender wealth gaps; we see it in the underrepresentation of women in leadership positions; and, we see it in the ways that corporations profit from sexist hate speech and harassment online.

The UltraViolet community is intentionally multi-racial, multi-generational and gender-diverse because we are not monolithic. What unites us is our shared belief that an inclusive, women-led movement, rooted in anti-racist feminist principles that centers the most marginalized among us, has the power to rewrite the written and unwritten rules of patriarchy.
