Chief of Staff

hace 11 días

Los Angeles

Organization: Governments, landlords, employers, and other powerful actors use artificial intelligence (AI), algorithms, and related technologies to make decisions about how low-income people work, live, learn, and survive. When people are hurt by AI decision-making, they have few places to turn. TechTonic Justice exists to change this. TechTonic Justice fights the ground-level harms AI causes low-income communities. We do this mainly by supporting local justice movements--legal aid organizations, frontline service providers, grassroots organizers, and affected communities--to identify and fight harmful uses of AI. We emphasize a multidimensional advocacy approach that blends litigation, community activation and organizing, public education, and narrative advocacy. We launched in November 2024. We are incorporated in California, are inspired by dozens of collective years of justice work in the U.S. South with an ongoing commitment to the region, have our teammates in several states, offer our services nationwide, and are debuting intensive state-level work in Arkansas and California. The President is based in Los Angeles.Position Description. This permanent, full-time, exempt Chief of Staff position is fully remote with occasional travel anticipated (~6-9 trips per year). Although candidates may live in any state in the continental U.S. (unfortunately, we cannot hire someone in Hawaii or Alaska for this role), they should anticipate working a schedule that maximizes availability between 8 am Pacific time and 3 pm Pacific time. This position will become TTJs 11th team member and the 10th added in roughly the last year. Owing to our rapid growth, TTJs President is now positioned to turn his focus from establishing vital infrastructural and programmatic foundations towards long-term sustainability, high-level strategy, and consistent thought leadership. The Chief of Staff will provide strategic organizational, project management, and fundraising capacity to free up the Presidents time while maintaining the Presidents close connection and responsiveness to the team. While the position will report to and work most closely with TTJs President, the Chief of Staff will also coordinate extensively with TTJs Operations Director and interface with the entire TTJ team in harmony with our transparent and collaborative culture. Although the Chief of Staff has no formal management authority, the role will exert significant influence within the organization and will gain insights into all aspects of TTJs work, thereby opening possibilities for future career growth. As Chief of Staff roles take many shapes, please read the Job Responsibilities section for a fuller description. Note: While we recognize that strategic and administrative support often overlap and value the latter, we are not looking for traditional administrative support specialists (e.g., executive assistants) for this role. Candidates should focus on their qualifications to fulfill the roles strategic dimensions. About the President. TTJs President, Kevin De Liban, is a lawyer by training and worked for over 12 years at Legal Aid of Arkansas (from 2011 to 2024) at all levels of formal authority, starting as a staff attorney, then managing a team of about 8 attorneys and non-attorney advocates, and ending as the director of advocacy for the entire staff of around 50-60 people. While there, he led several campaigns at the leading edges of anti-poverty advocacy, including ending Arkansass use of an algorithm to cut in-home care to disabled Medicaid recipients, stopping Arkansass implementation of work reporting requirements in Medicaid, and overcoming qualified immunity to hold state officials personally liable for violating constitutional rights. Kevin launched TechTonic Justice in late 2024. Now, roughly a year and a half later, the organization has a team of 10 and an annual budget above $2 million. Kevin has never worked with a dedicated Chief of Staff but has had somewhat analogous relationships in complex litigation with adept attorneys serving as second chairs to manage vitally important day-to-day work. You. Our ideal candidate will demonstrate a profound commitment to social justice, keen analytical skills, an exacting eye for detail, experience absorbing and advancing strategies that others have developed, the ability to learn, understand, and represent positions of other people, the acumen and confidence to inject their own insights and recommendations into existing work, and an approach to relationships that prioritizes discernment, empathy, listening, trust-building, consensus-seeking, and candor. Sitting at the center of different teams and workstreams, the ideal candidate will be energized by dynamic variety and enjoy thinking about how people best move together. We estimate that it would take a minimum of 5-7 years in a similar capacity to have the experience we envision, but this is not a strict threshold. Candidates with modestly less experience who otherwise meet the qualifications should apply. No particular substantive subject-area expertise is required. However, there are various characteristics that are likely advantageous, including experience in anti-poverty work, familiarity working with lawyers or organizers in a social justice setting, and familiarity with the legal aid, access to justice, or tech justice fields. Degree Requirements. There are no specific degree requirements, but the position requires analytical and writing skills that are traditionally honed through writing-intensive academic coursework, often at the graduate level. People who have developed the necessary skills through alternative paths are encouraged to apply. Job Responsibilities: The Chief of Staffs work will involve three overarching functions: 1.
