Careers

The Chief Culture Change Officer will design and execute CDI’s strategy for large-scale culture-change engagements, oversee delivery across campuses and state systems, and build a high-performing team to drive this work nationally.

CDI is hiring for a Director of Finance. The Director of Finance’s primary responsibility will be to help CDI make smart, mission-aligned decisions by leading our financial strategy and day-to-day operations—budgeting, forecasting, financial reporting, and cash flow management.

The ideal candidate brings experience in nonprofit finance, a strong handle on internal controls and compliance, and a collaborative approach to partnering with teams across the organization. They will be responsible for building and improving the processes, systems, and metrics that keep our finances clear, timely, and useful—so leaders can plan confidently and resources are stewarded well across grants, contracts, and operations. They will also manage relationships with external partners like auditors, banks, and financial vendors, as needed.

This role will report to CDI’s Executive Director. They will work closely with colleagues across CDI to strengthen our financial foundation, support sustainable growth, and ensure our resources are aligned with the mission and impact we’re here to deliver.

We are seeking an exceptional part-time contract Grant Writer to support our foundation and institutional fundraising. This role will lead drafting and revising LOIs, proposals, and grant reports; synthesize input from staff; and ensure all materials reflect our voice and nonpartisan approach.

The ideal candidate is a precise, adaptable writer comfortable with politically nuanced subject matter, reporting initially to our Co-Founder and Executive Director and later to our VP of Development (once hired). While scoped as a contract position, we’re interested in building a long-term relationship, with potential for additional writing projects over time, including work beyond fundraising.

CDI is seeking a hands-on Lead Full-Stack Engineer to be our first in-house engineering hire and technical owner of our learning platform. Reporting to the VP of Product and partnering closely with the Associate Product Manager, this role will set technical direction and make key architecture decisions while staying deep in the code—leading implementations, resolving production issues, and turning research and product priorities into shipped software.

CDI seeks a highly organized and service-oriented Program Manager to support CDI’s partnerships and initiatives. This full-time, remote role will work closely with CDI’s Culture Change team to streamline systems, coordinate logistics, and ensure the seamless execution of projects and campus partnerships.

CDI is seeking a strategic, entrepreneurial leader to serve as our Vice President of Development. Reporting to the Co-Founder and Executive Director, the VP will lead the organization’s development strategy and will oversee all aspects of philanthropic revenue—including major donors, foundations, and regional funders.
