About the candidate: Michael Basch is a successful entrepreneur with a passion for innovative technology and a commitment to social justice, open-politics, and data-driven policy. He believes that politics as usual is the way of the past – and is reimagining both how campaigns are run and governing is done by bringing a start-up mentality to politics with a focus on tech-centric, data-driven operations and an empathy-centered policy platform that puts innovation, social justice, and community at the forefront.

This is an internship inside a political campaign for the most important position in the most important city in the world.

The opportunity is tremendous and talent will be rewarded. This is also a startup. From social media to outreach. From policy to research.

Your job may evolve hour to hour and day to day. Roles are fluid and ever-changing.

This is a high energy, high expectation environment meant for people ready to challenge themselves and prepared to obsess over making a difference in other people's lives.

We need intelligent, driven and creative young people.

Political interests are imperative.

Community activism is encouraged.

Previous experience in politics is not needed. This campaign is built on innovation and technology and eschews traditional political practice.

This is an entry position with boundless opportunity to begin a career in many different fields.

Social media. Public speaking. Teamwork. Creative.

We are running a 2017 NYC mayoral campaign. We are a versatile team with diverse backgrounds and wide ranging experience building a platform for a socially-minded and technology driven campaign in 2017.
