Jobs at Votizen

We don't believe a broken system is capable of fixing itself. Change must come from outside. Social media is disrupting politics in profound ways, creating a new model for civic engagement. At Votizen we recognize this and are helping invert the political system, putting voters back into the position of power and influence. Our members already have millions of friends in their existing personal networks. We simply identify and connect those who are the most active voters and bring them together, voter-to-voter, based on common interests. This data and relationship-driven approach makes voters not passive targets of carefully crafted messages, but active participants in a connected election. The recommendation of a trusted friend is infinitely more powerful than any 30-second attack ad or robo-call. This has always been true, but in the past our personal networks have been easily overpowered by broadcast networks. No longer. Now social networks have the power, and command the attention and respect of those we trust. Votizen wants to empower these networks to fundamentally redefine politics in 2012 and beyond.
