Civic Product Analyst — AllCiv

About Legis1

Legis1 is a congressional intelligence platform that goes beyond tracking legislation, revealing who is driving it. Our platform combines 45 years of congressional and lobbying data, connecting bills, lawmakers, staff, lobbyists, and funders into a single networked intelligence system. Spun out of the nonpartisan Sunwater Institute in 2025, Legis1 is built for professionals who need to understand how policy and influence actually move through Washington.

POSITION 

Legis1 is seeking a Civic Product Analyst to support the launch and growth of AllCiv, our civic engagement, political data, and citizen-facing media platform launching Q3 2026. This is an early-career role suited for someone recently out of college with 1–2 years of work experience or internships, looking to build hands-on skills at the intersection of civic technology, political data, and AI-assisted product development.

The ideal candidate is curious, fast-moving, and comfortable using modern AI tools to prototype and build, We are looking for someone who can follow direction, execute quickly, bring a good eye for design, and help turn ideas and data into working pages and features alongside our engineering and design teams. We want someone who has a genuine passion for politics, policy, and civic life — this is a mission-driven role; we are looking for someone who follows legislation, understands political dynamics, and cares deeply about civic participation and government accountability

RESPONSIBILITIES 

• Use AI tools (Claude Code, Codex, etc) to help design and build features, pages, and prototypes
• Help interpret data and translate it into roadmap directions, build pages, and drive them through to approval

• Support execution-heavy work across the product build process, prioritizing speed and output

• Stay current on trends in civic technology, open government data, and political engagement

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE

• Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (e.g., political science, public policy)
• 1–2 years of experience through full-time work or internships relevant to civics or politics. Experience working on political campaigns, congressional offices, legislative affairs, civic advocacy, or public policy is a plus.
• Comfortable using LLMs like Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini to design and build prototypes. Experience 'vibe coding' with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or comparable AI coding frameworks is ideal.
• Good eye for design; able to recognize clean, intuitive, user-friendly interfaces. An understanding of UI/UX principles is helpful but not required
• Experience developing personal apps or tools is a plus
• Comfortable analyzing data and understanding how it reflects real-world trends in the field
