Org Description: Launching in 2026, The National Fund for Women is currently seeking a Director of Tech Operations & Member Experience to join our innovative team and help power our fast-growing community for the years ahead. Inspired by the AARP model, The National Fund for Women (NFW) is a membership-based community that provides both immediate relief to American women while building infrastructure to champion their interests for decades to come. In the short-term, we’re building a space to celebrate, listen, and uplift American women through microgrants, coupons, perks, resources and more. In the long-term and with scale, the NFW will grow to directly support tens of millions of American women and generate billions of dollars to support gender advocacy work. 

Position Summary: The Director of Tech Operations & Member Experience will serve as the connective tissue across NFW’s programs, technology, and community experience. This leader ensures that our internal systems and member-facing platforms — microgrants, perks, Zero Dollar Store, membership portal, and more — run seamlessly, efficiently, and with care. This role blends operational excellence, technical fluency, member acquisition, and community empathy — building the backbone that allows millions of women to access what they need with dignity and ease. The ideal candidate has the mind of a systems architect and is as comfortable tinkering on the backend with web developers as they are with A/B testing marketing strategies to acquire new members.
