About the Role
Director of Engineering, EveryAction
About EveryAction & Bonterra
EveryAction is Bonterra's multichannel CRM and digital engagement platform, built for nonprofit fundraising. It brings fundraising, marketing, advocacy, and CRM together in one unified experience, helping organizations deliver personalized outreach across email, mobile, and digital channels. EveryAction serves a wide range of nonprofits, from growing midsize organizations to large, enterprise, and national missions, helping them engage supporters, raise more, and grow donor lifetime value.
EveryAction is also home to Bonterra Que, our agentic AI suite built directly into the platform. Que doesn't just advise, it acts: building campaigns, segmenting donors in plain language, drafting emails aligned to brand and best practices, and surfacing the insights fundraisers need to make smarter decisions. Grounded in the largest data set in social good and built with humans in control, Que already has strong adoption across our customer base. This role will help build and scale that product line.

• Serve as the primary engineering contact for product and design leadership, aligning on roadmap priorities, technical constraints, and timeline expectations.
