Who we are

The News Literacy Project, founded in 2008, is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization building a national movement to ensure that all students are guaranteed to be skilled in news literacy before high school graduation, giving them the knowledge and ability to participate in civic society as well-informed, critical thinkers. NLP is the country's leading provider of news literacy education and works with districts and educators in all 50 states, primarily through our signature e-learning platform, Checkology®, and weekly educator newsletter, The Sift®. To read more about the organization and our plans, visit our website.

Where you fit in

The News Literacy Project empowers educators to teach middle and high school students how to sort fact from fiction in the digital age. We are at an exciting inflection point for our work, and we are making critical investments to rapidly scale our growth and impact. To that end, we are seeking the organization's first Chief Technology Officer to lead technology and product functions under NLP’s strategic vision as we scale Checkology's reach nationwide. This is a great opportunity for you to shape the technology foundation of a national movement and directly expand access to news literacy education for hundreds of thousands of students. We're looking for someone who can have an immediate and meaningful impact on our work.

This position reports to the President and CEO.

About the position

The Chief Technology Officer (CTO) serves as the organization's senior technology leader, responsible for technology vision, platform delivery, digital innovation, operational reliability and technology governance across the organization. The CTO ensures technology investments advance mission impact, support sustainable growth and meet the security, privacy and compliance expectations of K-12 school districts and institutional partners.

The CTO serves as a member of the Executive Team and partners closely with the CEO, COO and functional leaders to translate strategy into technology priorities and measurable outcomes.

Specifically, in this job, you will:

Technology Strategy & Governance

Develop and execute a multi-year technology strategy aligned with organizational and programmatic and product priorities.
Establish technology principles, governance processes and investment priorities across product and enterprise systems, including annual roadmaps and technology operating and capital budgets tied to organizational outcomes.
Advise executive leadership and the Board on technology opportunities, risks, infrastructure and digital transformation.
Chair the internal AI Committee, setting the organization's AI vision, enablement strategy and governing policies.
Ensure technology governance processes account for and support the organization's data strategy, in partnership with data leadership.
Evaluate emerging technologies and determine where innovation meaningfully advances mission and user value.

Product Leadership

Oversee the Product team through its senior leader, ensuring strong product strategy, roadmaps and execution.
In collaboration with the VP of Product, align architecture, platform investments, and engineering capacity to enable the product roadmap.
Balance innovation, user needs, technical feasibility and organizational capacity across all digital offerings.

Cybersecurity, Privacy & District Compliance

Establish organization-wide cybersecurity strategy and risk management practices, including incident response planning, business continuity and disaster recovery.
Own technology compliance requirements associated with serving K-12 school districts, including policies and controls for student data privacy and security obligations.
Oversee district technology approvals, security reviews, vendor questionnaire and procurement-related technical documentation, and maintain readiness for audits and compliance reviews.
Ensure systems support district requirements including identity management, rostering, integrations, accessibility and data governance.
Maintain security controls, access governance and security awareness programs, and develop policies governing technology use and information security.
Monitor organizational technology risk and report regularly to executive leadership.

Technology Operations, Architecture & Vendor Management

Lead strategy and performance management of the managed IT services partner, defining service expectations, SLAs, escalation process and accountability mechanisms.
Oversee internal technology operations including devices and collaboration tools; identity management, networking and help desk effectiveness, ensuring staff have reliable, secure and scalable technology support.
Partner with data leadership to build and maintain the infrastructure that enables organizational measurement, reporting and impact analysis, ensuring responsible use of organizational data.
Establish standards for architecture, integrations, technical quality and platform sustainability, and oversee application lifecycle management, technical debt prioritization and platform reliability.
Guide build-versus-buy decisions and oversee technology vendor selection, contract negotiation, performance management and ROI evaluation.
Drive modernization and operational efficiency across enterprise systems.

A sanitized excerpt or a one-page written summary of your approach is acceptable where the original work product cannot be shared.

Our hiring process

Candidates selected to participate will be invited to an initial phone screen and up to three rounds of virtual interviews, conducted with pairs and small groups of NLP leaders and stakeholders.

Finalists will be asked to provide references.
