Ready to apply? ## Description * Drive Partner Technical Success: Help schools fully integrate with GiveCampus and adopt our most advanced capabilities, so they hit the fundraising outcomes that matter to them - and the goals that matter to us. * Be the Technical Voice of the Partner: Build deep relationships with advancement teams and serve as their trusted technical advisor - someone who understands their operations, anticipates their needs, and speaks fluently to both the gift officer and the IT director. * Become a Systems Authority: Develop expert-level knowledge of the major CRMs in the advancement space (Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT, Salesforce/Affinaquest, Slate Advancement, Anthology, Ellucian Advance, and others) and the broader ecosystem of tools schools rely on - then turn that knowledge into the guidance and best practices that shape how GiveCampus integrates with all of them. * Build What Partners Need: Take on a range of technical projects depending on where Partners need the most help - building integration tools that make data flow between systems effortless, designing custom applications on top of the GiveCampus platform, or prototyping new capabilities that deepen Partner engagement. * Partner Across Teams: Work hand-in-hand with our Advancement Services and Platform Product & Engineering teams to surface Partner feedback, advocate for the right fixes, and inject real-world insight into roadmap decisions. ## Related Videos - [Recruitment Reinvented: Bold strategies and the $10K signing incentive](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1068-recruitment-reinvented-bold-strategies-and-the-10k-signing-incentive) - [JavaScript?
