Technician, Desktop Support

Founded in 1912, Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) is the preeminent leadership development organization for girls and the leading authority on their healthy development. Millions of Girl Scout alums across the country and the world have gone on to achieve incredible things and make a tremendous impact in fields ranging from public policy, medicine, journalism, and athletics to international relations, science, technology, art, and entertainment. 

As a mission-driven organization, Girl Scouts of the USA champions girls as they explore their worlds, try new things, and develop the courage, confidence, and character to make the world a better place. From stargazing during a first overnight camping trip to building robots, navigating a rocky hiking trail, working together on a community project, and learning about the importance of environmental stewardship, Girl Scouts of all backgrounds and abilities can unapologetically be themselves as they rise to meet new challenges and discover the issues that matter most to them. Along the way they learn the power of friendship, connection, and teamwork. 

Girl Scouts are doers, innovators, problem-solvers, creators, and dreamers, and the GSUSA team is here to center, support, and inspire them, working with 111 local councils across the country and USA Girl Scouts Overseas to deliver our life-changing Girl Scout Leadership Experience.

The Technology Department is a critical driver and enabler for the Girl Scouts movement.  This is where technical expertise, such as application development, solutions architecture, data engineering and infrastructure support all reside to deliver the best experience for girls, volunteers, and supporters.  Directly tied into strategy and innovation, technology solutions crafted in partnership with councils and business partners range from proof of concepts to deployment of highly complex and critical systems.  We deliver technology expertise across all the disciplines and key business systems for the GSUSA application portfolio.  Come join the team and make an impact!
