Chief Technology Officer

Voluntary · ~4 hrs/week · United Italian Societies (UIS)

As the organisation’s first CTO, you will keep UIS’s online spine running smoothly while piloting the new “AI for Social Impact” tooling. You report directly to the CEO/COO and collaborate daily with the CFO on data governance.

What you will do

• Keep the public UIS website up, fast and error-free; update design or functionality whenever needed

• Design and maintain the organisation’s overall digital infrastructure (workflows, data flows, automations)

• Lead the roll-out of AI tools that cut administrative friction for a 100 % volunteer staff

• Provide lightweight technical guidance to chapters that need digital support for their local projects

Who you are

• Comfortable administering and updating a modern website stack (CMS and basic front-end tweaks)

• Able to map a process and translate it into simple, low-code automations or scripts

• Familiar with current AI/ML tools and keen to pilot them in a non-profit setting

• Attentive to data privacy and security, and organised enough to juggle several small requests per week

• Happy to collaborate asynchronously with volunteers across time-zones

Why it matters

Your work will let every UIS volunteer spend more time on high-impact programmes instead of administration, and will give you a live case-study in productising AI and automation for the social-impact sector—gold on a tech CV. You will liaise with senior executives and institutional partners, gaining a network well beyond campus.
