About ClearGov Inc.
Description
ClearGov is an early-stage SaaS company that sells budget cycle management software to small and medium-sized local governments. We're a mission-driven company, passionate about making democracy work better. Our innovative software helps local governments make stronger strategic and financial decisions, and it helps them build community support for the stronger decisions they make.
Our work has been well received. Hundreds of towns and cities across the US are part of the ClearGov community, and we're adding more all the time. We've been named to the "GovTech 100" for five years running, and we're on BostInno's "50 On Fire" list as well. People like working here, too. USA Today named us one of their "best places to work."
The ClearGov team is a tight-knit group of talented folks who are passionate about our mission. We believe in a work-hard/play-hard company culture. Every day, we strive to get better at our work, all while being considerate, trustworthy, and transparent in everything we do.

The CSS, when not responding to inbound client requests, will assist with the creation and maintenance of Support Center content such as articles, tutorials & checklists.
