What you need

  • Strong judgment about when to engage in conversations
  • Comfort with tooling, automation, monitoring platforms, APIs, AI, and lightweight workflows
  • Ability to create structure in processes such as monitoring rules and response playbooks
  • Experience working with a technical or enthusiast audience

Nice to have

  • Experience building social listening or community-monitoring systems
  • Familiarity with developer platforms like Reddit, Discord, Hacker News, GitHub, Stack Overflow, X
  • Experience launching or operating a Discord or other owned developer space
  • Experience creating triage, escalation, or response workflows
  • Familiarity with developer tools, infrastructure, observability, security, AI, or open source

What you get

  • Competitive salary and equity package
  • Variable compensation based on skills, qualifications, and experience
  • Healthcare and dental benefits
  • Parental planning and mental health benefits
  • 401(k) plan and match
  • Paid time off

Worth weighing

  • Role is not traditional community management; requires building systems and processes
  • No specific technical skills or programming languages mentioned, but comfort with technical products is necessary
  • Salary range provided, but actual compensation may vary based on individual qualifications
  • Emphasis on building and scaling engagement rather than managing existing content
