The Community Analyst Role

We are looking for a Community Analyst to architect and scale a high-signal digital ecosystem of builders, researchers, and operators. This is not a moderation role; it is a growth operator role. You will be responsible for turning community into distribution, partnerships into acquisition, and engagement into measurable revenue impact.

Key Responsibilities

• Community Growth & Engagement: Own and scale our Slack community into a high-value hub for AI builders and researchers. Architect engagement loops that increase retention and depth of participation, driving repeat engagement and conversation quality.
• Content & Creator Strategy: Source and manage UGC creators producing AI-native video and short-form content. Develop performance-ready creative assets for distribution and identify content angles that drive reach and conversion.
• Affiliate & Referral Engine: Launch and scale referral systems across various channels including agencies, recruiters, universities, professors, tutors, job boards, and influencers. Run outbound partnership sprints: identify → pitch → close → activate.
• Revenue & Analytics: Transform community efforts into measurable top-of-funnel growth. Track engagement, Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) signals, conversion rates, and partner performance. Run weekly growth experiments and iterate quickly.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with marketing and leadership to align narrative, positioning, and growth experiments. Contribute to strategic decisions with data-backed insights.

Required Qualifications

• Proven experience in community-led growth.
• Experience launching or scaling affiliate/referral programs.
• Strong content intuition – you know what spreads and why.
• Experience managing creators, influencers, or User-Generated Content (UGC) pipelines.
• Clear and persuasive communicator.
• High ownership, low ego, fast execution mindset.
• Comfortable running multiple experiments simultaneously.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in robotics, AI, or STEM ecosystems.
• Deep Slack-native community building expertise.
• Track record of converting community into measurable revenue.
