About the role

Role focused on building and engaging Adaption's developer community, organizing events, and scaling community operations to empower developers, researchers, and enterprises with greater control over AI.

Responsibilities

  • Establish our overall strategy for supporting developers, researchers and enterprises who want to have more control over their AI.
  • Build and maintain Adaption's developer community spaces (Discord server, forums) from the ground up, answer questions, capture feedback, and turn it into actionable issues for the team
  • Develop, manage, and run Adaption's ambassador program, from recruiting and onboarding ambassadors to equipping them with the resources, recognition, and support to represent Adaption in their own communities.
  • Organize and lead meetups, hackathons, office hours, and live streams that introduce Adaption to new developer audiences
  • Collaborate with developer groups, universities, accelerators, and open-source communities to co-host and amplify high-quality events
  • Spotlight user projects and design partners (case studies, writeups, guest talks).
  • Build automations and systems that make community operations scale - when you do something twice, you figure out how to do it better the third time
  • Work closely with technical and marketing teams on cross-functional projects and feedback loops
  • Stay connected with community members over time, keeping a mental map of who's doing interesting work, who should meet who, and what people are building

Qualifications

  • 2–3 years in a community lead role, with a track record of engaging technical users
  • Strong operations instincts - you've built scalable processes from scratch and driven cross-functional initiatives to completion
  • Strong written communication and experience engaging with communities over socials (Discord, X)
  • Proven experience organizing developer events end-to-end, from small meetups to large-scale hackathons
  • Genuine empathy for developers and curiosity about what they're building - you care about individuals, and about changing the status quo of who can shape AI. Energized by people - social situations charge you up, you're the first to say hello, and you follow up
