Our expert community spans 40+ countries and powers some of the most demanding AI projects in the industry. As Community Manager, you'll be the person who makes that community feel like one. You'll inherit a support function and elevate it: building the communications infrastructure, proactive engagement strategy, and team culture that turns a global network into a genuine community.
People management is part of this role too. You'll lead a team of support specialists, and whether that's new territory or familiar ground, the opportunity is the same: real scope, real complexity, and work that matters.
This is a full-time, hybrid position based in San Francisco.
What You'll Do
- Own the communication strategy: Develop and execute a proactive community communications plan that goes well beyond reactive ticket response: regular updates, announcements, onboarding flows, and engagement initiatives across Discord and other channels.
- Manage the support team: Lead and develop a team supporting annotators. Set clear expectations, provide feedback, and build a high-functioning team that can operate effectively in a high-volume, fast-moving environment.
- Handle escalations: Serve as the primary escalation point for expert issues, triaging and routing appropriately to internal teams.
- Build self-serve infrastructure: Create documentation, FAQs, and resources that reduce reactive volume and empower experts to resolve common issues independently.
- Measure and improve: Track community health metrics: engagement, response times, satisfaction, and use those insights to continuously improve the experience.
- Collaborate cross-functionally: Partner with operations, product, and leadership to ensure expert feedback is heard and acted on.
What You'll Bring
- 3+ years of experience in community management, communications, or a related field.
- Experience in the AI/data annotation space (e.g., annotator, QA, or closely related role), or direct experience working with annotation teams or platforms.
- Hands-on experience managing large communities on platforms like Slack or Discord.
- Strong written communication skills — you can translate complex or technical information into clear, engaging messages for a diverse audience.
- Familiarity with ticketing or support tooling (Zendesk or similar).
- Comfort working across time zones and with globally distributed teams.
- A proactive mindset: you identify problems before they become fires and build systems to prevent them from recurring.
Nice to Have
- Experience with expert, freelancer, or gig-economy communities.
- Background in tech, AI, or data services.
- Building help centers, FAQs, and similar resources.
- Experience working with teams in different time zones.
