Developer Community Manager
We're a team of technologists who love to teach, and we're looking for a developer community manager to help us reach, organize, and inspire the vast Redis community.
As a developer community manager, you'll lead the growth and nurturing of our community through several initiatives. You'll run our champion program, which recognizes key contributors and empowers them, in turn, to lead within the community and help other developers on their Redis journeys. You'll help build our online communities, including a fast-growing Discord server and a YouTube channel. You'll also work to define and run future programs.
This is a cross-cutting role that interfaces with our developer relations, product, and marketing teams. As such, our ideal candidate has a wide range of skills and is able to speak the language of software developers, marketers, and product managers. If you've worked with open source communities, all the better.
What's most important to us is finding someone who loves to bring people and technology together. If this sounds exciting, we'd love to hear from you!
