Community & Developer Relations

Bluesky’s mission is to transition the social web from platforms to protocols. We’re building a federated social network where users have more power. Our team has decades of combined experience building distributed applications.

As a community and developer relations lead, you’ll help us grow a protocol ecosystem and social app. We serve two categories of people, developers and social users, and are looking for a team member who can be attuned to the needs of both at this early stage!

Responsibilities:

• Develop and execute strategies to drive user acquisition, engagement, and retention
• Build relationships with users, developers, and contributors of our open source projects
• Research, write, and edit high-quality content including blog posts, technical and nontechnical documentation, and presentations
• Moderate user and developer communities across platforms such as Matrix, Discord, Slack, Bluesky, etc.
• Monitor and respond to user and developer feedback
• Proactively improve our product and protocol

You might be a good fit if you have:

• Strong empathy, communication and interpersonal skills
• Strong writing skills, including technical writing
• Strong preference for working independently, forming your own strategies, and carrying them out without oversight
• Experience building and managing online communities
• Familiarity with and interest in social media
• Experience with marketing, growth, and communications strategies
• Ability to work collaboratively with engineering and product teams
• Ability to write documentation and communicate developer feedback
• Ideas about what the future of social could look like
• Preference for working on small, fast-moving teams
• Knowledge of open source software development practices and tools
• Bonus: familiarity with Github, Javascript, or other programming languages

We’re a fully remote team, though an overlap of working hours with PST is required. For full-time roles we offer health, dental, and vision insurance.

To apply, email [email protected] with:

• A resume or CV (link or PDF)
• A cover letter that tells us why you care about what we're working on and how your skills equip you to work on it (link or PDF)
• Links to your social profiles, writing, or technical work
