Job summary

Adaption Labs, Inc. is seeking a hands-on Community Lead to empower developers, researchers, and enterprises with practical tools and pathways to shape AI at the edge. You will design programs that connect users with our team and with each other, turning feedback into action.

You’ll organize events, manage online spaces, and nurture ambassadors, while collaborating with technical and marketing teams to grow a vibrant ecosystem around our mission.

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

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
