Role Overview

You will be the voice, host, and architect of the Vibecoderz community. From Discord to global hackathons, you’ll create spaces where developers not only learn — they vibe.

This isn’t about managing a forum. It’s about building a living culture where 100K+ developers feel at home, engage daily, and evolve into Vibecoderz evangelists. You’ll run events, spotlight creators, listen deeply to feedback, and transform casual users into long-term influencers of our brand.

You’ll work side by side with the CMO (growth engine) and PM/CTO (product feedback loops) to ensure the community is the pulse of the product.
