The role

We’re looking for a Community Manager with a deep interest in building a passionate and loyal fanbase around web3 privacy. You must be web3 native and have familiarity with the latest and greatest crypto projects and their communities. You should be energized to activate the Aztec community of privacy-first developers, and the users who will benefit from what they build.

The Aztec Labs team and tech are widely respected across the industry. You will lead efforts to build our community from the ground up, making this a high-impact role both within Aztec Labs and in the broader Ethereum, crypto, and zero-knowledge communities. 

You’ll be very hands-on leveraging Discord, your own Twitter presence, and potentially other platforms to find and engage privacy degens and newbies alike. 

You will help onboard and manage an external team of community moderators, advocates, and other contractors. 

You should be a people person who loves writing, memes, games, traditions, and creating connections online and in person. You will be the Aztec subject-matter expert on community development, and have broad autonomy to execute your mandate. You should still be able to collaborate well cross-functionally within the Aztec Labs team as well.
