Community Manager Resident Intern at Jito Foundation

About Jito Foundation

The Jito Foundation is an organization with the broad mandate to promote the adoption of Jito Network products, including JitoSOL, the largest DeFi protocol on Solana. We are both extremely lean and relentlessly effective, and pride ourselves on having built a flat culture that empowers multi-talented self starters to develop and pursue their own strategic vision.

About the Role

We are looking for a Community Manager to act as our digital spearhead on the front lines of building the Jito cult. Reporting to our Creative Director, you will have broad reign to propose and iterate on new projects and serve as our ambassador across multiple public channels. You will be learning from and working in concert with crypto veterans who have executed at the highest levels of the industry.

The ideal candidate will have a deep passion for Solana and Jito, a keen understanding of meme culture, and the ability to engage and grow our community effectively. This role requires excellent organizational skills, promptness, and a proactive attitude, as well as excellent communications skills, storytelling, and copywriting. If you are already adept at some or all of these skills, the role could be for you. If you are world-class at one of these skills and willing to learn some or all of the others, the role could be for you.

You will be critical to the Jito Foundation’s success as we strive to push the boundaries of DeFi on Solana. You will have as much responsibility and autonomy that you have the ambition to seize and the competency to keep. The role is best suited for a zealot.
