Key skills for this role
Modular is building a next-generation AI infrastructure platform that unifies fragmented application frameworks and hardware backends into a single, programmable system – making it easier to deploy AI in production while accelerating innovation across models and hardware.
As our developer community grows, we need someone who can bridge the gap between our engineering team and developers building with our developer products: Mojo and MAX.
We're looking for a Senior Open Source Community Manager to support our community and help developers succeed with Modular's platform.
This is an individual contributor role within the product organization, reporting to Modular's Manager, Technical Community.
In this role, you'll answer complex technical questions across our forums and Discord, triage and manage contributions across our open source repositories, shape our open source and packaging strategies, and help build a thriving ecosystem around Modular's technology.
Success in this role within 6 months looks like taking ownership over and driving the triage process of open source contributions at Modular, and ensuring timely responses to those contributions while improving the experience of open source contributors.
You'll work closely with engineering, product, and developer relations teams to ensure our community has the resources, support, and direction they need to succeed with Modular's platform.
