Coordinate customer open source contribution engagements with account, product, and engineering teams. Run contributor recognition programs, develop communications and events, promote initiatives internally and externally, and improve workflows using existing tools and AI agents. This is a community and program coordination role rather than hands-on engineering.
About the Role
Join a community engineering team that grows and supports an open source contributor community for a widely used DevOps platform. You will coordinate collaborative contribution engagements between customers and internal product and engineering teams, run contributor recognition programs, and raise awareness of the team’s work inside and outside the organization.

- Partner with product marketing and other stakeholders to deliver program content on schedule

- Use existing tools and AI agents to deliver the work, and identify and implement workflow improvements over time
