Developers and companies around the world build on it, and the SDF team is expanding to support the rapidly growing and changing Stellar ecosystem.

The launch of smart contracts on Stellar, brings a wealth of opportunity for innovation, and when you join SDF as the Developer Events Manager you will be a part of a team that’s leveraging that opportunity to increase developer participation in order to bootstrap the ecosystem of tools, protocols, dapps, and educational resources necessary for Stellar to succeed.

• Dream up and execute on ideas for developer events and activations (e.g. head-to-head competitions with another ecosystem)
• Seek out devs and dev partners in other ecosystems for whom Stellar may be a good fit, and build relationships to bring them into the ecosystem

• Own relevant ongoing dev activation and event onboarding 3rd party partnerships
• Collaborate with and/or co-own event initiatives with Dev Marketing, Ecosystem Growth, Investments, etc.
• Explore ways to leverage communities that are growing through the Stellar Ambassador Program and Stellar Community Fund

• A passion for technology, and the ability to learn quickly and understand technical concepts to diverse audiences
• Curiosity and a strong desire to learn anything you don’t know, and explore, especially when it comes to identifying dev activation opportunities
• Creativity, drive, and self-direction when it comes to organizing dev spaces, developing initiatives to grow and reward community members, and finding ways to surface the right information and enable relationships
• Eagerness, presence, and a love of talking to people and bringing positivity to others
• Excellent writing and speaking skills; poise, presence, and experience with public speaking
• Knowledge of blockchain and the ability to navigate web3 ecosystems
