Community Lead

Community Lead

Fluxer is an open-source chat app for text, voice, and communities, built for people who want a chat product that respects their time and data. The company is based in Sweden, and our employees and contractors work remotely across countries. We are a small team, so people are expected to own their work, communicate clearly, and stay close to the users affected by their decisions. The code is public, so you can read how the product is built before you apply.

What this role is

You would keep Fluxer's public voice and community spaces clear, active, and useful. You would talk with people who use the app, share what the team is working on, collect feedback, and help the team understand what people are excited about or frustrated by. Because Fluxer is open source, many of the best conversations happen in public, with people who care enough to read the code, ask hard questions, and suggest changes. Your job is to keep those conversations healthy: friendly, honest, and connected to making the app better.

What you would actually be doing

• Running our social presence, including Bluesky, in a voice that sounds like someone who understands the product and the people using it
• Keeping our official communities welcoming, active, and useful for new users, regulars, contributors, and moderators
• Working with our volunteer moderators: backing them up, giving them clear guidance and a direct line to the team, and noticing burnout early
• Writing launch notes, changelogs, community spotlights, status updates, and posts that explain what changed or what we are fixing
• Turning long, messy feedback threads into clear notes the team can act on
• Hosting AMAs, feedback sessions, and small community events people actually want to join
• Noticing when the mood changes around a feature, policy, outage, or announcement, and telling the team early
• Coordinating with support, safety, and legal when a community issue turns into a support issue, policy question, press question, or escalation

What makes someone good at this

• You write strong, clear English and know when a joke helps and when it gets in the way
• You understand how online communities work: excitement, frustration, inside jokes, recurring questions, and the speed at which a small issue can become the whole conversation
• You have run a social or community presence for an app, project, or group of real people
• You can reply calmly to someone who is upset, someone who is confused, and someone who is both at the same time
• You are comfortable in chat-based communities such as Fluxer, Discord, Slack, and forums

Other things we would be glad to see

• Open-source or volunteer-led community experience, where nobody reports to you and everything runs on persuasion
• Content skills: images, short video, livestreams, or the ability to make something look intentional in under an hour
• Additional languages beyond English

Who you would work with

You would be our main community voice, working closely with support and trust & safety, who often see hard conversations first, and with design and engineering, who build the features people are talking about. Small team, low ceremony, written things over meetings.
