About the role
Discord has a highly engaged community of millions of daily active users who use the platform for many different reasons, but there’s one thing that nearly everyone does: play video games. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming, and we are focused on making it easier and more fun for people to hang out before, during, and after playing games.
What they're looking for
- Build Discord’s creator strategy from the bottom up, starting with direct conversations and a clear understanding of what creators already on Discord need from us
- Bring together the creator work that exists across Discord today, establish clear ownership, and turn a collection of early efforts into a coherent program
- Define who we mean by creators and develop an initial approach for selecting and serving a trusted group across games, platforms, formats, and communities
- Create more than one program for creators, beginning with the fundamentals: accelerated support, clear paths for escalation, and reliable channels for two-way communication
- Manage relationships with important creators directly. Understand how they use Discord, help them solve meaningful problems, and build trust by following through
- Build a creator council or network that gives us a consistent view of what creators are seeing, where Discord is falling short, and what would make the platform more useful to them and their communities

We’re hiring a Senior Staff Program Manager to build Discord’s approach to creators from the ground up. You’ll begin with a selected group of creators already using Discord, build the fundamentals that serve them well, and develop programs that make their experience on Discord better. Over time, you’ll turn what works into programs that can serve creators at scale and, eventually, give new creators more reasons to...
