About HeyGen

At HeyGen, our mission is to make visual storytelling accessible to all. Over the last decade, visual content has become the preferred method of information creation, consumption, and retention. But the ability to create such content, in particular videos, continues to be costly and challenging to scale. Our ambition is to build technology that equips more people with the power to reach, captivate, and inspire audiences.

The role

We're hiring a Developer Community Manager to build and run the Hyperframes and HeyGen for Developers community across hackathons, online communities, and meetups. You will be the connective tissue between the developers building on HeyGen and the team building HeyGen's APIs and Hyperframes (which passed 20K stars on GitHub in 2 months).

You'll set up the programs, playbooks, and culture of our developer community. You’ll build in our high-growth, fast-moving environment, figuring out the right mix of formats and where to put energy.

What you'll do

Build a hackathon playbook. Own HeyGen-hosted, co-hosted, virtual, and sponsored hackathons end to end.
Plan and run meetups. Organizing the format, venue, speakers, partners, logistics, promotion, and follow-up.
Own our community channels. Keep Discord and Reddit active, welcoming, and high-signal.
Build a Developer advocacy program. Identify emerging advocates to build relationships with them, highlight their builds, and design the framework for a developer Ambassador program.
Feed insights back to the team. Capture pain points, feature requests, and docs gaps and get them to Product and Engineering.
Measure what matters. Track and report on community health so we know what’s working.

What you'll bring

3+ years in developer community, DevRel, developer marketing, or technical community management for a developer-facing or API-first product
A track record of running successful Hackathons and meetups
Experience growing online communities (Discord, Reddit, GitHub)
Enough technical fluency to earn developers' trust. You can read API docs, make an API call, build a small demo, and hold your own in a conversation about SDKs, webhooks, and rate limits.
A strong operator's instinct, you run logistics flawlessly and sweat the details that make events and communities feel good.
Ability to be on-site and travel for events
A self-starter who thrives in ambiguity and a fast-moving, early-stage environment and is comfortable owning outcomes without a playbook

Bonus points

You have existing relationships in the AI / builder / hackathon scene in SF or beyond.
Familiarity with AI video, avatars, or generative media.
Comfortable on a mic hosting, MCing, or speaking at events.
