ARK Team is Expanding: Looking for Community Managers

Are you a long time community member looking for an opportunity to get more involved in ARK? Are you a non-developer who really wants to be a part of the ARK team? We are looking to hire a new Community Engagement Manager to help build out the ARK Communications and Marketing Team!

ARK Core v2 is a major milestone in our development process. With it, comes an entirely new core, re-written from the ground up to be leaner, more efficient and contain a large number of new features that make deploying custom blockchains easier for developers all over the world. But we didn’t stop there. ARK Core v2 also comes with completely re-written SDK’s, a new version of our industry leading desktop wallet is in the making, and soon, the first graphical user interface enabled version of our push-button blockchain deployer.

With all of this excitement comes new tutorials, new questions, renewed interest from the community, and for our team, a major focus on partnerships and building out use cases for the technology. That is why we need your help!

For ARK to gain true adoption, our team of founders needs to focus their energy on evangelizing ARK and running the day to day operations required to make ARK a success. That means spending less time on Slack and more time getting out there and closing deals with major partners, more time developing our marketing plans, and more time building out the vision and roadmap that will take ARK to the next level. Let’s face it, who better to show what the platform is capable of than the group who founded it.

To help us transition into this next phase in our development cycle, we are looking to expand our Communications & Marketing Team. We have already hired one new Community Manager that will be announced shortly and we are looking to add one more new Community Manager to our full time staff.

The following position is now taking applications:
