About this role
Reddit Community ManagerRole Location: Remote / Capacity: Full-time
About OpenArtOpenArt is one of the fastest-growing AI creative platforms, used by millions of people to create images, videos, stories, ads, and other creative work with AI.
We move fast. We launch fast. And when we see an opportunity, we don’t wait for a perfect playbook. We test, learn, and scale what works.
We’re looking for a Reddit Community & Growth Manager to take OpenArt’s Reddit presence from 0 to 100.
This is not a role where you simply moderate a subreddit, schedule posts, and respond to comments.
We want someone who can build a growth channel from scratch.
You’ll own Reddit end-to-end: our subreddit, our presence across relevant communities, content, experiments, community programs, organic distribution, user acquisition, and the feedback loop between Reddit and our product team.
Your goal is simple: make OpenArt impossible to ignore on Reddit.
What You’ll OwnTurn Reddit Into a Growth ChannelYou’ll own the strategy, execution, and results for Reddit.
Build OpenArt’s Reddit presence from the ground up
Grow our subreddit into an active community of AI creators
Set ambitious weekly and monthly growth goals
Run experiments across content, distribution, community programs, and acquisition
Find repeatable ways to turn Reddit conversations into subreddit members, OpenArt users, and advocates
Track what drives reach, engagement, community growth, traffic, and signups
Double down quickly when something works and kill experiments that don’t
Build a Community People Actually Want to JoinDon’t wait for people to start conversations. Create reasons for them to come back.
Create recurring formats, challenges, showcases, discussions, AMAs, competitions, and community programs
Find ways to get OpenArt users sharing their work and workflows organically
Turn great community contributions into moments worth sharing
Identify and support highly active members who can become long-term community advocates
Develop systems that increase participation and retention as the subreddit grows
Moderate the community without making it feel corporate
Win Beyond Our Own SubredditOpenArt’s Reddit strategy cannot stop at https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenArtOfficial/
You’ll spend significant time understanding what people are already talking about across AI, video, filmmaking, design, advertising, and creator communities.
Find conversations where OpenArt can genuinely add value
Participate as a real member of the Reddit community, not as a brand account dropping links
Spot discussions, memes, formats, and topics before they become obvious
Build relationships with moderators, creators, power users, and relevant communities
Identify organic opportunities to introduce OpenArt without forcing the product into conversations
Understand what earns attention on Reddit and what gets ignored
Experiment ConstantlyThere is no finished Reddit playbook for an AI company growing at our pace. We expect you to help write ours.
You might test a creator challenge one week, a new content format the next, an AMA after that, and then find something completely different that works better than all three.
We want someone who naturally asks:
“What happens if we try this?”
Then actually tries it.
You’ll be expected to generate ideas independently, launch experiments quickly, measure the results, and turn winning experiments into repeatable systems.
Be Our Eyes and Ears on RedditReddit isn’t only a distribution channel. It’s one of the best places to understand what users actually think.
You’ll constantly track:
What people are saying about OpenArt
Why users love or dislike specific features
Recurring complaints and feature requests
What people say about competing AI products
Which new AI tools, models, workflows, and use cases are gaining attention
Changes in sentiment around OpenArt and the broader AI creative space
You’ll turn this into clear, useful insights for our product, growth, and marketing teams.
If Reddit starts talking about something important, we should know early.
Who We’re Looking ForYou probably:
Understand Reddit deeply, including its culture, humor, communities, unwritten rules, and what Redditors immediately recognize as marketing
Have experience growing communities, audiences, social accounts, or organic acquisition channels
Think in terms of growth, not just content
Are highly experimental and comfortable trying ideas that might fail
Write excellent, natural English and know how to sound like a person rather than a corporate account
Understand generative AI and actively keep up with the space
Move quickly without needing constant direction
Take ownership when something isn’t working instead of waiting for someone else to fix it
Can go from an idea to execution without weeks of planning
Most importantly, you have a 0-to-100 mindset.
Even Better If YouHave personally grown a subreddit or Reddit account
Have built an online community from zero
Have grown an organic channel with measurable traffic or user acquisition
Use or know about AI image or video creation tools
Understand Reddit search, Google search visibility, and how Reddit content gets found outside Reddit
Have worked with creators, ambassadors, affiliates, or UGC programs
Know how to analyze community and content performance
Can create simple memes, graphics, GIFs, or videos yourself
Use AI to move faster
How We’ll Measure SuccessWe’re not hiring you to “keep Reddit active.”
We’re hiring you to grow it.
Success means:
OpenArt’s subreddit grows consistently month over month
Weekly active members and meaningful discussions increase
Community members start creating conversations without us prompting them
OpenArt becomes increasingly visible across relevant Reddit communities
Reddit becomes a measurable source of traffic and new OpenArt users
Community programs create repeat participation and UGC
We build a network of advocates who genuinely like talking about OpenArt
Reddit insights regularly influence our marketing and product decisions
You find at least a few growth tactics that work well enough to scale
Why OpenArtThis is a high-ownership role at a fast-growing AI company in Silicon Valley.
You’ll have room to build, test, fail, learn, and move quickly. You won’t be handed a rigid calendar and asked to execute someone else’s ideas.
You’ll work directly with a team that ships constantly and expects marketing to move at the same speed.
If you want a role where everything is already figured out, this probably isn’t it.
If you like taking something at 0, figuring out what works, and taking it to 100, we want to hear from you.
