## Job description

**About the Organization**

World Foundation serves as the steward of World, an open-source protocol supported by a global community of developers, individuals, economists, and technologists.

World is building a real human network designed to accelerate people in the age of AI. As bots and autonomous agents reshape the internet, people, institutions, and applications need a trusted way to confirm who is a real human while preserving privacy.

The Foundation supports and expands the network’s self-sufficiency, including through protocol governance, grants, community affairs, and ecosystem development. Tools for Humanity is a core World contributor and operates World App. This role is hired by and represents the World Foundation.

**The Opportunity**

As AI and autonomous agents reshape the internet, proving who is human while preserving privacy is becoming critical infrastructure. World ID already serves as a trust layer for consumer platforms and enterprises, and our goal is to make World ID the default trust layer for agents. This role leads that push.

We're seeking a Head of Community and Ecosystem to define and lead the voice of the World Foundation and World Chain across the AI, Web3, technology, and broader digital communities.

This is a senior, hands-on role for someone who knows crypto and AI inside out, has a proven track record in building credibility across influential communities, and can ensure that World Foundation is represented in the online and offline conversations and events that matter most.

**What You’ll Do**

* Own the integrated communications strategy and narrative for World Foundation, World Chain, and the broader World ecosystem.
* Build a strong presence across crypto-native channels, especially[X.com](http://X.com), while supporting broader media and public communications.
* Ensure World Foundation has a voice in important AI, Web3, digital identity, privacy, and emerging technology conversations.
* Identify important AI and Web3 conferences, events, and communities, and ensure the Foundation is represented in the right places.
* Build relationships with developers, builders, researchers, investors, founders, opinion leaders, media (traditional and new or emerging), and ecosystem partners.
* Translate complex technical, governance, and ecosystem work into clear communications for different audiences.
* Partner with Tools for Humanity’s communications and marketing teams to coordinate messaging and represent the Foundation’s perspective.
* Manage the Events Manager and Grants Specialist, and lead external communications, community, and growth agencies and contractors where appropriate.
* Support the Foundation’s grants and ecosystem strategy by identifying high-leverage partners and opportunities.
* Travel regularly to build relationships and represent World at relevant events.

**What We’re Looking For**

* Significant experience in strategic communications, community, ecosystem, media, or a related function, ideally in crypto, AI, technology, or open source.
* Fluency in Web3 and AI communities, including the leading companies, researchers, founders, conferences, and industry conversations.
* Excellent writing, communication, and judgment, with experience engaging technical audiences, developers, founders, investors, media, and opinion leaders.
* Experience managing teams and overseeing communications, community, or growth agencies and contractors.
* Ability to build trusted relationships and operate independently in a fast-moving environment.
* Willingness to travel approximately 20–25% of the time.

**Nice to Have**

* Experience with grants, ecosystem development, partnerships, or community programs.
* Existing relationships across AI, crypto, developer, research, media, and technology communities.

**Who You Are**

* You’re fluent in crypto and know how to engage credibly with its communities.
* You are genuinely interested in AI and have existing relationships across AI, crypto, developer, research, and technology communities.
* You know where important conversations are happening and how to make sure World is represented and meeting the moment appropriately and successfully.
* You are a clear thinker, compelling writer, and credible representative.
* You are comfortable moving between strategy, relationship-building, events, and hands-on execution.
* You have high agency, are self-directed, collaborative, and motivated by ambitious, mission-driven work.
* You thrive in start up environments and display grit.
* You’re based in the CET or ET time zones.
