Senior Social Media Manager (Contractor Role)

Senior Social Media Manager, Agentic AI Foundation

Linux Foundation | Remote | Full-time Contractor Role

Company Description

Founded in 2000, The Linux Foundation supports developer communities on a global scale, providing the necessary tools, training, research, guidance, and events to scale open source projects in ways that cannot be achieved by any single entity.

The Agentic AI Foundation is at the forefront of the open source artificial intelligence revolution. As autonomous agents, multi-agent orchestration frameworks, and standardized agent-to-agent communication protocols reshape software development, our foundation brings together top AI researchers, engineers, and enterprise leaders to build open, interoperable, and safe agentic systems. Together with our global community, we are solving the complex technical and governance challenges required to scale agentic workflows globally.

Job Description

The Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) supports the open source projects, protocols, and people advancing agentic AI. Our community includes hundreds of member organizations and ambassadors, alongside more than 100 local communities around the world.

We're looking for a Senior Social Media Manager to lead AAIF's social strategy and daily presence. You'll help people discover what our projects and community are building, grow our audience, and turn that attention into participation in our open source communities. This role combines strategy, writing, content curation, and active community engagement.

What You'll Do

• Own our social media strategy — Develop and execute a plan for growing AAIF's audience and engagement, with approaches tailored to LinkedIn, X, and other relevant channels. Set goals, test ideas, and use results to improve our approach
• Manage our daily social presence — Own the editorial calendar, write and publish posts, and balance planned campaigns with emerging news and conversations. Maintain a consistent AAIF voice while adapting content to each platform
• Amplify our open source projects and protocols — Follow project announcements, releases, tutorials, and community contributions, and accurately explain technical developments and relevance
• Highlight our members and ambassadors — Proactively discover useful content from hundreds of organizations and creators. Build relationships that help surface stories, credit contributors, and give visibility to a broad range of voices across the community
• Support our global events — Promote local events across 100+ AAIF communities, along with AAIF conferences and virtual events. Coordinate with organizers on announcements, registration campaigns, event coverage, and recaps
• Extend the reach of AAIF content — Turn blog posts, case studies, podcasts, videos, and conference recordings into compelling social content. Identify excerpts, clips, and takeaways that give people a reason to engage with the full piece
• Listen and participate — Monitor conversations about AAIF, our projects, and the broader agentic AI ecosystem. Spot emerging topics, questions, praise, and criticism early, and contribute useful replies while the conversation is active
• Exercise editorial judgment — Prioritize a large volume of content based on audience value, timing, and AAIF's mission. Verify claims, preserve our neutral position across organizations and projects, and involve the right colleagues when a response needs technical expertise or sensitive handling
• Measure and share what you're learning — Track audience growth, meaningful engagement, content traffic, and event registrations attributable to social activity. Bring community feedback and emerging themes back to the team along with recommendations for next steps

What You'll Bring

• Experience owning social media strategy and execution for a technology organization, developer audience, or open source community
• Examples of audience growth and engagement, with a clear explanation of your decisions and results
• Strong writing and editing skills, including the ability to make technical topics accessible without losing accuracy
• A working understanding of AI and open source, plus the curiosity to keep learning about projects, protocols, and developer conversations
• Experience with social listening and community engagement, including knowing when to respond, ask for help, or give a conversation space
• Strong organization and prioritization skills, with experience coordinating content across multiple contributors and competing deadlines
• Comfort using publishing, listening, and analytics tools, and adapting content into formats such as carousels, graphics, and short video clips
• Ability to work with a global community across cultures and time zones

What Success Looks Like

AAIF reaches more of the people who build with and contribute to agentic AI. Our projects, members, ambassadors, and organizers receive consistent, thoughtful visibility. Social content helps people discover useful resources and get involved, and AAIF contributes to relevant conversations while they're happening.
