Have a keenness for listening to the needs of communities, distilling those learnings into actionable insights, a deep commitment to serving vulnerable and underrepresented communities, and be an expert facilitator of sensitive discussions with internal teams and mods.
Serve as an external ambassador for Reddit, with proficiency in constituent outreach, building partnerships and alliances, and creating forums to inform platform and business outcomes.

What We Can Expect From You:
