Responsibilities

You will shape how Proton shows up in the world, not just as a product, but as a movement.

You'll architect the systems, spaces, and experiences that turn curious users into committed advocates, and committed advocates into a global privacy fandom.

This role blends community strategy, culture intuition, program design, content creation, and organic engagement.

You’ll define how Proton builds belonging at scale, from a digital community hub to micro-communities, ambassador tiers, events, and real-world touchpoints.

If you understand that community is not a channel but a force multiplier, and that belonging is built through design, storytelling, and human connection, this is your role.
