World
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, especiallyX.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.
