ZYPHRA IS AN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE COMPANY BASED IN SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA.

You will be the primary face of Zyphra to the global developer community, building and scaling our presence on GitHub, Discord, X, and at the industry events that matter most.

Your job is to find it, accelerate it, structure it, and turn it into one of the most active open-source AI communities in the field. You will be a critical member of the GTM team and work in close collaboration with Zyphra’s research, engineering, and product teams.
