About Hedera:
Hedera is the decentralized governing body for the Hedera network, an enterprise-grade public distributed ledger technology (DLT) network thatâs fast, environmentally sustainable, and secure, making it well-suited to become an integral layer of the emerging web3 world.
Hedera is governed by a diverse group of world-leading institutions distributed across six continents, representing multiple industries, including technology, banking, financial services, web3, education, legal services, gaming, aerospace, and manufacturing. The vision for the Hedera network is to support a trusted, empowered, and decentralized digital future for everyone; cyberspace where you work, play, buy, sell, create, and engage socially; where you have safety and privacy in your digital communities; where you feel confident when interacting with others; where you own and control your information. Hedera brings together some of the best minds in the industry.
We are proud of our high-quality culture and dedicated to values of integrity, ethics, service, excellence, and teamwork. We are looking for hard-working, talented, and collegial people to help achieve this vision. Join us and say, "Hello future."
Background:
The Hedera codebase and ecosystem standards are open source and contributed by the community through Hedera Improvement Proposals (HIPs). The community consists of Hedera application and ecosystem developers, node operators, and peripheral organizations. Through our Council Members and community engagement, Hedera brings together some of the best minds in the industry.
In addition to our distributed governance model, a part of what makes Hedera unique, is that we're the only public ledger that uses hashgraph consensus, a faster, more secure alternative to blockchain consensus mechanisms. Hashgraph, created by Leemon Baird Hedera's co-founder and Chief Scientist, works efficiently to verify transactions while ensuring the highest standard of security to prevent malicious attacks.

About the Open Source Community Manager role:
Hedera is looking for an Open Source Community Manager to support our Chief Open Source Officer (COSO) in the development and implementation of the Hedera Councilâs open source strategy. The Open Source Source Community Manager will assist in creating a vibrant, inclusive and growing open source community of contributors to the core hashgraph platform, the Hedera services built on top of hashgraph, applications that run on the network, and related open source technologies.
Success in this role includes fostering a culture of innovation involving enterprises, application providers, academia and individual contributors to help identify the most impactful open source strategies and methods for Hedera to grow its leadership in the emerging Web3 industry.
