From Valency Systems Inc.'s posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Valency Systems is a small, dynamic team of engineers, scientists, and researchers building the global hub for the agentic research era.
We're based in Berkeley, California, and we're building something that matters. If you care about open science, advancing research at the speed of thought, and using AI to accelerate discovery, we'd love to talk.
Our team is hybrid. We come together in person 3 days a week, with the option for 2 days of remote work.
Researchers can smell a sales pitch from a mile away. They trust tools their peers use, papers their peers share, and people who clearly understand the science. That is the community we need to earn.
Valency Hub just opened as a public alpha: a neutral place to publish, fork, and discuss AI-assisted research, grounded in the real scientific record. MCP Bond connects the AI systems researchers already use to tens of millions of papers and preprints. The products are live. Now we need the person who brings scientists in, makes them feel at home, and gives them reasons to come back.
As our first Community Manager, you will own Valency's day-to-day relationship with the research community: across social media, Discord, the Hub itself, and in person. You will spot the interesting paper, the researcher worth spotlighting, and the question that keeps coming up, and turn each into a conversation. You will also be the team's ear, bringing back what researchers actually say so it shapes what we build.
This role is open to recent graduates. We care more about judgment, writing, and genuine passion for science than years of experience. There is no existing playbook here; you will help write it.
In your first 6 to 12 months, you will help Valency begin tracking and materially grow:
Who You Are
You have 0 to 3 years of experience. Recent graduates are very welcome.
You write clearly and quickly. You can turn a paper abstract into a post a postdoc would actually share.
You are fluent in social media and know that Bluesky, LinkedIn, X, YouTube, and Discord each have their own culture.
You are genuinely curious about science and can follow a technical conversation without needing every term explained.
You already use AI tools in your work or studies, and you are honest about where they fall short.
You are organized enough to run an event end to end, and warm enough that people want to come back.
You see the gap and close it without waiting to be asked.
Bonus points
Compensation
We offer a competitive salary, benefits, and equity package, including a 401(k) with matching.
Work Authorization
Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States.
