Description

We are seeking a strategic and hands-on Digital Community Manager to revitalize and scale our customer community across owned and external platforms. This role will own engagement, content, and community experience across our existing on- domain community platform as well as third-party channels such as Reddit and other industry forums. 

You will play a critical role in turning our digital community into a high-value destination for engineers and technical users—driving engagement, improving support outcomes, and ensuring our content is optimized for both human users and AI-driven discovery. 

In This Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:

Community Strategy & Growth 

• Own and evolve the end-to-end community strategy, partnering closely with the social media team, marketing, product, and customer success to strengthen audience engagement across the digital ecosystem. 

• Develop programs to increase engagement, including discussion prompts, gamification, expert sessions, and user-generated content  

• Identify and re-engage inactive users through targeted campaigns and lifecycle programs  

• Define community value propositions and ensure clear differentiation vs. external forums (e.g., Reddit)  

Engagement & Moderation 

• Act as the primary “host” of the community—stimulating conversations, moderating discussions, and ensuring a high-quality experience  

• Respond to user questions or route them to internal SMEs to ensure timely, accurate answers  

• Build and enforce community guidelines and maintain a consistent brand voice  

External Community Presence (Reddit & Forums) 

• Develop and execute a strategy for engaging in external communities (e.g., Reddit, engineering forums) in coordination with the Social Media Team. 

• Monitor conversations related to test & measurement, automation, and relevant tools/ecosystems  

• Participate authentically in discussions to provide technical value—not just promotion  

• Identify opportunities to bring external users into owned community experiences  

Content & AI-Optimized Responses 

• Create and curate high-quality community content—including posts, articles, and discussion threads—in partnership with the global creative team and social media team to ensure brand consistency, alignment, and audience engagement across channels. 

• Translate complex technical topics into clear, structured, and searchable responses  

• Ensure responses are optimized for discoverability by search engines and LLMs (clear answers, context, keywords, citations where relevant)  

• Build scalable content loops (e.g., turning community Q&A into SEO or help center content)  

Programs & Advocacy 

• Launch and  manage community programs such as ambassadors, champions, or super users  

• Design recognition systems (badges, leaderboards, featured members) to reward engagement  

• Foster customer advocacy and peer-to-peer technical support  

Analytics & Insights 

• Own community KPIs (engagement, retention, response time, deflection, contribution rates)  

• Build dashboards and deliver regular insights to marketing, product, and support teams  

• Translate community feedback into actionable product and business insights  

Cross-Functional Collaboration 

• Partner with Product, Support, and Marketing to ensure community is integrated into the customer journey  

• Work closely with the Head of Social Media and cross-functional communications teams to align community and social initiatives, share upcoming priorities, and identify opportunities for coordinated engagement and amplification. 

• Collaborate on product launches, feedback loops, and customer education initiatives  

• Help scale processes for routing technical questions and surfacing insights internally  

Who You Are:

You introduce new ways of looking at problems.  You partner with others to get work done.  You are confident under pressure.

For This Role, You Will Need:

• 4–8+ years in community management, social media, or digital engagement roles (preferably in B2B or technical industries)  

• Proven experience growing and/or revitalizing an online community  

• Experience engaging in third-party platforms like Reddit, LinkedIn, or engineering forums  

 Hands-on experience with NI products or the Test & Measurement Industry 

• Familiarity with test & measurement workflows, automation systems, or engineering use cases

• Strong writing and communication skills (clear, helpful, and structured responses)  

• Ability to simplify complex technical topics without losing accuracy  

• Deep understanding of how to drive engagement—not just moderate  

• Data-driven mindset with experience tracking and optimizing community metrics  

• Familiarity with community platforms (e.g., Discourse, Khoros, Gainsight, Slack)  

• Understanding of SEO and/or how content surfaces in AI/LLM tools  

• Naturally curious and empathetic—focused on user needs  

• Comfortable being both strategic and hands-on  

• Strong sense of ownership and bias for action  

• Able to balance community as a support channel vs. a value-driven engagement channel  

Preferred Qualifications That Set You Apart:

• Background in engineering, test & measurement, or developer ecosystems  

• Experience with technical communities (e.g., engineering forums, open-source communities)  

• Experience creating technical content, tutorials, or documentation  

• Familiarity with automation or AI tools for content and moderation
