• Partner closely with Community Marketing to translate programming ideas into well-run, memorable experiences for developers and creators

• Support select third-party conferences, partner activations, customer programs, ABM events, and other initiatives as needed

• Build event timelines, project plans, run-of-shows, staffing plans, and Know Before You Go documentation

• Coordinate venues, vendors, production partners, catering, swag, shipping, registration, and onsite logistics

• Manage speakers and internal stakeholders, keeping teams aligned on deadlines, roles, and event objectives

• Help manage event budgets and contracts and keep programs on scope and on schedule

• Partner with Marketing, Community, Sales, Partnerships, Brand, and other cross-functional teams

• Track attendance, engagement, feedback, and other program results, and use learnings to continuously improve future events

• Help build repeatable processes and playbooks as fai’s event portfolio scales

• Excellent attention to detail and a high bar for the attendee experience

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• A collaborative, low-ego working style and comfort partnering across technical and non-technical teams
