For most engineers, LinkedIn has little or no value and is primarily the place where you get spammed. That's why we're building TechTree as a careers platform specifically for devs. The business is built around a two sided problem. Companies struggle to attract and retain engineers for more than 12 months. Engineers find it hard to discover engineering teams that really suit them and their interests. Engineers also struggle to get support with their career and struggle to build a professional network (which helps with the discovery side of things). These are the issues TechTree has set out to solve.
TechTree is backed by some great angels like co-founder of Monzo, ex Global Head of Marketing Startup Bootcamp, Senior Product Manager from Amazon and more.
Job DescriptionAs a Community & Events Manager within TechTree, you will have the exciting opportunity to build and nurture our growing ecosystem of 80+ communities.
