About the dYdX Operations subDAO

As the dYdX ecosystem nears the release of a fully decentralized and open-sourced version of the protocol - dYdX Chain - it is crucial for the dYdX community to actively engage in promoting the growth and expansion of the dYdX DAO. The dYdX Operations subDAO is the second dYdX subDAO, first established through an on-chain proposal that passed on December 18th, 2022. This year, the subDAO was granted a further $6.6m in funding by the dYdX community to provide crucial infrastructure ahead of the potential launch of dYdX Chain.

5. Researching best practices for Forum management developed by other defi communities, and making improvements based on these learnings.

Requirements:

• Proven experience in online community management, moderation, and/or a user support or customer service role.
• Demonstrated interest in community-led governance.
