Community Manager (Games, PC & Consoles)

RibCage Games is building cross-genre, style-forward games. Alpha Nomos integrates music and combat end-to-end with a dynamic soundtrack and reactive world.

We’re hiring a Community Manager to grow, listen to, and champion the Alpha Nomos community across Discord, Steam, and socials in addition to supporting out business partners with the same ops. You’ll partner with marketing/PR and the dev team to turn community insights into action, support upcoming beats and convert interest into wishlists and retention.

Your impact:

• Build the place players actually want to hang out.
• Speak human, not corporate; keep the vibe safe, helpful, fun.
• Turn moments (trailer, patch, demo) into momentum (wishlists, returners).
• Close the loop: surface feedback, celebrate fixes, show progress.
• Help new players “get it” in 30 seconds with clear posts, clips, and how-tos.

What you’ll do:

Community operations:

Discord (primary hub)

• Own structure, safety, and tone; run weekly prompts, AMAs, play sessions.
• Publish quick “how-to” posts (beat timing, calibration, HUD).
• Tag, triage, and close the loop on feedback; post patch notes & changelogs.

Steam

• Draft and schedule Announcements, event pages, and update posts.
• Turn trailers/patches into clear CTAs (wishlist, demo, Discord join).
• Maintain a living FAQ; respond to Discussions quickly and respectfully.

Instagram

• Ship 3–4 Reels/week (moment-to-moment gameplay, combos, sound-reactive moments etc) with one-sentence hooks.
• Stories: BTS polls, Q&A stickers, countdowns.
• Maintain highlights (Start Here, Latest Patch, Community Clips).

YouTube

• Shorts: ~3/week (clean, satisfying rhythm captures).
• Long-form: 1–2/month (devlogs, feature explainers, soundtrack).
• Optimize titles/thumbnails, chapters, end screens; maintain playlists.

TikTok

• 3–5 short clips/week tailored to trends; stitch/duet creator clips.
• Use on-screen text to explain “why this feels good” in <5 seconds.

X/Twitter

• Daily lightweight updates: GIFs, WIP shots, creator quote-RTs.
• Monthly “teach” threads (timing windows, difficulty tips).

Reddit

• Participate in relevant subs; post milestone updates and patch retros; answer top questions concisely.

Cross-channel ops

• Maintain a content calendar (beats, assets, owners, publish times).
• Repurpose smartly (one capture -> Reel/Short/TikTok/GIF).
• Track UTMs and link strategy; standardize CTAs by channel.
• Build a small creator kit (logo, footage, music usage notes, disclaimers).

• Launch & event support: Execute wishlist/Discord CTAs across social/Steam during trailers, demos, and Next Fest—synced with PR/creator beats.
• Draft Steam announcements and a Discord run-of-show (times, roles, assets, backups).

• Creator & player feedback loop: Triage feedback into themes (beat timing, HUD clarity, difficulty/checkpoints, story/lore) and close the loop via updates.
• Support creator activations (posting windows, watch-parties, highlight reels) and track impact.

• Measurement: Weekly report: wishlists, Discord growth/retention, announcement CTR, support topics, video views/avg watch time, and community highlights.
• Recommend next tests (hooks, formats, posting windows) based on data.

Must-haves:

• 1–2 years in community, social, or creator partnerships (internships count).
• Excellent written English; concise, friendly, no fluff.
• Familiar with Discord admin/mod tools, Steam announcements, and basic analytics (UTM, CTR, conversion mindset).
• Organized executor who can run a calendar and keep threads moving during busy event weeks.
• Passion for the gaming world.

Nice-to-haves:

• Comfortable with short-form capture/editing (clips/GIFs) for “on-beat” showcases.
• Experience moderating game communities or live event chats.
