Senior Communications Manager
Shape messaging, pitch media, and lead communications for Bluesky, requiring 5+ years of experience.
Senior Communications Manager
Bluesky's vision is to make social more like the web itself.
About the Role:
We’re looking for a sharp, strategic communicator who can craft our narrative and help steer conversation about Bluesky and the future of social media.
Key Responsibilities:
- Manage and execute Bluesky’s communications strategy across earned, owned, and shared channels
- Write everything from blog posts and press releases to social copy and long-form explainers
- Develop messaging frameworks that speak to different audiences: users, developers, media, and more
- Pitch reporters and prep leadership for interviews, panels, and public speaking
- Monitor media narratives, user sentiment, and internet trends to inform our voice and positioning
- Collaborate closely with engineering, product, and growth to keep messaging aligned
- Manage external comms partners (freelancers, PR firms, etc.) when needed
- Navigate crisis moments with speed and clarity — and build proactive systems to avoid them
You might be a good fit if you have:
- 5+ years of experience in communications, preferably within tech or social media
- Exceptional writing and editing skills, with the ability to shift tone based on platform, audience, and moment
- Have worked in high-velocity startup environments where you ship fast and iterate often
- Understand the media ecosystem and know how to build strong relationships with journalists
- Are fluent in social — you don’t just “manage comms,” you get the internet
- Have a track record of leading campaigns that moved the needle on awareness, sentiment, or growth
We're especially excited if you:
- Are already familiar with Bluesky, AT Protocol, or the decentralized social landscape
- Have experience working with or writing for developers
- Can show us a portfolio of written work — blogs, threads, pitches, etc. — that proves your range
If you have a passion for storytelling, understand the market, and have the ability to adapt to the fast-paced world of social media, we'd love to hear from you.
Please include any relevant links in your resume that showcase your writing.
