Developer Relations & Community Manager (APAC)

**About the Foundation:** The OpenClaw Foundation is the steward of the world's largest open source AI agent project. Its mission is grounded in a foundational conviction: that AI must be open, safe, and ultimately owned by the individuals and communities who use it. The Foundation operates across three core mandates: - Advancing research into the human-agent relationship while continuously evolving the OpenClaw platform; - Maintaining and hardening the codebase to ensure security, reliability, and long-term sustainability; - Establishing interoperability standards for the emerging agent era, defining how agents configure, communicate, establish trust, transact, and represent user identity across ecosystems. Modeled after the governance structures that shaped the open web and modern computing infrastructure, the Foundation serves as a neutral, multi-stakeholder convening body — the equivalent of W3C or the Linux Foundation for the agentic AI era. Major laboratories and infrastructure providers collaborate under its umbrella on shared, vendor-neutral infrastructure, with no single organization controlling the roadmap or direction. The OpenClaw Foundation believes that individuals should have full sovereignty over their AI: their data, their interactions, and the behavior and personality of their agents. Open source is not incidental to this mission but central to it — code must remain free to use, modify, and build upon. The future of agentic AI will be defined by a broad, developer-driven community, not prescribed by any single commercial interest. **The Role** The OpenClaw Foundation is seeking a **Developer Relations & Community Manager based in APAC** to build and scale the community behind one of the most ambitious open-source AI initiatives in the world.
