Summary / TL;DR
About the Role Manta Network is a modular blockchain ecosystem for Web3 and AI applications, combining a high-throughput execution layer with zero-knowledge infrastructure and AI-native products. Our team is distributed across Singapore, Hong Kong, mainland China and the US. Korea is one of our priority growth markets , and this role owns it end to end — strategy, community, KOLs and events. The role is remote, but you must be based in Korea (Seoul preferred) as the person on the ground for the market. Responsibilities Korea market strategy & growth targets: Define the Korea go-to-market plan: positioning, narrative, channel mix and quarterly targets. Own local user growth, community size and engagement metrics. Community & social channels: Build and run Korean-language communities across KakaoTalk, Telegram, X, Naver Blog/Cafe and DC Inside. Produce localized content daily and run AMAs and campaigns. KOL, media & partnerships: Source, negotiate with and manage Korean crypto KOLs, YouTubers, channel owners and media (Coinness, TokenPost, Blockmedia, Decenter). Build partnerships with local exchanges, DAOs and university blockchain clubs. Offline events & local campaigns: Deliver meetups, hackathons, conference side-events and booth presence at KBW, Upbit D Conference and ETH Seoul. Own budget, venue, speakers, sponsors, on-site execution and post-event conversion. Localization & cross-team collaboration: Localize product, docs, announcements and campaign assets into natural Korean. Feed local user feedback and competitor intelligence back to product, BD and global marketing. Requirements 3+ years marketing in Web3 or high-growth tech: Marketing, growth or community experience at a crypto project, exchange, Web3 media outlet or fast-moving tech company. You have shipped campaigns yourself, not only managed agencies. Fluent Korean + working English: Native-level or fluent Korean writing for a local crypto audience — non-Korean nationals based in Korea (including Chinese speakers) with fluent Korean are equally welcome. English sufficient for daily work with a distributed team. Korean Web3 network: Existing relationships with Korean KOLs, community admins, media or exchange teams that you can activate in your first month. Offline event execution: Independently organized meetups or conference events in Korea. Familiar with Seoul venues, vendor costs and sponsor logic. Crypto & AI literacy: Hands-on user of wallets, DeFi and AI tools. Able to explain L1/L2, staking, airdrops and AI agents in plain Korean, and to react quickly to narrative shifts. Self-driven operator: Comfortable being the only person on the ground for the market. Sets own priorities and works across time zones. Nice to Have Data-driven growth: Fluent with analytics and quest platforms such as Galxe, Zealy, Dune and GA4. Content creation: Produces short-form video or thread content, or has a personal following in the Korean crypto scene. AI-native workflow: Uses LLMs and AI tooling to scale content, research and community operations. Paid media: Runs paid campaigns on Naver, YouTube and X with budget ownership and measurable ROI.
