Department

Customer Success, Community Experience & Trust

This Is Not a Job. It's a Stake.

We're not hiring someone to answer support tickets—we're bringing on a founding executive to build one of the most important organizations inside Anime Universe.

Every interaction a fan, creator, publisher, or partner has with Anime Universe will shape how they perceive our brand. Your mission is to design the systems, teams, technology, and culture that create exceptional experiences at global scale.

Minimum commitment:

20 hours/week.

If that's not realistic, it's not the right fit. We operate on clarity—not stretch.

This is an

Equity Partner

role. That means:

• Founding-level equity participation (standard vesting schedule)

• Future token-based rewards (subject to legal and regulatory approvals)

• Remote-first, globally distributed leadership team

If you believe customer success is a strategic advantage—not a support function—we'd love to build with you.

Let's Be Very Clear

Most companies build customer support after they've grown. We're building it before we need it.

Anime Universe is creating a platform that brings together fans, creators, publishers, licensors, marketplaces, AI experiences, gaming, social communities, and future blockchain-powered digital ownership. That complexity requires far more than a traditional customer support organization. We're looking for an executive who can build a world-class Customer Success, Community Operations, Trust & Safety, Creator Success, and Partner Experience organization from the ground up. You'll help establish the standards that define how millions of people experience Anime Universe.
