Community node verification and tooling

Review submitted community nodes: code quality, security patterns, credential handling, UX conventions, and demo videos.
Operate and improve the review pipeline, from automated checks through to human verification, approval, and production release.
Build tooling and automation that supports the review process: Linear workflows, author communication flows, and release process.
Identify patterns across submissions and feed them back into automated checks, the reviewer playbook, and contributor docs.

Community contribution management

Triage incoming community PRs : assess quality, route to the right team, or close with clear reasoning.
Give timely, constructive first responses so contributors know what is needed and feel heard.
Maintain the tooling that keeps this running: scoring, Linear state tracking, routing via CODEOWNERS, and stale PR automation.
Fix recurring friction at the source rather than just flagging it.

Bug fixes, docs, and bringing community voice in

Debug and fix bugs affecting contributors, node behaviour, or workflow reliability.
Make targeted doc improvements that reduce friction for contributors and builders.
Surface patterns from PRs, node submissions, and contributor feedback to the internal engineering team, as this role has clearer ecosystem visibility than most.

Review and manage community contributions

Review community PRs with clear, actionable feedback and help ensure contributors receive a timely first review.
Guide contributors through the review process so they understand what is needed to move their PRs forward.
Help improve and automate the process of managing community contributions as n8n’s builder community continues to scale.

Improve quality and product reliability

Debug and fix bugs across the n8n codebase that impact contributors, nodes, or workflow behavior.
Work with external APIs, SDKs, authentication flows, and node logic to identify root causes and ship reliable fixes.

Support community nodes, docs, and node enhancements

Vet community nodes to help ensure they meet n8n’s quality, security, and usability expectations.
Make targeted docs tweaks that help users and contributors understand how to build, test, and improve workflows.
Contribute to node enhancements and adjacent engineering tasks that make n8n easier to extend and maintain.

✍️ Clear written communication: You can communicate clearly and constructively in async community settings such as PR comments, review threads, and contributor discussions.
🧭 Detail orientation: You’re consistent in following up on open threads, bugs, reviews, and edge cases until they are resolved.
🤝 Collaborative mindset: You’re low-ego, open to feedback, and motivated by helping others contribute successfully.

Nice-to-have
