ArbitrumDAO & Plurality Labs "Our Biggest Minigrants Yet" Program Retro

Yesterday I sent out a tweet asking if anyone is hiring for certain non-technical roles in Web3, and I got an overwhelming number of responses in the comments and messages in my DMs. https://twitter.com/ddwchen/status/1512165818922119170?s=20&t=kKMkdspv8i_NON_Xy5nieQ To make it easier for job-seekers to find what they’re looking for, I sorted through the comments and DMs and compiled a list of job openings by function.
