I believe organizations like the FSF, FSFE and SF Conservancy employ basically lobbyists to help represent open-source.
And organizations like Mozilla, KDE, GNOME, openSUSE, The Document Foundation, Wikimedia etc. will have basically open-source community managers. So, where you could potentially help to steer an open-source community, as far as that’s possible.
But yeah, these positions are extremely rare. Like, we’re talking a few dozens on the whole planet.
People in these positions usually have made a name for themselves in other ways and have experience in similar jobs…

That’s what I feared. Opensource needs a lot more marketing (and ads).
