DAO Ops S14 Budget Request

This is a renewal proposal for the DAO Ops workstream requesting budgetary funds for Season 14 (May 1, 2022 through July 31, 2022). Revised on May 10, 2022.

Update: For S14, we request $948k USD or 377k GTC* This request also includes a $26k reduction over the original S14 request, assuming the scaled back release of the coaching and professional development initiative ratified by CSDO in S13.

*Inclusive of 60-days of reserves and S13 budget rollover. Note: The GTC total will be adjusted based on the current market value at the time this proposal is moved to Snapshot and to Tally. The vote will be to send $ in GTC at the current price when moved to Tally or the 20 day moving average (whichever is lower).

TL;DR: As one of the newer workstreams, DAO Ops continues to grow with the aim of operationalizing GitcoinDAO with the consent of each structured workstream.

Key objectives:

• Develop sustainable DAO-wide treasury strategy and scale accounting operations ensuring timely payments and treasury diversification within workstreams

• Streamline contributor onboarding process with clearer entry points, support CSDO, and set high standard for community management

• Support steward participation via enhanced information flow

• Improve community tooling, increase community adoption, service DAO infrastructure, and provide enhanced security

• Improve the hiring experience, and provide clear, accessible People Ops guidance; Scale the peer review and role documentation to support additional contributors

• Rebuild the user support team and improve its performance
