  • Track and analyze content performance, providing insights to inform creative strategy.

  • Experiment with new creative formats, editing techniques, and platform tools to drive engagement.

  • Maintain a strong understanding of digital culture, memes, and evolving online communities.

  • Ensure content feels platform-native, relevant, and competitive in today’s digital landscape.

Bring your VIBE:

  • 2-3 years of proven experience creating and editing short-from video (portfolio or social media links are required.)

  • Experience in forming strategic marketing partnerships with influencers, visual creators, and brands.

  • Creative thinker with the ability to quickly adapt ideas into content that resonates with diverse audiences.

  • Strategic marketer who is driven by innovation and understands how to communicate effectively and measure results.

  • Analytical mindset with the ability to interpret performance metrics and pivot strategies as needed.

  • Skilled in video editing tools (CapCut, Premiere pro, Final Cut, or similar) and basic design (Canva/Adobe Suite.)

  • Copywriting skills with a sharp sense of digital tone and trend fluency.

  • Not afraid of a challenge or working with big personalities and multiple teams.
