About this role

What You'll Do

Brand Voice and & Content

- Own the day-to-day tone across TikTok, Instagram, X, Reddit, and YouTube

- Partner with content team to conceive, script, shoot, and edit social-first content, from quick-turn reactive posts to planned campaign content

- Build and manage the content calendar, balancing always-on posts with product launches, network news, and cultural moments

- Spot trends and platform shifts early, and translate them into brand-relevant content

- Partner with internal and external teams to keep messaging and brand experience consistent without sounding like a robot

Strategy & Performance

- Set and report on social KPIs (e.g. follower growth, engagement, traffic, and downstream conversion/signups) and use them to shape what we make next

- Run regular performance reporting and translate the data into specific "do more of this, kill that" recommendations

- Identify and act on opportunities to turn organic social moments into acquisition or retention wins

- Keep a pulse on competitors and the broader culture landscape to inform what US Mobile should be doing next

Community & Real-Time

- Manage community interactions and inbound engagement across channels, maintaining a distinct, human brand voice in every reply

- Monitor for and jump on real-time cultural and platform moments with a bias for speed over polish

- Surface user-generated content, fan moments, and community insight back into the content pipeline

What We're Looking for

- 3–5 years of hands-on social media experience at a brand, agency, or fast-moving startup — bonus points if you've grown an account from a cold start

- A portfolio or examples of content you personally created, wrote, or edited — not just campaigns you oversaw

- Comfort being both the creative and the analyst: you can shoot/edit a TikTok in the morning and defend a KPI dashboard in the afternoon

- Excellent, adaptable writing — you can shift tone across platforms without losing a consistent brand personality

- A genuine, current relationship with the internet: you know why something is funny or shareable before it's explained to you

- Bias for action — comfortable publishing and iterating in real time rather than waiting for a dozen rounds of approval

- Experience with social analytics/listening tools

Benefits and Perks

- Annual company offsite and hackathon in a global destination. Past locations include Dubai, Japan, and Hawaii, with New Zealand planned for 2027

- Competitive Salary

- Gym reimbursement

- Commute reimbursement

- Flexible working hours

- Professional development stipend

- Flexible time off

- Cell phone service (up to $100/mo)
