Social Content Lead (Contract)

As a Social Content Lead, you’ll lead social media and be the day-to-day content creation engine for Theorycraft Games’ first game—SUPERVIVE.

You’ll be the voice, vision-holder, and engine that powers our short-form video content channels, like TikTok and YouTube shorts, working with a scrappy marketing team and enthusiastic devs to (honestly) try a lot of stuff, see what works, and build our presence on these channels from 0 to 1.

If you’re a TikTok native or short-form content creator who loves creating content and thrives in a high-trust, independent working environment and think our culture sounds good, we would love to hear from you!

Ideally, you have:

  • Direct experience creating a wide breadth of short-form content and managing a mid to large-sized TikTok, YouTube shorts, or X account

  • A discerning eye for what works (or doesn’t) in the TikTok zeitgeist - you know exactly when we’ll be ahead of the curve, right on time, or way too late to join the party

  • A love of the short-form content medium and community - ideally you want to contribute or even lead the conversation, not just hop on the bandwagon

  • The skills, vision, and energy to concept and produce content from idea to post, whether making something for fun that day or working against a campaign/brief

  • A deep understanding of—and empathy for—competitive gaming communities and what drives entertaining developer content in those circles

Bonus points for:

  • A love of team-based competitive games

  • Knowledge of the creator ecosystem on TikTok and relationships with relevant content creators

  • Comfort being on camera and being the face of SUPERVIVE on social

We are a small team with big ambitions. We are hungry and want to win. We want to stay small, move fast, and ship early (while we’re still embarrassed). Whenever possible we opt to buy vs. build and we view game development as our craft - not our specialized sub-disciplines. We’re looking for people who thrive with a lot of freedom and responsibility; who wear a lot of different hats comfortably; and who are always, always acting on behalf of the player.

Theorycraft offers competitive base salaries and generous equity packages for full-time employees. As a pre-revenue startup, our base salary range for all roles, including this one, is $80k-$225k. Final base salary will be determined by an array of factors including internal equity, job related knowledge, skills, and work experience.

This position is a fixed term contract, up to 12 months depending on business needs.
