Content Strategist / UGC Scriptwriter (TikTok, Reels, Shorts)

Employer   Location   —Comp   Market-rate pay depending on experience

The employer is looking not for a copywriter but for a content strategist who understands why short-form video goes viral and can turn that understanding into a repeatable system. The role involves developing content strategy with the team, working directly with UGC creators, and owning measurable content results across TikTok, Reels and Shorts with a focus on the US audience. Work sits at the intersection of AI and the creator economy in a small team with fast decisions.

What you'll do

  • Develop content strategy together with the team: directions, formats, funnel from TOF to BOF.
  • Track what works on TikTok, Reels and Shorts and turn findings into repeatable formats.
  • Write hooks, scripts and detailed briefs that creators can shoot from without follow-up questions.
  • Work directly with UGC creators: assign tasks and give feedback on drafts.
  • Test hooks and formats, analyze hold rate, watch time, saves and clicks, and decide what to scale.
  • Prepare a weekly report: what worked, what didn't, which hypotheses to test next.
  • Own real content results rather than the number of videos produced.

What we need

  • 2+ years in SMM, content strategy or short-form video production.
  • Understanding of virality: ability to explain why a video worked.
  • Deep understanding of US short-form video culture, written English B2+.
  • Knowledge of marketing fundamentals: ICP, positioning, funnel, messaging.
  • Experience writing scripts and briefs for creators, UGC or ad videos.
  • Decisions based on metrics and hypotheses.
  • Ownership: measurable impact matters, not closed tasks.

Nice to have

  • Content creation experience: shooting, editing, own account.
  • Experience in SaaS, AI products or the creator economy.
  • Experience managing a pool of freelancers or UGC creators.

What's in it for you

  • Market-rate pay depending on experience.
  • Real influence on strategy from day one.
  • Work at the intersection of AI and the creator economy.
  • Small team, fast decisions, direct work with the founders.
