Executive Social Media Specialist (Contract)

ABOUT THE ROLE

The Office of the CEO works directly with Amjad Masad and CEO leadership to advance Replit's strategy, external presence, and long-term positioning. This role sits at the intersection of the Office of the CEO and Replit's Brand and Creative function, with a singular focus: building personal presence into one of the defining founder voices of the AI era.

The Executive Social Media Specialist will build an intentional, premium, long-term strategy across visual channels, primarily Instagram. This is an all-in-one creative operator role, not a traditional social media manager. You will travel and capture meaningful moments as they happen, edit quickly, and publish polished content without relying on a larger production team.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Own photography, videography, editing, and publishing across official social channels

- Travel with the CEO to capture speaking engagements, interviews, awards, office visits, and meaningful meetings as they happen

- Identify and produce content around the pillars that have proven to resonate: founder story and personal journey, entrepreneurship and company building, global perspective and cultural identity, and human founder moments

- Develop premium, documentary-style storytelling that favors real moments over manufactured content

- Build out a presence on Instagram and other visual mediums through premium photography, documentary-style video, and behind-the-scenes storytelling

- Maintain quality and brand guardrails, prioritizing credibility and long-term influence over trend-chasing, gimmicks, or a high-volume creator posting cadence

- Partner closely with Replit's Marketing and Communications teams while remaining focused on distinct personal brand

- Move from concept to final execution independently, with strong creative judgment and a fast turnaround

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

- Proven experience producing premium photography and video content for an executive, founder, public figure, or creator, ideally including hands-on shooting and editing

- A portfolio demonstrating documentary-style storytelling, not just short-form trend content

- Comfort and flexibility with travel, as the role involves capturing real-world moments and appearances

- Strong judgment on tone and positioning, able to distinguish content that builds long-term credibility from content that chases short-term engagement

- Ability to work independently across the full production cycle: capture, edit, and publish

- Familiarity with platform-specific storytelling across Instagram and other visual, photo- and video-first mediums

- Discretion and professionalism given close proximity to executive and personal moments

- Experience building a personal or executive brand from an early stage is a strong plus

CONTRACT ENGAGEMENT INCLUDES

- Competitive contract rate, with compensation

- Direct, high-visibility partnership with Replit's CEO and Office of the CEO

- Autonomous work environment with fast decision-making and minimal bureaucracy

This is a contract role and does not offer full time benefits.
