Meme Content Creator (Politics & News)
Overview:
TaskForce is hiring a Meme Content Creator who lives at the intersection of politics, news, and internet culture. This is a high-speed, high-output role for someone who can take a breaking headline at 9:07am and turn it into a viral post by 9:12. You’ll report directly to the editorial/audience lead and be responsible for creating content that doesn’t just react to the conversation, but shapes it. If you’re terminally online, politically sharp, and actually funny (not “brand funny”), this is for you.

- Create reactive content around breaking news, debates, speeches, and major moments
- Be available when the moment calls for it

- Post and optimize content across subreddits and social platforms
- Understand tone, format, and what works where
- Engage when it helps performance, know when to lean in and when to stay invisible
Bring ideas, not just execution
- Pitch concepts in daily brainstorms
- Spot trends before they peak
- Find smart, unexpected ways to insert messaging into culture
Get better every week
- Pay attention to what hits and what flops
- Use feedback and performance to sharpen your instincts
- Continuously evolve your formats, tone, and approach
Requirements
- 2–5 years making memes or social content (politics, media, or culture preferred)

Benefits
- Competitive salary commensurate with experience $65k - $80k
- Full health insurance coverage and dental/vision benefits.
- 401k retirement savings plan with company match.
- Generous paid vacation and 14 annual company holidays.
