Beside is building an AI agent that helps small businesses grow by automating customer-facing work like finding customers, answering calls, following up on quotes, booking appointments, and chasing payments. The company focuses on serving the real economy—plumbers, family salons, local gym owners—giving them back time for their craft and customers. You will own Beside's organic social presence across brand channels and selected founder accounts. This is a hands-on, autonomous role where you'll decide what's worth publishing, where it belongs, and when it should go live. Key responsibilities: • Own the social calendar, publishing, and day-to-day operation of brand channels and founder accounts • Curate and reframe raw material (UGC, customer footage, product demos, paid creative) into platform-specific content • Create lightweight original content independently when opportunities arise • Maintain a consistent Beside voice while adapting hooks, copy, formats, and cadence to each platform • Help selected founders turn product moments and thinking into authentic posts • Build recognizable formats that make the product, customers, and team worth following • Develop a repeatable workflow from raw input to finished post • Track performance and audience signals to inform creative decisions Beside operates with distributed ownership (no traditional hierarchy), radical transparency, and a written-first, public-first culture. You'll have significant autonomy to define and evolve your mandate as the company grows. Bonus signals: You run your own YouTube channel and understand what it takes to build content that lands; you've distributed to SMBs in the US and know that audience. Requirements: The posting does not explicitly state years of experience or formal education requirements. However, the role expects hands-on expertise in social media strategy, content creation, platform dynamics, and the ability to work autonomously with minimal oversight. Experience with video editing, UGC curation, and understanding SMB audiences is valued.
