About this position:
We're looking for a Content Producer who's equal parts trend-spotter, content creator, and creative problem solver. You're the person who's always thinking, "this would hit for our brand" and then actually bringing it to life.
This role is at the core of our content engine. You'll work closely with the Senior Social Content Manager to ideate, create, and evolve content that not only looks good – but performs. From tapping into culture to shaping repeatable content, you'll help ensure everything connects back to strategy, audience behavior, and what's actually resonating.
This isn't about chasing every trend. It's about knowing which ones are worth it – and making them feel like our brands.
What you'll be doing:
Content Ideation & Development
How you work:
We take a market-based & data-driven approach to compensation. We leverage data from trusted third-party compensation sources to help us understand the market value of a role based on function, level, geographic location, and scope. We evaluate compensation bi-annually, including performance and market-related factors.
Our salaries are benchmarked against market Total Cash Compensation for the geographic location of our job posting. Compensation for some roles is structured as On Target Earnings (OTE = base commission/variable) while for others it is structured as Salary only.
To comply with local legislation and ensure transparency, we share salary ranges on all job postings. Skills, experience and other factors help determine the final salary we offer which may vary from the original range posted.
Additionally, all permanent team members are eligible to participate in various benefits plans as part of their overall compensation package.
Salary Range:
$30 - 40 / hour
We have offices in Boston, MA; Vancouver, BC; Chicago, IL; and Vancouver, WA. For select positions, we are open to hiring fully remote candidates. We post our positions in the location(s) where we are open to having the successful candidate be located.
Diversity, inclusion, and accessibility:
At Later, we are committed to fostering a culture rooted in an inclusion-first mindset at every level of the company, embracing the importance of hiring and building teams for culture add rather than culture fit. We openly build and maintain unbiased hiring, pay, and promotion practices to create a foundation for an equitable workplace, paving the way for systemic change.
We are committed to creating a diverse environment and are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. All applications will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, national origin, disability, or age. Please let us know if you require any accommodations or support during the recruitment process.

Content Ideation & Development
- Develop social-first content ideas across TikTok, Instagram, and emerging platforms

- Stay deeply tapped into social: trends, sounds, formats, creators, and platform shifts
- Identify trends early and translate them into brand-relevant content quickly (and thoughtfully)
- Understand the why behind trends, not just the execution
- Shoot and capture content (primarily on iPhone) in both planned and real-time environments
- Edit short-form video with a strong sense of pacing, hooks, and storytelling – from quick-turn native edits to more polished executions using transitions, motion design, text animation, and layered effects when appropriate
- Bring ideas from concept → execution → final delivery with a platform-first mindset

- Help turn monthly and quarterly insights into new content opportunities
- Help identify patterns across high- and low-performing content (hooks, formats, themes)
- Apply learnings from test-and-learn roadmaps to future content
- Contribute to testing, iterating, and scaling what works
- A hybrid thinker—equally strategic and creative
- Comfortable leading client conversations and presenting performance insights
- Can easily flex between overseeing a team and rolling up your sleeves
- Deeply fluent in social media trends, platform nuances, and content formats
- Fast, scrappy, and passionate about storytelling through social
- 1–3 years of experience in social media, content creation, or a related field (internships personal content absolutely count), along with a portfolio showcasing your work.
- Strong understanding of TikTok and Instagram content formats and platform behavior
- Experience creating and editing short-form video (iPhone CapCut or similar tools), with a working knowledge of more advanced editing techniques and simple motion/animation
- Strong creative instincts and an eye for what makes content engaging
- Basic understanding of performance metrics (views, engagement, retention)
- Agency experience is a plus, but not required
- Knows the difference between a good idea and a good idea for the internet
- Can immediately tell when something feels too branded (and how to fix it)
- Has strong opinions on hooks – and can explain why something didn't work
- Thinks about content in formats and series, not just one-off posts
- Has a camera roll full of saved ideas and references
- Sends trend ideas before being asked
- Gets excited by comments, shares, and saves – not just views
- Has said "wait, don't post that yet" and been right
How you work:
