About the Job
We're hiring a Content Creator to concept, shoot, and publish fast-moving, culturally fluent content for Terminal X — an AI analyst and trader agent. This is a part-time or full-time role for creators who live and breathe finance, trading, investing, and the AI startup scene.
Role Overview
You'll be the lead creator producing content that feels native to X (Twitter), TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and LinkedIn — personal, fast, and market-driven. You should be comfortable on camera, have a distinct POV on markets and technology, and know how to turn a red day on the Nasdaq100 into a viral moment. If you can make oil futures sound interesting to a 25-year-old scrolling at midnight, let's talk.
What You'll Do
- Concept, script, shoot, and edit platform-native videos from your phone or desktop screen recordings.
- Turn market events, earnings drops, Fed decisions, and AI breakthroughs into reactive, trend-aligned content — think "market recap but make it culture."
- Develop recurring series and content hooks that can run weekly or monthly (e.g., "What Terminal X Caught Today," "60-Second Market Close," "AI vs. Wall Street," "Trade of the Week").
- Experiment with formats: hot takes, screen walkthroughs, "Day in the life of an AI trader," market reaction videos, explainer threads, meme content, and behind-the-scenes of building an AI fintech startup.
- Stay on top of TikTok/Reels trends, audio, and memes, and apply them to finance and AI in a way that doesn't feel forced.
- Deliver a consistent volume of content on a weekly basis with quick turnaround — markets don't wait and neither should the content.
- Incorporate performance feedback and iterate based on views, engagement, watch time, and follower growth.
What We're Looking For
- Platform-native creator: Proven experience creating high-performing content on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram Reels, or LinkedIn — ideally in trading, finance, fintech, or AI/tech.
- On-camera presence: Comfortable as the face of content — authentic, confident, and conversational.
- Market-fluent POV: You actually follow the markets. You know what a CPI print is, why the Nasdaq sold off, and what CTAs are. Maybe you're a day-trader. You read charts, obsessed with technicals and numbers. You don't need us to explain the content — you're already thinking about it.
- Execution speed: Ability to move from idea to published content quickly and independently. A major market move at 3:30 PM should be content by 4:30 PM.
- Production skills: Strong self-shooting and editing skills. You know how to make a phone-shot video look polished, punchy, and memorable.
- Storytelling & hooks: You know how to open a video with a line that stops the scroll — "30-year bond demand just hit an 8-year high" should sound like a movie trailer, not a textbook.
- Portfolio: TikTok / YouTube / Instagram / LinkedIn handle or portfolio showcasing relevant, platform-native work in finance, tech, or adjacent spaces.
Style & Reference
We're NOT looking for a Bloomberg-style delivery (who watches that??)
Think: modern finfluencers, market Twitter energy, startup founder vlogs — someone who makes finance feel accessible, urgent, and a little irreverent. Strong personal style and a natural connection to markets, AI, and product.
Engagement Details
- Full-time (ideal): $100-$200k OTE plus stock options
- Or, freelance / contract, part-time with potential to scale. Month-to-month extension based on performance and content quality.
- Self-produced content, shot in your own environment, our offices, or New York City.
