Obvious has built the world's most capable, collaborative AI agent—one that partners with knowledge workers to produce their best work. We're about to change how billions of people work and create. And we need someone who can tell that story in a way that makes people stop scrolling.

What you'll do

You'll be the voice and face of Obvious across every platform that matters. This means creating compelling content, building a community that actually cares, and turning users into evangelists. You'll work on and off camera, manage our social presence, engage directly with our community, and potentially build partnerships that extend our reach.

Create content that people want to share
Produce high-quality video, written, and visual content for social media, YouTube, LinkedIn, X, and emerging platforms. You'll be on camera regularly, so comfort in front of a lens isn't optional. Your content should feel native to each platform while maintaining a consistent brand voice that's sharp, useful, and occasionally surprising.

Build and nurture community
Own our community strategy across Discord, social channels, forums, and wherever our users gather. You'll be the bridge between Obvious and the people who use it—fielding questions, sparking conversations, gathering feedback, and making people feel like they're part of something that matters.

Manage social media like it's a performance
Run our day-to-day social presence with the understanding that every post is a brand moment. Track what's working, iterate fast, and stay ahead of platform changes and cultural moments. You're comfortable being chronically online and identifying trends and opportunities before the moment's passed.

Explore partnerships and influencer relationships
Identify and build relationships with creators, influencers, and partners who can authentically amplify our message. This isn't about spray-and-pray outreach; it's about finding the right people and building genuine collaborations that feel natural, not transactional.

What we're looking for

You're a natural storyteller
You know how to take complex ideas and make them feel simple, exciting, and relevant. You understand pacing, hooks, and how to hold attention in a world where everyone's distracted.

You're extremely online (in the best way)
You live on the platforms you'll be managing. You know what's trending, what's cringe, and what actually resonates. You have strong instincts about what will land before you hit publish.

You're comfortable on camera
This role requires regular on-camera work—whether that's hosting videos, appearing in content, or going live. You should be natural, engaging, and able to represent the brand with confidence.

You move fast and ship often
You don't wait for perfect. You test, learn, and iterate. You're comfortable working in public and taking calculated risks with content.

You're a builder, not just an executor
You don't need a playbook handed to you. You'll be building our content and community strategy from early days, which means you need to be comfortable with ambiguity and excited by the opportunity to shape something from the ground up.

You have the receipts
You've built audiences, grown engagement, or managed communities before. You can point to work that's gotten real traction, whether that's viral content, engaged communities, or campaigns that moved metrics.

What it's really like

This isn't a 9-to-5 content calendar job. You'll be moving fast, experimenting constantly, and working in a high-visibility role where your work is seen by thousands (and eventually millions). You'll have creative freedom, but also high expectations. The team is small, the stakes are high, and the opportunity is massive.

You'll work alongside a team that's built products at Netflix, Uber, Google, and Meta. You'll use Obvious daily (AI adoption is 100% here), and you'll be expected to produce work that reflects the same quality we're building into the product.

This is a chance to be the first content/community hire building the voice of a company that's about to reshape how the world works. If that sounds like the opportunity you've been waiting for, we should talk.

The not-so-secret sauce

High agency, low ego
You'll have the freedom to make calls and the responsibility to own outcomes. Feedback flows in all directions here.

AI adoption isn't optional
You'll use Obvious and other AI tools daily. Our goals demand exceptional effort and high leverage—AI is how we get there.

Work in public
We avoid private threads. Progress happens in shared spaces where the team can see, contribute, and learn.

Take on hard things
This isn't the place to coast. You'll tackle challenges at the edge of what's possible, often outside your comfort zone.
