Lead creative strategy for organic short-form and paid social across TikTok, Instagram, and Meta. Write scripts and briefs, produce high-volume ad variations (30–50/month), iterate from performance data, collaborate with media buyer, and maintain platform trend expertise to turn attention into customers.
You'll own the creative behind everything that brings people to WallStreetQuants — organic short-form on TikTok and Instagram, paid social ads on Meta and TikTok, and the strategy that ties it all together. You're not just making content; you're building the system that turns attention into customers.
What you'll actually do- Own the creative strategy across organic and paid: hooks, angles, formats, narratives, what we test next
- Write scripts and briefs for short-form video (TikTok, Reels, Shorts) and ad creative
- Ship volume: we want 30-50 ad creative variations per month and consistent organic output. Iteration is the job.
- Work closely with our media buyer to read performance data and feed it back into the next round of creative
- Stay deep in the platforms — trends, formats, what's working for adjacent niches, what the algorithm is rewarding this week
RequirementsWhat we're looking for
- A portfolio that shows range: talking-head, voiceover/b-roll, testimonial, meme-edit — not one signature style
- Comfort talking in performance terms (CTR, CPA, ROAS, hook rate, hold rate) and reading ad account data
- You've personally shipped hundreds of ad variations, not dozens
- Strong writing — hooks, scripts, captions. Most creative wins or loses in the first three seconds, and that's writing
- You understand the full funnel: that ad creative interacts with landing page, offer, and audience, and you ask about all three
- Background or genuine interest in markets, trading, quant finance, or technical subjects — you don't need to be a quant, but you should be able to learn this material fast and not make us cringe
- You've built or grown your own creator account
Benefits
- $100-150K compensation
- Full remote, flexible hours, async-first culture
- Real ownership — you're shaping the channel, not executing someone else's brief

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
