Social Media & Community Marketing Intern

We're TapBlaze, a Los Angeles-based casual mobile game studio behind Good Pizza, Great Pizza and Good Coffee, Great Coffee. We're looking for someone special to join our team as a social media and community intern. For the right person, this can turn into a full-time role on our team.

This hands-on internship aims to put you on real projects from day one. The gaming industry moves quickly, and we want to set you up with the kind of experience and skills that actually prepare you for a career in it. We're looking for someone to help grow our social presence, deepen player engagement, and build an active community around our games.

We value passion, creativity, and a genuine desire to grow. If you're curious whether you'd be a good culture fit, we encourage you to learn more about our team values at tapblaze.com.

What You'll Do

• Create social media assets (video + static) tailored to each platform's format and audience

• Write captions and marketing copy that drives clicks, installs, and engagement

• Schedule posts across all platforms using tools like Sprout Social or Loomly

• Study what works, what doesn't, and constantly push for better across TikTok, Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, X, and Discord

• Plan and run creative community events for our players

• Stay plugged into our communities and surface trends, feedback, and ideas to the team early

• Help shape our social roadmap beyond the internship: which data to act on, what to watch for, and where you'd recommend we go next

Your First 10 Weeks

By week 10, you'll be running our social end-to-end: setting the creative strategy, producing platform-native content, writing copy that drives installs and not just likes, and publishing across all our channels. You'll have a clear read on which platforms have the most room to grow, backed by real data, and an active pulse on our communities. Success will be measured by real, trackable growth: follower counts, engagement rates, and the quality of the strategic direction you leave behind.

Interns who perform at a high level will be considered for a full-time marketing role at the end of the internship.

• Have a meticulous attention to detail, take pride in your work and enjoy elevating content through adding professional yet personal touches
