Social Media & Content Intern

Xyra — Social Media & Content Intern Part-Time · Remote · March 2026 About Xyra Xyra is a personal operating system, an AI-powered platform that turns simple prompts into fully built tracking dashboards. Tell it you need a to-do list, a workout tracker, or a job application log, and it builds it instantly. Everything you're managing in your head, your notes app, and five different tools; finally in one place that talks back. We're in early-stage growth and this is a ground-floor opportunity to help build something from scratch. About the Role We're looking for a creative, self-directed content creator to own Xyra's social media presence on TikTok and Instagram. This is not a supporting role, you will be the face and voice behind the content, bringing real energy and creativity to everything that goes out. The GTM lead will provide the strategic framework, content direction, weekly themes, specific content ideas, and calendar structure . Your job is to take that foundation and make it come alive. You'll have room to pitch your own ideas, add your own creative spin, and bring instincts the strategy alone can't plan for. Think of it as a true collaboration: the strategy is set, the creative is yours. This role is ideal for someone who lives at the intersection of creativity, storytelling, and culture, and who isn't afraid to challenge what's already out there. No specific degree or major required. If you create content, understand what stops a scroll, and want to build something real, we want to hear from you.
