About Beam

Beam is building the demand infrastructure layer between attention and access in the creator economy.

Creators face a lot of inbound opportunities from brands and fans. Beam qualifies all requests in a centralized place, empowering creators through the business side of social media with more leverage, using data algorithms to surface valuable opportunities while allowing creators to maintain their independence and agency. 

Stage 1: Frictionless Access
Stage 2: Demand Intelligence
Stage 3: Creator-led Marketplace

We're a live startup with existing partnerships looking to scale aggressively before our first round of funding at the end of 2026.

Now we need distribution clarity and velocity.


Role Overview

We are looking for hungry students that want to own distribution from 0 → 1.

This is not a traditional marketing role.
It is a builder role.

You will:

  • Design and execute our creator acquisition engine
  • Shape Beam’s public narrative
  • Translate product philosophy into traction
  • Turn early adoption into structured growth loops

You will work directly with the founders and growth team to align positioning, product iteration, and growth.


What We’re Looking For

Ideal Candidate Profile

You likely:

  • Have prior growth and/or marketing experience, ideally in an early-stage startup (0 → 1 or 1 → 10).
  • Have worked directly with creators, influencers, or digital-first brands.
  • Are meaningfully connected within the creator ecosystem (micro to mid-sized creators especially).
  • Deeply understand how creators monetize (brand deals, sponsorships, collabs, coaching, communities).
  • Have personally used social platforms to drive growth (TikTok, IG, X, YouTube, Reddit, etc.).
  • Know how to turn short-form content into distribution.
  • Are fluent in modern AI workflows (video generation, editing automation, content repurposing, DM automation, CRM tools).

You don’t need to be polished.
You need to be sharp, and hungry.
 

Your First Mission

Acquire and activate the right creators.

This includes:

  • Designing a structured creator outreach system (cold + warm)
  • Building video-first growth across TikTok, IG, X, Reddit, Product Hunt
  • Owning and executing marketing campaigns 
  • Creating case studies from early wins
  • Building referral loops inside creator networks

We care more about signal quality than vanity metrics.

 

What Makes This Role “Founding”

You are building:

  • Our voice
  • Our narrative
  • Our positioning
  • Our growth playbooks
  • Our early distribution infrastructure

You are defining how Beam is perceived.


Why This Role Matters

Beam’s product can be excellent.
That won’t be enough.

If we win, it will be because we paired product clarity with distribution velocity.

This role determines whether Beam becomes “another tool” or the interaction layer creators rely on.
