[Hiring] Startup Launch Coordinator @Startup Launch Coordinator

Role Description

As the Startup Launch Coordinator, you are the go-to-market engine for WiscAI's product launches. Your day-to-day looks like this:

• Set up a new social media account for an app launch. Done. Move to the next one.
• Write and post 3 pieces of content across platforms. Done.
• Jump into a Reddit community and engage in a relevant conversation. Done.
• Check download numbers and report what is working. Done.
• Follow a launch playbook step by step to get a product onto Product Hunt or the App Store. Done.

You are the person who gets through a to-do list, not around it. Some days you will set up accounts, write posts, engage in communities, and report back what happened — all before lunch.

Specifically, you will:

• Create and manage social media accounts across platforms. Post consistently. Grow followers.
• Execute launch campaigns on platforms like Product Hunt, Reddit, and the App Store.
• Engage in online communities where our users live. Be a genuine, helpful presence - not a spammer.
• Create short-form videos, social copy, and launch announcements.
• Track what is working (downloads, engagement, signups) and share what you are learning weekly.

You will work directly with the founder - no layers, no bureaucracy. Your work will have immediate, measurable impact on whether real products succeed or fail.

To apply, include with your application:

• ONE sample of something you have created that people actually saw — a social account, a video, a blog post, an event, a brand (link or screenshot).
• Visit spokenact.com or search LilSense on the App Store and write 3 social media posts you would use to launch it. Any platform, any format.

Qualifications

• Junior or Senior undergraduate student at UW-Madison.
• GPA 3.0+ required.
• Journalism, Human Ecology, Communication Arts, Life Sciences Communication, Strategic Communication, Marketing, or related fields preferred — any major welcome if you have the drive.
• Has created something people actually engaged with — a social account, a campus event, a blog, a video series, a newsletter, a side project, a brand.
• Comfortable creating short-form content on a phone and writing social copy that sounds human, not corporate.

Requirements

• Execution Speed: Moves through a task list without getting stuck. Opens an account, posts content, switches to the next platform, and keeps going. Does not overthink.
• Follow-Through: Finishes what they start. Does not let things drop. Reliable under flexible conditions.
• Independence: Works without hand-holding. When something needs to happen, figures out how and does it.
• Proactive Mindset: Does not wait for instructions. Sees what needs to happen and moves. Brings ideas, not just questions.
• Communication: Strong written communication. Clear, concise, on-brand messaging across platforms.
• Content Creation: Can write a compelling social post and shoot a short-form video without a production team. Comfortable on platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, X, or LinkedIn.
• Learning Agility: Picks up new tools and platforms quickly. Open to feedback and rapid iteration.
• Judgment: Knows when to move fast independently and when to check in.

Benefits

• Flexible schedule built around your classes and summer availability.
• One standing weekly check-in with the founder.
• Remote work eligibility.
