Company Description

AirKitchenz is an innovative marketplace that transforms underutilized restaurant kitchen spaces into opportunities for revenue during off-hours. By providing access to these spaces, we empower food startups and entrepreneurs to launch their businesses quickly, cost-effectively, and with reduced risks. Leveraging advanced AI tools, AirKitchenz streamlines processes such as menu creation and market entry, enabling food businesses to expand or test new markets seamlessly. Our mission is to propel innovative food ventures by bridging the gap in kitchen accessibility.

We are also preparing to launch a new, first-to-market product designed to transform how food businesses operate. This role will play a key part in bringing that product to market and building early traction.

Role Overview

This is an equity-based founding role; salaries will begin as the company generates revenue or raises funding.

This is a founding team role, not a traditional marketing position.

You will own social media and organic growth end-to-end. The expectation is clear: build, grow, and scale our presence from zero.

This role requires someone who is hands-on, fast, creative, and comfortable operating in a startup environment where things move quickly and change often.

What You’ll Do

1. Own & Scale Social Media

Manage and grow across:

Instagram
TikTok
LinkedIn
X (Twitter)
Reddit (key channel)
YouTube Shorts
Facebook Groups
Discord / community platforms
Emerging platforms (you identify and test)

You will turn these into core acquisition channels, not just content feeds.

2. Content Creation (Daily Execution)

Create short-form content consistently (Reels, TikTok, Shorts)
Document the founder journey and company build in real time
Produce:
Educational content
Behind-the-scenes content
Viral-style content
Community-driven content

You should be comfortable filming, editing, and publishing independently.

3. Organic Growth & Distribution

This role is organic-first by design.

Build and execute Reddit growth strategies (posting, commenting, seeding discussions)
Engage in niche communities (food entrepreneurs, chefs, startups)
Leverage:
Reddit threads
Facebook groups
Discord communities
Niche forums

You are expected to find and exploit non-obvious growth channels.

4. Affiliate & Influencer Growth

Identify, recruit, and manage micro-influencers and creators
Build affiliate-style partnerships that drive measurable user acquisition
Work directly with influencers or through platforms/agencies
Structure collaborations that are performance-driven and scalable

5. Community Building

Engage directly with users (DMs, comments, conversations)
Build a strong early community
Turn attention into users and advocates

6. AI-Driven Marketing

Use AI tools to accelerate content creation, ideation, and distribution
Leverage AI for:
Content generation
Editing and repurposing
Trend analysis
Workflow automation

Efficiency and speed are critical.

7. Experimentation & Creative Growth

Test new formats, hooks, and channels continuously
Execute unconventional ideas:
Viral loops
Founder-led storytelling
Street-level activations
Creator collaborations

Who You Are

You have grown or can grow accounts from 0 → traction
You are highly hands-on (execution > strategy only)
You understand what drives engagement and growth
You can build and manage creator and affiliate relationships
You are comfortable talking to people and building community
You move fast and adapt quickly
You think like a builder, not an employee

What This Role Requires

Startup mindset: fast-paced, constantly evolving
High ownership and accountability
Strong creativity and execution ability
Comfort operating with resource constraints and focusing on organic growth

Why This Is Different

Founding team role with real impact
Build the brand from zero
Direct collaboration with the founder
Opportunity to help launch a category-defining product
Equity upside tied to long-term success

How to Apply

Send:

Short introduction
Links to accounts you’ve grown
Examples of content you’ve created
