Director of Social

About Us:
At Read AI we’re making the workplace better by acting as the ultimate AI assistant and allowing any individual and workplace leader to know their business in real time. Our platform supercharges productivity across meetings, email, messages, CRM, and workflow tools and integrates seamlessly with  Google, Microsoft, Zoom, Notion, Salesforce, Jira, Slack, and every other popular tool without complex setup. We meet users wherever they are to take care of all the most mundane aspects of the week: notetaking, scheduling, prioritization, information sharing and search, out of office management, onboarding, offboarding, and more. Read AI helps individuals stay on track and teams move forward faster, wherever and however they collaborate.

Backed by $81 million in funding from Smash Capital, Madrona, and Goodwater Capital, Read AI is growing. If you're excited to shape the future of AI-powered work and want to make an impact at a product-focused startup, we’d love to meet you.

Role Overview

We’re seeking a Director of Social to build and lead our social media presence from the ground up. This is a hands-on, strategic, and creative role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, understands the cultural zeitgeist, and can turn a small, under-resourced program into a powerful, resonant brand voice. You’ll be responsible for shaping our social strategy, developing personas, and creating content that is authentic, lo-fi, and conversation-starting—think “Duolingo on a shoestring,” not “corporate perfection.” You’ll work closely with the VP of Communications, our founder, and agency partners.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and execute a social media strategy that aligns with Read AI’s brand, product launches, and growth goals.

• Build and manage our presence on core channels (LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Instagram, and emerging platforms).

• Create and curate engaging, text-driven content—memes, personas, “overheard in the office,” and more—that sparks conversation and reflects our unique culture.

• Experiment with new formats and ideas, embracing trial and error over polish.

• Collaborate with internal stakeholders and agency partners to amplify product news, thought leadership, and key company moments.

• Track and analyze social metrics to inform strategy and demonstrate impact.

• Stay ahead of trends in tech, AI, and digital culture, bringing fresh ideas to the table.

Qualifications

• Proven experience growing social media accounts for a startup, tech brand, or creative organization—ideally from early stages to significant scale.

• Deep understanding of internet culture, platform nuances, and what makes content shareable.

• Exceptional writing and storytelling skills; comfort with lo-fi, experimental content.

• Ability to work independently and collaboratively, with a bias for action and creativity.

• Strong analytical skills and familiarity with social analytics tools.

• Bonus: Experience with influencer campaigns, paid social, or community management.

• Why Read AI?

  • Innovative:  We bring AI to the masses with proactive technology that acts as the ultimate AI assistant. Built on our proprietary, patented technology, Read AI takes notes, surfaces information, facilitates collaboration, and learns you, making individuals and teams more effective.  

  • Massive Impact:  AI's greatest impact will be on the ability to allow people to do more, taking away mundane tasks, and guiding them to the next best action.  

  • Growth Opportunities:  Read AI is the fastest growing AI-copilot and meeting notetaker in history, and is one of the leading AI companies in the world, adding more than 1MM new customers every month.
