Meme Content Creator (Politics & News)

Overview:

TaskForce is hiring a Meme Content Creator who lives at the intersection of politics, news, and internet culture. This is a high-speed, high-output role for someone who can take a breaking headline at 9:07am and turn it into a viral post by 9:12. You’ll report directly to the editorial/audience lead and be responsible for creating content that doesn’t just react to the conversation, but shapes it. If you’re terminally online, politically sharp, and actually funny (not “brand funny”), this is for you.

What You’ll Do

Make memes. Lots of them.

  • Produce daily, high-volume meme content across Reddit, Instagram, X and beyond
  • Turn news, political narratives, and cultural moments into clear, shareable content - fast
  • Write sharp, funny, on-message captions that actually land

Move at the speed of the internet

  • Jump on trends early and execute quickly
  • Create reactive content around breaking news, debates, speeches, and major moments
  • Be available when the moment calls for it

Own the platforms (Reddit-first)

  • Post and optimize content across subreddits and social platforms
  • Understand tone, format, and what works where
  • Engage when it helps performance, know when to lean in and when to stay invisible

Bring ideas, not just execution

  • Pitch concepts in daily brainstorms
  • Spot trends before they peak
  • Find smart, unexpected ways to insert messaging into culture

Get better every week

  • Pay attention to what hits and what flops
  • Use feedback and performance to sharpen your instincts
  • Continuously evolve your formats, tone, and approach

Requirements

  • 2–5 years making memes or social content (politics, media, or culture preferred)
  • Deep fluency in internet culture, formats, and platform dynamics
  • Strong grasp of U.S. politics and the daily news cycle
  • Proven ability to be fast and good
  • A real sense of humor (you know the difference)
  • Strong copy instincts.. short, sharp, and scroll-stopping
  • Proficiency in tools like Photoshop, Canva, CapCut, or similar
  • Comfort working in a fast-moving, feedback-heavy environment

Benefits

  • Competitive salary commensurate with experience $65k - $80k
  • Full health insurance coverage and dental/vision benefits.
  • 401k retirement savings plan with company match.
  • Generous paid vacation and 14 annual company holidays.
  • Monthly wellness stipend.
