About Kongi

Our mission is simple: to pay people for the shopping they already do. Kongi is available in the United States and Canada.
The role
We're looking for a Social Media & Video Editor to shape how Kongi shows up on social.
This is a hands-on, creative role for someone who thinks like a creator and knows what makes a video feel native to each platform. You'll be Kongi's in-house creator and editor, coming up with, shooting, editing and posting short-form video on TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and whatever comes next.
You'll also lead how Kongi talks with its community: spotting the trends, creators, brands and moments where Kongi belongs in the conversation.
What you'll do
Make social-first content
- Come up with, shoot, edit and post short-form video for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and new platforms.
- Take ideas from first thought to posted, on your own.
- Make fast-turn videos about shopping, finds, deals, style, creators and internet culture.
- Build recurring series that feel like Kongi and can grow over time.
- Turn launches and brand moments into videos that fit right into the feed.
- Try new formats, edits and platform features to keep our channels fresh.
Shape our short-form strategy
- Set Kongi's TikTok and short-form video strategy with the founding team.
- Stay close to creators, trends, sounds, formats and conversations as they happen.
- Read the numbers to see what's working, and use it in what you make next.
- Find ways to grow reach, engagement and followers through organic social.
Build our community
- Make Kongi part of the conversation, not just an account that posts.
- Lead community engagement on our channels, including commenting and joining relevant conversations.
- Find shoppers, brands, finds and stories that can become content.
- Bring what the community is saying back to the team.
What we're looking for
- Experience making social-first content for a brand, publisher, agency, creator or your own channels.
- Strong short-form video skills: you can come up with, shoot and edit a video on your own.
- A portfolio that shows you understand TikTok, Reels, Shorts and how stories work on each.
- Great instincts for what makes a video entertaining, shareable and part of the culture.
- A strong feel for US youth culture, shopping, style, creators and the internet.
- Sharp writing that changes tone for each platform and moment.
- You like moving fast and can jump on a trend within hours.
What success looks like
- A steady flow of social-native video made in-house.
- Growing organic reach, engagement and followers on our main platforms.
- 2–3 recurring series people start to connect with Kongi.
- Joining trends and conversations in hours, not days.
About you
You've probably already sent the video before it hits the group chat. You know a great post doesn't need a big production, just the right idea, the right edit and the speed to get it out. You love a good find, and you're just as interested in the people and conversations around it.
