About the role Make games with AI and turn them into short-form content. Perfect if you make TikToks and want to see how a startup grows from the inside. What is Star? Star is an AI-powered game creation platform - think "ChatGPT for making games." Describe a game and play it in seconds. No coding required. Just ideas. We're YC-backed and early-stage. You'll work directly with the founder and see everything: growth experiments, content strategy, what hits and what doesn't. What you'd actually do Make games on Star. Record the process. Turn it into short-form content that makes people say "wait, how did they do that?" You'll:
- Build games on Star and capture the creation process - the "I just made this" moment
- Create short-form videos (TikTok, Reels, Shorts) that show what's possible
- Own Star's social presence - you decide what to post, when, and how
- Experiment with hooks, formats, and trends to figure out what performs
You're not editing someone else's footage. You're the creator. You make the games, you make the content, you grow the audience.
