Social Media Manager
Ostium is on a simple mission: make it possible for anyone with a digital wallet to trade stocks, commodities, currencies, and crypto with full transparency. No brokers, no freezes, no hidden spreads. We’re replacing the opaque, offshore brokerage model with a transparent, permissionless trading stack built onchain. Every trade, deposit, and withdrawal is verifiable through open, auditable code. We’ve raised $27.9M+ from General Catalyst, Jump, LocalGlobe, Susquehanna (SIG), GSR, Alliance DAO, Soma Capital, Balaji Srinivasan, Meltem Demirors, and others.
About the role
We need someone who can shape how traders feel about onchain markets - in real time.
You understand that crypto trading isn’t just numbers on a screen - it’s adrenaline, conviction, macro narratives, and people placing big bets based on what’s happening right now. You know how to take that energy and turn it into content that moves volume.
You don’t wait for stories - you catch them the moment they emerge. A whale switches to Ostium? A major macro move hits? A new asset pair opens? You’re already drafting the post. You get why traders deposit, why they hesitate, and what pushes them over the edge.
This role is less “social calendar management” and more high-velocity market storytelling that keeps Ostium at the center of the conversation.
We’re scaling fast: from $500M to $27B+ in onchain volume since March
