Technical Social Media Manager
About the role
We drive growth and create authentic technical content for the world's best tech companies. Our clients are the developer tools you've heard of and many you haven't yet. Our job is to make their products make sense to the engineers who'd love them; social is a big part of how we do that.
You'll own the social presence for Hackmamba's portfolio of developer tool clients. LinkedIn and X are home base. You'd write posts that developers actually engage with, not because they're optimized for reach, but because they're genuinely interesting.
Responsibilities
- Thought leadership posts that position clients as the people worth listening to
- Technical takes that spark conversation without being hot takes for the sake of it
- Community-building content: threads, replies, reshares that actually add to the discourse
- Campaign content tied to product launches, events, and announcements
- Trend-watching: if something's moving through the developer community, you're already on it
You'll work closely with technical writers, content strategists, and client teams — so you're not making things up in a vacuum. You'll have context. You'll know the product. You'll write like someone who gets both.
Requirements
- You understand how developers think. You don't have to have shipped production code, but you need to genuinely follow the space, the tooling, the debates, the stuff people are actually building.
- You're active on LinkedIn or X. Not necessarily with a huge following, but with a real presence. We want to see how you write, not just what you say you can do.
- You're extroverted online. You reply to people. You start conversations. You engage because you find it interesting, not because the content calendar says to.
- You can write a post that makes someone stop scrolling. Clean, direct, technically credible. You know the difference between a post that informs and one that actually travels.
- You're comfortable managing multiple brand voices. One week you're writing like a database company, the next like a developer security tool, and you keep them distinct.
- You're based in Europe or the US and work well remotely.
Nice to have
- You've managed social for a developer tool, API company, or technical SaaS brand.
- You've grown an audience of your own, even a small one.
- You have a sense of what makes technical content work differently on LinkedIn versus X.
Benefits
- 20 days holiday a year, plus your local public holidays
Pay
Salary: competitive, and we'll be specific once we talk
Schedule
Fully remote, outcome-based. We care that the content is good and the numbers move, not that you were online at 9am.
About us
We love what we do, which sounds like a line until you meet us. We're builders. We ship. We give each other real feedback. We don't do performative hustle, and we don't do meetings that should have been a Loom.
