- Manage and grow BillBoss's presence across social platforms (TikTok, Instagram, X, Reddit, etc.), including content strategy, community engagement, and trend-jacking.

- Gather user feedback and surface insights from the community to inform product, marketing, and partnership decisions.

- Analyze growth and campaign performance data to generate insights, optimize spend, and inform strategic decisions.

- Support creator and influencer outreach, including identifying talent, negotiating collaborations, and measuring impact, especially among college creators, foodie accounts, and lifestyle influencers.
