Social Media Lead

Our mission at Closing Theory is to create new, engaging experiences of play by merging games and the real world together.

House Rush is the real estate fantasy game, with real houses. We’re making the world’s most popular real estate game, with a never-before-seen twist in gaming - putting real houses into the game. Think Monopoly meets Zillow, where players guess house prices, buy, sell, and flip properties to build your very own real estate empire.

We are backed by world class investors in both the gaming and real estate space, like a16z, Powerhouse Capital (Scopely, Playtika), the co-founder & former CEO of Zillow, Keller Williams Family, stars of Million Dollar Listing, and more.

We are seeking a highly motivated and creative individual to lead, build and grow House Rush’s social media content creation and community engagement efforts. You are someone who lives on the For You Page, and loves creating unique, inspiring, and memorable content.

The ideal candidate is an ultra-creative content creator who has the intuition and daringness to make iconic content that people will talk about for days. This role will be pivotal in enhancing our brand presence, engaging with our community, and driving online and offline interactions.

• Be already based in Austin, TX (no relocation) and ability to work from our office in Mueller ~3 days per week.
• Flexibility to attend community events and activities outside of regular office hours as needed.

You Have

• Proven experience in social media content creation and community engagement.
• Unbounded creativity and a strong desire to try new, unproven, unconventional approaches

• Ability to work independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced environment.
• Experience with content creation tools (e.g.,Capcut, Adobe Creative Suite, Canva)
