Social Media Manager

We’re looking for a video-first content creator who is curious, self-driven, and obsessed with telling real, relatable stories from the world of hardware product manufacturing. This is not a typical “behind the desk” content role.

You’ll be on the floor, shooting, scripting, editing, and publishing high-impact content that captures:

• The real challenges of hardware startups building in India
• The unique solutions and processes that Karkhana.io brings to the table
• Thought leadership around EMS, Supply Chain, and Box Build Assembly
• The inside life of engineers and operations at Karkhana.io

This role blends storytelling, execution, and hustle.

You’ll also own the content style, voice, and storytelling formats for our leadership profiles, helping to build a consistent narrative across personal LinkedIn and other social handles.

Responsibilities

• Lead video content creation across platforms (LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram)
• Conceptualize, script, shoot, and edit short-form and long-form video content
• Collaborate with engineers, supply chain leads, and leadership to turn complex manufacturing problems into digestible stories
• Spotlight our Box Build capabilities, partnerships, success stories, and industry POVs
• Regularly feature our team and culture through behind-the-scenes videos

You Should Have

• 2–4 years of experience in content creation (agency, startup, or freelance)
• Strong skills in video production (shooting, editing, lighting, scripting)
• A bias for action – you’re not afraid to run around with a mic and camera
• Understanding (or willingness to learn) of hardware, manufacturing, and EMS
• Curiosity and storytelling instincts – you know how to make even niche topics engaging
• Familiarity with platforms like LinkedIn, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels

Bonus If You:

• Have worked with B2B or tech hardware startups
• Can also write short scripts, blog intros, or thought leadership posts
• Built your own content brand or side project
