## Description

**About the Role**

Talarico for Texas is building a people-powered movement to take back power for working Texans. We are seeking a Digital Platforms Strategist to set and oversee execution of platform strategy across the campaign's social media presence, driving innovative approaches. This is a managerial role.

**Responsibilities**

-   Own platform-specific strategy — translating the campaign's broader digital goals into concrete plans for YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, and other platforms, and evolving those plans as each platform changes
-   Directly manage and oversee execution across the Content Manager team, ensuring platform strategies are being implemented effectively and on schedule
-   Identify and lead innovative digital initiatives beyond current platform playbooks — including how AI tools and AI-driven discovery (e.g., chatbots, AI search/SEO) intersect with the campaign's social presence
-   Monitor platform trends and shifts in the digital landscape, adjusting strategy to keep the campaign ahead of the curve rather than reactive to it
-   Partner with the Creative Director to align platform strategy with the campaign's overall creative and messaging direction

## Requirements

**Qualifications**

-   3+ years of experience in political communications, digital media, or a related field
-   Exceptional writing skills and strong editorial judgement
-   Fluent in new media platforms, social media, Reddit, Substack, and others
-   Deep familiarity with the evolving digital media landscape, including video trends and platform-specific best practices
-   Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
-   Ability to balance speed with quality in a rapidly adapting political environment
-   Willingness to work nights and some weekends
