## Job description

What is Fizz

Fizz is America’s biggest college social app, allowing Gen Z to connect around their shared experiences and identities. College Fizz communities feature a private, moderated feed of posts from verified students, making it the most entertaining and authentic way to experience student life. Our newest product, Global Fizz, brings together all of Gen Z nationwide, providing a space to satisfy the 99% of life not on entertainment platforms like Instagram and TikTok. Fizz is on a mission to bring social back to social media.

## What we’ve done

We first launched Fizz at Stanford in July 2021 and have since seen >95% of undergraduates join the app, half of which use Fizz every day. Since raising a $25M Series B in July 2023, we have established ourselves as the dominant community platform at 700+ colleges, have begun to generate revenue through advertising, and are actively expanding to communities beyond college.

## About the Role

We have several openings for Social Media Interns on our Growth team. In this role, you’ll manage multiple Fizz-branded Instagram accounts, with real ownership over content, posting cadence, and day-to-day growth.

This internship is ideal for someone who enjoys social media, understands internet culture, and wants hands-on experience running accounts—not just observing. You’ll work closely with our Growth team while being trusted to make creative decisions that align with both the Fizz brand and current trends.

This is an hourly, paid, remote internship requiring 15 to 20 hours per week.

## Responsibilities

- Manage multiple Fizz-branded Instagram accounts
- Source, curate, and create content aligned with Fizz’s brand and current internet trends
- Build and maintain a posting calendar to ensure consistent cadence across all assigned accounts
- Take ownership of content decisions, including identifying trends that fit each page and its audience
- Monitor account performance and adjust content strategy as needed
- Collaborate with Growth members to support broader growth initiatives
- Attend team meetings and 1:1s, providing regular updates on progress and account performance

## Qualifications

- Current college student (18+) with familiarity with the Fizz product
- Strong understanding of Instagram and social media best practices
- Comfortable working independently and taking initiative
- Strong written communication and attention to detail
- Ability to manage time effectively and meet posting expectations
- Available to work 15 - 20 hours per week, with hours distributed consistently

This is a remote internship (up to 15 hours per week) starting with a one-month commitment and potential for extension. The compensation range is $14-20 per hour, depending on location. This role is open to candidates located in the following states: FL, GA, IL, IN, KY, LA, MA, MD, NJ, NY, OK, OR, PA, RI, TN, TX, VA, DC, and WI.

## About Fizz

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Fizz is a private, authenticated social networking platform that connects college students with their hyperlocal campus communities through anonymous posts, feeds, and a marketplace.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series B; latest SAFE investment with a $200M valuation cap)
- **Headquarters**: New York, NY, USA (primary office at 584 Broadway; also has an office in Palo Alto, CA)
- **Founded**: 2020
- **Founders**: Ashton Cofer (Co-Founder & CTO) and Teddy Solomon (Co-Founder & CEO)

## Core Business
- Primary industry: Social networking platforms
- Target customers: B2C – college and university students (currently 800+ campuses onboarded, 1M+ US users)
- Mission or purpose statement: “Redefine the definition of a true social network” by creating safe, authentic, hyperlocal communities, starting with college.

## Products & Services
- **Fizz App**: A mobile social platform (iOS) where verified students can post anonymously, share photos/videos/polls/confessions, scroll a “for you” feed, and buy/sell items via an in-app marketplace. Features include community-based moderation and direct messaging.
- **Fizz Advertising**: Branded polls, native app takeovers, in-feed ads, and audience targeting (by campus, state, college tier, age, etc.). Early advertisers include Sony Pictures, Amazon, Perplexity, Kalshi, Quizlet, and Cerca.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: $200M valuation cap on the most recent SAFE investment (date undisclosed; ~2026). Not publicly traded.
- **Key Metric**: Annual Revenue ~$4.5M (estimated); Total Funding ~$42.25M ($41.5M per Tracxn).
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: New Enterprise Associates (led Series A), Owl Ventures (led Series B), Rakesh Mathur (led Seed), and an undisclosed strategic round with celebrities, creators, and tech execs.
- **Growth Signals**: 
  - 75 employees (+5.5% YoY); headcount is growing despite slight monthly dip.
  - 2.2M+ global downloads, 1M+ monthly active users, ~50% daily active usage.
  - Expanded internationally to Saudi Arabia and Kuwait in early 2026; average user age in Middle East is 25.
  - Revenue positive (first time for a free social platform); building out ad sales team.
  - Hired Andrew Zalk (ex-Flipboard) as Head of Business Solutions to scale advertising.
  - Planning to expand beyond college in the US by 2027.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Authentic hyperlocal focus**: Verified .edu email login ensures a trusted, campus-specific community – reminiscent of early Facebook.
- **Privacy & moderation**: Anonymous posting with full identity control and a combination of AI + human moderators. Rated 18+ on App Store (no high schoolers).
- **Engagement moat**: Strong daily active usage (50% of active users every day) and virality within college networks.
- **Advertiser appeal**: Direct access to Gen Z in a brand-safe, authenticated environment with granular targeting; already attracting major entertainment, AI, and finance brands.

## Strategic Focus
- **Advertising revenue**: Scaling the ad sales team and account management to turn Fizz into a sustainable advertising business (currently generating revenue).
- **Global expansion**: Deepening presence in the Middle East (Saudi Arabia, Kuwait) and piloting subscription plans for that region.
- **Beyond college**: Preparing to launch Fizz for the broader post-graduate “real world” in 2027, targeting users aged 18–30+.
- **Product evolution**: Experimenting with direct messaging features, subscription tiers, and new user behaviors (e.g., using the platform for local discovery in cities).

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Mission-driven team of ~75 people working to “make social media social again” – fast-paced, startup environment with roots at Stanford.
- **Office & flexibility**: HQ in New York City (584 Broadway) and a Palo Alto office; likely hybrid/remote-friendly given small team and engineering roles (lead iOS engineer, etc.).
- **Growth opportunities**: Early-stage company with aggressive expansion plans (ad sales, global markets, new verticals) – employees can shape a product that could become the next major social network.
- **Notable perks/engineering culture**: Work on a high-traffic consumer app (2.2M+ downloads); engineering team is small but impactful; founder-led with deep product involvement.
- **Active hiring**: Currently recruiting a User Acquisition Manager; frequent past hires from top universities and companies like Starbucks, Target, and Deloitte.
