Comedy Scriptwriter -Remote
About The Position
LumiMeds is a fast-growing telehealth company in the compounded GLP-1 and metabolic health space. We're building a brand that actually connects with people, and we need a writer who knows how to make them laugh. This is not a "write captions" role. You'll be the creative engine behind our short-form comedy content, writing scripts for TikTok and Instagram Reels that are sharp, on-brand, and genuinely funny. You'll work closely with our Social Media Manager and on-camera talent to develop concepts, punch up hooks, and turn wellness topics into content people actually want to watch. The right person for this role understands the rhythm of short-form comedy. You know how to land a joke in 15 seconds, write for a specific voice, and make a GLP-1 medication brand feel human without crossing compliance lines.
Requirements
- A portfolio of short-form comedy writing. Spec scripts, published content, personal account, anything that shows you can be funny in under 60 seconds
- Strong understanding of TikTok and Reels formats, trends, and what makes content perform
- Ability to write for someone else's voice, not just your own
- Fast ideator. You can generate 10 concepts, know which 2 are worth pursuing, and move quickly
- Comfortable working in a regulated space and willing to learn the guardrails
- Professional-level English communication
- Availability to work U.S. business hours
Nice To Haves
- Experience writing for health, wellness, or lifestyle brands
- Background in sketch, improv, or comedy writing in any format
- Familiarity with what's trending in the GLP-1 or weight loss conversation online
- On-camera presence and willingness to appear in content
- Experience writing for specific talent or creators
- Spanish or Tagalog fluency
Responsibilities
- Write scripts and concepts for short-form comedy content across TikTok and Instagram Reels
- Develop recurring formats, characters, and comedic angles rooted in the wellness and weight loss space
- Collaborate with the Creative Director and Social Media Manager on content calendars, hooks, and creative direction
- Write for specific on-camera talent, adapting to their voice, timing, and delivery style
- Ideate and pitch new concepts weekly, kill what doesn't land, build on what does
- Work within FDA and FTC compliance guidelines for healthcare content (we'll train you, but you have to be open to it)
- Optionally appear on camera if you're comfortable, but not required
