About The Position

Dolby is seeking a contractor to build and manage its presence across LinkedIn, X, and Reddit. This role requires a deep understanding of these platforms and Dolby's technology, focusing on building technical credibility and establishing Dolby as an industry voice. The position involves creating an executive visibility program on LinkedIn, acting as a fast, technically fluent voice on X, and building Dolby's identity on Reddit from scratch.

Requirements

6+ years in social media, community, or B2B content roles.
Real hands-on content ownership of Reddit, LinkedIn, and X, not just oversight.
Direct, credible experience building or growing a brand’s presence on Reddit specifically, including a track record of participating in communities before pitching.
Genuinely curious about audio and video technology.
Able to turn curiosity into a distinct point of view on LinkedIn.
Sharp understanding of how each platform’s algorithm, culture, and unwritten rules actually work.
Experience with executive ghostwriting, personal branding, or thought leadership programs at the manager level.
Comfortable owning ambiguity; building two of the three platforms from scratch with no existing playbook.
A fast, precise writer across registers: technical, credible, and human.
Experience with social listening, analytics, and reporting tools, and the judgment to turn data into a point of view.

Nice To Haves

Experience in consumer technology, audio and video, entertainment technology, or a technical B2B and B2C hybrid brand.
Existing relationships or credibility within audio, home theater, gaming, or developer communities.
Experience advising or managing senior executives directly.
