Media & Streaming Content Strategist

About the role

You are the architect of how MyFunded Futures talks to the world, owning the end-to-end strategy for long-form video, podcasts, and live streaming that defines our brand. You will act as the primary engine for content ideation, spotting cultural and trading trends before they peak, and translating complex market narratives into formats that drive awareness and community growth. This role requires you to own the creative and operational pipeline from raw concept to published hit, rigorously optimizing for watch time and retention. You will be the main liaison with Marketing to ensure every piece of content supports our broader brand campaigns and product launches. You are expected to move fast, ship boldly, and treat every piece of content as an experiment that can scale. If you are passionate about building a data-informed content engine in a high-growth, internet-native environment, this is your opportunity to leave a mark on a brand that traders actually want to follow.

Key facts

What you'll do

Own long-form and streaming content strategy end-to-end: YouTube, podcast, and live/streaming formats, from idea to publish.

Be the primary source of new content ideas: series concepts, one-off formats, trending hooks, and franchises worth repeating.

Build and manage a content calendar that keeps a consistent, high-quality cadence across every channel.

Develop original show formats that give traders a reason to subscribe, not just watch once.

Own the virality lens on every piece of content: the hook, the thumbnail, the title, the first ten seconds, whatever it takes to stop the scroll.

Partner directly with Marketing leadership to align content strategy with brand campaigns and launches.

Own production logistics: booking guests, scripting or outlining episodes, coordinating recording, and managing editors/producers.

Turn complex trading concepts into content that's genuinely engaging, not just educational.

Track channel performance (watch time, retention, subscriber growth, shares) and kill what's not working fast.

Stay plugged into creator trends, competitor channels, and what's about to blow up before it does.
