Job details:
We're hiring a Cultural Radar & Founder Content Intern
Mediachondria Digital | Full-time | Mumbai | ₹10–15k/month
The honest version:
I'll be straight with you. I suck at producing video content. It's genuinely the thing I'm worst at as a founder. So I've stopped pretending I'll fix it alone. I'm hiring the person who will.
You'll be our agency's professional doomscroller, except we're paying you to turn internet rabbit holes into strategic intelligence, and to make me look good on camera while you're at it.
What you'll actually do, three things:
1. Be my cultural radar.
Scan LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, Substack, and the blogs that matter. Send me a daily "here's what actually matters today" brief: performance marketing moves, AI tools, BFSI trends, pop-culture moments worth stealing. Curate a weekly "steal this" list for our team. Find the signal in the noise so we consume great content and therefore make great content.
2. Film it.
One weekly shoot with me, 4-5 hours, phone only, coffee-shop-office vibes. No expensive setups, no Hollywood lighting. An iPhone, CapCut or InShot, and a good eye is all I need. Then edit through the week and ship.
3. Post it, and build the brand from zero.
Manage my personal brand, which, honestly, barely exists right now. That's the fun part. Turn our industry insights into founder content: Reels, LinkedIn videos, hot takes. You'll be employee #1 on content. This role didn't exist before you.
You're perfect for this if:
- You're annoyingly online. You already send friends "you HAVE to watch this" texts daily.
- You have taste. You can explain why something went viral beyond "the algorithm liked it."
- You ship. You've made Reels or videos (even just for fun) and you're not precious about perfect lighting.
- You're curious about marketing. You read Finshots or The Morning Context, you follow good marketers, you have opinions on ads.
Bonus points if:
- You're tool-obsessed. You've used ChatGPT for more than homework, and AI workflows (n8n, automations) sound fun, not scary. We love a builder.
- You run a meme page, newsletter, or tiny YouTube channel.
- You know the difference between a UPI transaction and a credit card (we work with BFSI clients).
- You can name 10 creators or marketers you follow religiously without Googling.
You're NOT right for this if:
- You think "I love social media" is a skill. Everyone loves scrolling.
- You need hand-holding. This role is figure-it-out-with-YouTube-and-ChatGPT.
- You're a perfectionist. We need "great and shipped," not "perfect and stuck."
- You just want to "gain experience." We need hunger, opinions, and taste. Not a résumé line-filler.
What you'll learn:
Content production (phone shoots, editing, founder content strategy), performance marketing context (how brands actually work, what good creative looks like), AI tooling if you want it, and the real skills: spotting patterns before they're trends, building a POV instead of reposting others', and moving fast without overthinking.
Where this goes:
This isn't a fetch-coffee internship. In 6-12 months you could grow into our Founder Content Manager, our Head of Content Intelligence, or someone who leaves to start their own cultural-insights consultancy because we trained you too well.
This is a prove-it, grow-fast setup. Start at ₹10–15k, show me what you can do, and we revisit the number after 3 months. Perform, and it goes up.
The deal:
Pay: ₹10–15k/month to start. I'm happy to bump it up based on performance after the first 3 months. If you're good, you won't have to ask twice.
Location: Mumbai-based.
How to apply:
Forget the CV and the cover letter. Send me a 30-second video on why you'd be great at this. Shot on your phone, unpolished is fine. That video is the interview, and it tells me everything I need to know about whether you can do this job.
Along with it, drop 3-5 pieces of content you saw THIS WEEK that made you go "damn, that's smart," with one line each on why it worked.

Subject: I'm your cultural radar intern
Deadline: Rolling. We'll close it when we find the right person.
Why us:
We're a performance marketing agency for BFSI clients (banks, fintechs, NBFCs, mutual funds). We care about substance over fluff. No generic agency jargon, no AI slop, no "let's ideate in the metaverse." Small team, so you'll actually shape things, not shadow someone for six months.
- P.S. If you're reading this thinking "wait, they'll pay someone to scroll Twitter and make Reels?" Yes. But only if you can turn the scrolling into strategic intelligence and the Reels into founder thought leadership. If that's your dream job, we should talk.
