Position summary

We are looking for a relentless Affiliate Manager to build and lead our external influencer network. This role isn't for a standard corporate account manager-it is for someone who has "been there and done that."

We are looking for a builder. You have successfully grown your own audience in the past, so you understand the algorithms, the grind, and the language of the creator economy. Now, you are ready to pivot from being the talent to managing the talent. You will identify, recruit, and manage a roster of external finance creators, influencers, and community leaders, empowering them to promote WallStreetBets and our suite of tools to their audiences.

What you'll do

• Recruit & Scout: actively hunt for high-potential finance creators across X (Twitter), YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram who align with the WSB mission. You know how to spot talent before they go viral.
• Relationship Management: Serve as the primary mentor and manager for our external affiliate network. You speak their language because you've been in their shoes.
• Program Strategy: Design and execute the roadmap for our influencer program, including commission structures, incentive tiers, and creative challenges to keep our affiliates motivated.
• Content QA: Review external affiliate content to ensure it hits the right tone, remains compliant with financial regulations, and effectively converts viewers into WSB users.
• Performance Tracking: Analyze the ROI of individual influencers. Identify who is driving real value versus vanity metrics, and double down on the winners.
• Asset Distribution: Work with our internal creative team to supply your army of influencers with high-converting hooks, graphics, and talking points.

What you bring

• Creator Experience: You have built a personal audience of your own (on any major platform). You understand what makes a post go viral and how to build community trust.
• Experience: 2-4+ years in Affiliate Marketing, Influencer Marketing, or Talent Management.
• The Eye: You can distinguish between a "grifter" and a genuine creator. You know who has real influence and who just bought bots.
• People Skills: You are a natural networker. You can slide into DMs, build rapport quickly, and negotiate deals that make sense for both sides.
• Data Literacy: You understand the difference between CPM, CPC, and CPA. You can look at a dashboard and tell us exactly which influencers are profitable.
• Hustle: You are comfortable working with creators across different time zones and adapting to the 24/7 nature of social media.

Bonus

• Existing Network: You already have personal relationships with finance/crypto influencers.
• Platform Expertise: Deep technical knowledge of YouTube SEO or TikTok algorithms.
• Crisis Management: Experience handling PR issues or "cancels" within a community context.

What we offer

• Competitive compensation and meaningful growth opportunities.
• 401k Match, 80% healthcare coverage, and 100% vision and dental coverage. Unlimited PTO, and fully remote.
• The opportunity to build a platform used by millions of passionate traders around the world.
• A mission-driven environment dedicated to democratizing financial tools and insights.
• A remote-friendly culture with flexibility and trust.
• A chance to help shape one of the most recognizable brands in modern finance.
• A collaborative, fast-paced team that values experimentation, creativity and fun.
• A culture of engineering excellence and growth mindset.
