About Us
At Chompshop, we make tools for the next generation of inventors, thinkers, and problem-solvers! Our ChompSaw is a kid-safe power tool for cutting cardboard that was designed to help young makers bring ideas to life and start building with their own two hands. Our startup was founded 2 years ago by Kausi (“cow-see”) and Max ("max") — graduates of the Integrated Product Design Master’s program at UPenn. We started with a dream of making hands-on skills un-intimidating and approachable by anyone. Since then, we've launched on Kickstarter, fine-tuned manufacturing, pitched on Shark Tank, and delivered thousands of ChompSaws and accessories to maker spaces, schools, museums, and homes across the country!
Who We Are
We are a small team of self-starters that believe in open-minded exploration, embracing mistakes as part of the journey, sparking creativity through play, and letting design-led creation shape our world. We're growing rapidly, and looking for a well-rounded marketer to join our team!
Who You Are
- You crush at writing copy that feels authentic, engaging, and friendly!
- You’re social-media curious (you don’t just scroll, you notice what works on social).
- You'd be comfortable jumping into conversations, answering questions, and making our community feel seen and supported.
- You're interested in startup culture and exploring organic ways to grow a business.
- You're resourceful, adaptable, and genuinely excited about empowering kids to create with their own two hands.
What You'll Do:
- Community Engagement – Respond to comments, DMs, and engage with other brands and creators on social media. Answer Amazon and website reviews with an informed brand voice and have a radar for escalating issues up the ladder when needed.
- Social Media Content Creation: Help plan, draft, and schedule content across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Pinterest, and YouTube.
- Copywriting: Write captions, blog posts, and emails that feel fun, approachable, and authentically “Chompshop.”
- Content Creation: Create and edit engaging short-form videos (Reels/TikTok) and assist with shoots with the chance to travel for events if you’re up for it!
What You'll Bring
- Strong writing and communication skills (funny, friendly, and to-the-point!).
- Knowledge of Meta Business Suite, Mailchimp, and a basic understanding of the Adobe Suite.
- Familiarity with Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook (bonus if you’ve managed brand accounts).
- Excited to collaborate with a small team but can also work independently. We need someone who can own their responsibilities while keeping an eye out for new marketing opportunities.
