Pickford AI seeks freelance paid specialist

Harlow’s job board lists Pickford AI hiring a part‑time freelance paid social specialist for about two days per week at $4,000/month to run and optimize Meta, TikTok and similar campaigns. The role was highlighted as a good early paid-social gig for building campaign and analytics experience. (x.com)

Pickford AI is hiring a freelance paid social media specialist for a short-term, part-time contract paying $4,000 a month. (builtin.com) The listing says the role is remote in California and starts as a one-month contract at two days per week. It asks for someone to run and optimize campaigns on Meta, TikTok and similar platforms. (builtin.com) Pickford’s posting says the contractor would spend some days launching and iterating campaigns and other days analyzing performance data, targeting, messaging and creative strategy. The company wants candidates with 2 to 5 or more years of paid social experience and a working knowledge of Meta Ads Manager and TikTok Ads. (jobs.workable.com) Paid social is the business of buying distribution on platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, then adjusting audience targeting, creative and budgets based on conversion data. Pickford’s ad says it wants someone who can turn “creative ideas into measurable growth,” tying marketing work directly to user acquisition and conversions. (freelance-jobs.meetharlow.com) The opening lands as Pickford pitches itself as an interactive entertainment company where audiences help shape stories in real time. On its website, the San Francisco company says it is building a system that makes audiences “co-creators rather than mere consumers.” (pickford.ai) That makes distribution a practical problem for the company: it is not selling a standard software tool or a traditional film release. The job ad says the specialist will help translate “a completely new kind of product” into ads that perform on consumer social platforms. (builtin.com) Pickford has been rolling out that pitch in public. An ElevenLabs case study published in October 2025 said Pickford’s project “Whispers” premiered at the Busan International Film Festival and lets audiences influence a murder mystery in real time. (elevenlabs.io) The company is also still small enough that one contractor can own a visible slice of growth. Workable’s careers page lists the paid social role as posted seven days ago, and company databases such as Crunchbase and PitchBook describe Pickford as a private startup with a headcount in the 1 to 10 range. (apply.workable.com, crunchbase.com, pitchbook.com) For freelancers, the terms are unusually specific: $4,000 a month, two days a week, one month to start, with the possibility the contract “may extend or expand over time.” That gives applicants a rare clear read on scope before they apply. (remotive.com) The posting is still live across Pickford’s Workable page and several job aggregators as of April 12, 2026. For a company trying to teach audiences a new format, the first hire in the funnel may be the person buying the clicks. (apply.workable.com, remotive.com)
