Content & Brand Producer

About Charge

Charge Robotics is a Series A startup building robots that build solar farms.

Demand for new solar projects is booming (one-fifth of all the solar that exists in the US was installed last year!), but today’s construction companies can’t keep up due to limited labor resources.

We thought this was insane, so we developed robots to directly address this bottleneck and speed up the world’s transition to renewables. We’ve shipped our first commercial system already, and are in the process of scaling up our operations to meet our massive demand.

Charge is a fast-moving company, which means constant opportunities for learning and growth. You’ll have a large impact on the direction of our company and our product, which will be reflected in significant equity compensation. And you get to work with 🤖 giant robots 🤖.

If you are excited to work on interesting technical problems with direct climate impact, you’re going to fit right in at Charge Robotics.

We’re MIT-founded and backed by Silicon Valley’s top investors, including Founders Fund, Energy Impact Partners, Lux Capital, YC (S21), and more.

About the role

You'll be our first dedicated content hire. You'll embed with our engineering, manufacturing and field teams, film Sunrise building solar farms, and turn it into a steady stream of videos, posts and stories on LinkedIn, Instagram, X and our blog. Your job is to make Charge a brand that customers, future teammates and the wider energy world recognize and follow.

This role is structured as contract-to-hire: start hourly, convert to full-time. See bottom for details.

What you'll be working on:

• Building our digital brand: Own the publishing calendar for LinkedIn, Instagram, X and the blog, cut each piece for its platform, and shift the mix toward what's working

• Turning our product + engineering journey into stories: Translate the R&D happening daily at our HQ into clips, threads, photo sets and blog posts that powerfully tell the story of our product, company, and industry

• Keeping the content engine humming: Keep an organized footage library the team can pull from for decks, press and recruiting, and create shot lists so field techs can capture usable footage when you're not on site

• Amplifying founders and launches: Help draft and package founder posts, talks and podcast clips, and work with our PR agency on announcements

• Filming Sunrise in the field: Travel to active solar sites to capture the system in motion, from wide aerials to tight mechanism shots and crew interviews, working safely alongside our field team

You:

• Have strong creative judgment and self-direction (a stellar portfolio beats degrees or years of experience), and have independently produced content in a professional setting before, whether in-house, at an agency, or as a freelancer or creator

• Have a storyteller’s instinct - you can find and create narrative arcs in video and writing alike, matching tone and style to audience and platform

• Write clearly and powerfully, and can turn a technical idea into a sharp LinkedIn post or a readable blog paragraph

• Have editing fluency and platform expertise, with a good instinct for how to distill our brand pillars into the right channels (LinkedIn, X, Instagram, Blog) and reach the right audiences

• Are genuinely excited about solar, climate, and robotics: you believe the energy transition is now a race to build, you want to show the world how robots like Sunrise get solar into the ground at the speed the climate needs, and that conviction comes through in everything you make

• Are based in or can relocate to the SF Bay Area, and able to work 4-5 days/week from our San Leandro HQ

• Are open to 15% travel to field (solar construction sites all over the US) to film our product and team at work in our deployment environment, often in remote locations with harsh outdoor conditions

It'd also be nice if you:

• Are or want to be a drone pilot, with an FAA Part 107 license and aerials in your reel, or are willing to get certified in your first month (we’ll cover it). Utility-scale solar sites span hundreds of acres, and aerials are how people grasp the scale and impact of our system

• Have visual range beyond shooting and editing video, like still photography or light motion graphics

• Have experience creating content for hardware, climate, energy or construction companies

• Have worked at an early-stage startup and like the pace of work

Structure of the role:

The first 3 months are a full-time W-2 contract with a conversion decision against agreed-upon goals. After conversion, the role converts to full-time base plus equity and benefits.
