Social Media Manager

We’re looking for a social-first storyteller who can bring the world of hardware manufacturing to life through engaging content with a strong emphasis on video-led narratives. This is not a “sit behind the desk” role. You’ll be on the floor, brainstorming, scripting, shooting, and publishing content that sparks conversation and builds community across LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, and beyond.

You’ll shape our content voice, own our digital storytelling formats, and create campaigns that highlight :

The real challenges of hardware startups building in India

The unique solutions and processes Karkhana.io brings to the table

Thought leadership around EMS, Supply Chain, and Box Build Assembly

The everyday stories of engineers, operators, and leaders at Karkhana.io

Think of this role as a mix of strategy + creativity + execution where you’ll ideate, create, and publish with speed and consistency. You’ll also own the content style, voice, and storytelling formats for our leadership profiles, helping to build a consistent narrative across personal LinkedIn and other social handles.

You Should Have

Bonus If You :
