At Dawn Campaigns Streamer Accelerator

The mission of the At Dawn Campaigns Streamer Accelerator is to grow small to mid-sized, values-aligned live video content creators (“livestreamers”) and increase their cultural relevance. 

For too long, the political right has dominated the livestreaming space, because their investments have dwarfed those made by moderates and progressives. 

Live content is the most authentic format, which leads to greater trust with audiences. It wins hearts and minds. Today, young audiences spend hours a day on live content platforms like YouTube and Twitch. 

The Streamer Accelerator works with bridge creators – creators that “bridge” the divide between culture and politics.

Position Summary: Communications Specialist

The At Dawn Streamer Accelerator is seeking a sharp, culturally fluent Communications Specialist to join our team. In this role, you will craft compelling written content across a range of formats – from short-form social copy and creator briefs to long-form memos. 

You understand how people talk on the internet, not just how brands wish they did. You can write for a Twitch chat one minute and a policy-focused audience the next. You're fast, adaptable, and not precious about your work. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career communications professional with a passion for politics, digital culture, and live content to grow within a scrappy, innovative team.

Key Responsibilities

Content Creation & Copywriting

  • Write engaging short-form copy for social media platforms including TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, X, Reddit, Discord, and Twitch — tailored to each platform's tone and audience.
  • Draft scripts, talking points, outlines, and briefing memos for livestreamers and content creators, supporting authentic livestream engagements.
  • Develop copy for digital assets including graphics, thumbnails, and email newsletters.
  • Write creator bios, channel descriptions, and platform profile copy that captures voice and audience appeal.
  • Support the development of materials for external stakeholders, including reports, program updates, and memos.

Campaign & Messaging Support

  • Collaborate with strategists and digital team members to develop messaging frameworks for creator channels.
  • Translate complex policy or political topics into accessible, engaging language suited for young, online audiences.
  • Support the development of creator-facing briefs that communicate goals, talking points, and content guidelines clearly and concisely.
  • Assist in coordinating communications workflows across the team, tracking deliverables, deadlines, and approval chains for messaging assets.

Editorial & Brand Voice

  • Maintain and evolve brand voice guidelines for the Accelerator program overall in close coordination with strategists.
  • Ensure consistency in tone and messaging across content formats and platforms.
  • Proofread and edit content produced by teammates, offering constructive feedback to strengthen clarity and impact.

Research & Cultural Listening

  • Stay current on internet culture, meme cycles, trending topics, and platform-native humor to keep copy fresh and relevant.
  • Monitor conversations on Reddit, Discord, X, and other platforms to identify emerging narratives and opportunities for creators to engage.
  • Conduct light research to support scripts, briefings, and campaign content on political and cultural topics.
  • Help synthesize findings into digestible communications reports or briefing documents for internal stakeholders and external partners.

Required Qualifications

  • 1–3 years of experience in copywriting, copywriting, digital marketing, public affairs, or a related field.
  • Strong examples demonstrating versatile writing across tones, formats, and audiences – especially digital and social content.
  • Deep familiarity with major social and live content platforms: TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, X, Reddit, Discord, and Twitch.
  • Demonstrated understanding of digital communications strategy, including platform selection, audience targeting, and message sequencing.
  • Ability to write quickly and adapt tone fluidly – from punchy and irreverent to clear and authoritative – depending on platform and audience.
  • Understanding of how live content differs from produced content, and how to write for authenticity rather than polish.
  • Excellent editing and proofreading skills with high attention to detail.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and comfort collaborating in a fast-moving, remote team environment.
  • Bachelor's degree in English, Communications, Journalism, Political Science, or a related field – or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience writing in communications or outreach roles at a political campaign, advocacy organization, PAC, nonprofit, or public affairs initiative.
  • Familiarity with progressive or moderate political messaging, issue framing, and voter or constituent communications.
  • Experience writing scripts, show notes, or content briefs.
  • Working knowledge of SEO principles and their application to YouTube and blog content.
  • Experience with email marketing platforms, CRM tools, or basic digital analytics dashboards.
  • Genuine enthusiasm for live content culture — you watch streams, you lurk in Discord servers, you know what cringe looks like before it lands.

What We Offer

  • A collaborative, fast-paced environment at the intersection of politics, strategy, culture, and content.
  • Mentorship and professional development within a growing public affairs firm pioneering new media strategy.
  • Exposure to high-profile campaigns, content creators, and live media programs with real cultural impact.
  • Fully remote, flexible work arrangements.

About At Dawn Campaigns

At Dawn Campaigns is building tomorrow's campaigns. From politics to public affairs, we are pioneering strategies that keep pace with new media and internet culture.

We build digital communities on emerging platforms, and when necessary, channel online energy into offline grassroots action. We lean into live content, because audiences crave the authenticity it demands – scripts be damned. We help our partners reach corners of the internet they didn't know existed, or at least don't visit. Because we live there.

Our team includes public affairs veterans, coalition builders, long-time political hacks, operatives at the cutting edge of digital media, strategic communicators, tech geeks, content creators, and our fair share of terminally online digital natives with expertise in cringe detection.

In the last election cycle, At Dawn Campaigns was the primary vehicle for gaming media outreach, targeting the young and mostly male voting demographic that is key to future electoral success. We also teamed up with content creators to produce livestream events that garnered tens of millions of views. Innovate, iterate, repeat.

Now, we are working with campaigns, candidates, causes, foundations, media companies, and content creators – and shaping what winning campaigns do next.
