About the Role
Are you a TikTok-obsessed creator with a sharp eye for eCommerce success and a soft spot for STEM toys? Love turning raw clips into addictive scroll-stoppers? Great — because Techy Tikes is looking for a TikTok Editor & Social Media Manager to help take our short-form content to the next level.

You’ll be working alongside our founder (hi, that’s me – Madison ????), who handles all recording and voiceovers. You’ll manage the rest: trend research, scripting, editing, scheduling, and posting — a full TikTok content pipeline built for eComm magic.

Meet Techy Tikes
At Techy Tikes, we believe kids should grow up asking “why?” — and then figuring it out themselves. We're a STEM toy store on a mission to future-proof play for little explorers with big questions.

Founded in 2023, we curate open-ended, creativity-sparking toys that help kids develop real-world skills like problem-solving, coding, and critical thinking — all while having an absolute blast. From 3D printers to marble runs, our products are designed to do more than just sit pretty on a shelf.

We’re not just here to sell toys. We’re here to build a community of curious kids (and their awesome parents) who love learning through play. And we’re looking for a TikTok superstar who’s just as passionate about making STEM content scroll-stoppingly fun.

You’ll Be Responsible For:
This role includes editing and posting 21 TikToks per week (3/day). You’ll oversee the entire weekly TikTok workflow.
