Social Media Coordinator (Contract)

Who we are at Osmo:

Osmo is a digital olfaction company, on a mission to give computers a sense of smell to improve the health and wellbeing of human life. Why? Our sense of smell both enriches and saves lives, and has a deep and direct connection to our emotions and memory. This foundational understanding of smell's impact has directly informed the development of our latest innovation: Generation.

Generation is a new kind of fragrance house powered by Olfactory Intelligence (OI) to blend AI with world-class perfumery. It will help brands create emotionally resonant scents faster, more accessibly, and with greater creative clarity. Our technology allows us to explore vast scent possibilities, discover novel ingredients, and design fragrances informed by both data and artistry.

Beyond fragrance, Olfactory Intelligence has applications across industries including manufacturing, security, medicine, and more. We believe in the power of automation and thoughtfully applied AI/ML to solve problems beyond the reach of human intuition alone. Osmo is headquartered in New York, NY, with a new facility in New Jersey, and offices in Somerville, MA.

Osmo is seeking a Social Media Coordinator (Contract) to capture and create content that brings our fragrance house (Generation by Osmo), collaborators, and culture to life across platforms. This is a hybrid role based in NYC, with 1-2 days per week spent filming in our office and lab.

This role is part-time (15-18 hours/week) with potential to expand in scope.

You will report to the Brand & Content Lead and work closely with our design and marketing teams to translate the creative and scientific capabilities of Generation by Osmo into consistent, platform-native content.

• Can be on-site in NYC 1-2 times per week.
