Job description

Quippy (YC F26) is a daily practice room for the conversations people dread. You pick a real situation, like disagreeing with your manager or starting a conversation at a party, rehearse it with a realistic scene partner by voice or text, and get honest, line-by-line feedback on what landed. The app is live on the App Store.

You will be our first marketing hire. You will own how people find Quippy and why they tell their friends. The product gives you a lot to work with: almost everyone has a conversation they keep replaying in their head.

• You make and publish content quickly, without waiting for a brief
• You read the numbers and double down on what works
• You know what it feels like to replay a conversation in your head

• What you build reaches real users within days
• A small team in San Francisco, backed by Y Combinator
