About the role

Consumer products don't grow off one launch. They grow off launching again and again — every ship being a reason for someone to look at you a second time. Right now we ship faster than we tell anyone about it. That's the job.

What they're looking for

  • You've put something into the world publicly — a channel, a newsletter, an account, a side project with real users — and you can point us to it
  • You're comfortable on camera and not precious about it. Rough and fast beats polished and late
  • You write clearly, quickly, and in a human voice
  • You're genuinely interested in points and miles, or you'll be deep in it inside a week because that's how you are about new things
  • You'd rather figure out the playbook than be handed one. We don't have one yet — you'll be writing it with us
  • Remote works for you, but you're relentlessly reachable and move at our pace

Roame is Google Flights for points and miles. We search 180+ airlines across 28+ loyalty programs and return real-time award availability in about twelve seconds — something that used to take our founders dozens of hours of manual searching across a dozen browser tabs.

The core search is free. Our membership unlocks the serious tooling on top of it. We just shipped hotel stays: members book hotels through Roame and get our commission rebated back to them immediately. For most people, one booking pays for the membership.

We're small, we ship constantly, and the points community is unusually good at noticing when someone builds them something good.

We're not launching to manufacture momentum ahead of a raise, and we're not going to run out of money and quietly cut marketing in nine months. We launch because launching repeatedly is the only way consumer products stay alive — and because we can afford to pay someone well for doing it out of revenue rather than runway.

Consumer products don't grow off one launch. They grow off launching again and again — every ship being a reason for...
