Our Company

Roster is an AI hiring platform built for the creator economy. Our recommendation engine matches employers with the perfect creative talent - video editors, thumbnail designers, producers, and more - based on algorithmic matching of creative style.

Our platform is home to talent from over 150 countries who have worked with the biggest content creators in the world like MrBeast and Dude Perfect. Think of us as the IMDb for digital content -we catalog who works with which creators, and make those connections visible and accessible.

Top creators like Yes Theory (9M subscribers), Jesser (29M subscribers), and Airrack (16M subscribers) all build their teams through Roster.

The Opportunity

The content creation is a $100 billion industry, yet the HR infrastructure for the industry is still nascent. This makes sense considering full-time jobs such as Thumbnail Designer didn’t previously exist and the explosive growth of platforms like TikTok only happened in the last 5 years.

The reality is that every creator is a media business and production house, and therefore, need to hire a team. Traditional companies have LinkedIn, whereas businesses in the creative industry only have Upwork and Fivver. These avenues are filled with questionable quality freelancers and a customer journey that isn’t meant for creative work.

We have an opportunity to change this. Our vision is to become the definitive platform for creative services, using AI to create more jobs for creative professionals - not replace them.

Where We Are At

• Company: Our company officially launched in June 2024. Here is our launch announcement with The Information.
• Product: Roster was bootstrapped (we built our platform from scratch in under 3 weeks) and have been revenue-generating from day one.
• User & Growth: We’ve helped tons of creators hire a variety of roles, from Video Editors to C-suite executives. In the past 3 months, we have tripled our user base and we are looking to scale extensively.
• Financing: We raised an angel round and are backed by some of the most prominent individuals in the media and creator industry.

Our team is lean, but mighty. You will work closely with Mark Vu, our Head of Engineering, who was previously the Founding Engineer at Nas Company (series B creator economy startup building monetization tools, Lightspeed Venture Partners backed). Mark is now doing it over again at Roster. If you are interested in building in the Creator Economy from 0 to 1, Mark is eager to share his knowledge with you.
