We're looking for daring, ambitious, and "a little crazy" people — those who love building real products and dream of launching cool startups. You have the ambition; we have the conditions to make it happen.

Your Project:

Hily. This app allows users to be truly yourself and enjoy dating as they are. With Hily our users become part of a dating community where authentic people are looking for real connections.

You Will:

• You have proven experience in consumer, product, lifestyle, tech, or corporate PR.
• You have a track record of securing brand mentions in top-tier US and/or UK media outlets — or you're very eager to gain some.
• You write and speak English fluently and can create polished press releases, pitches, and expert comments with minimal editing.
• You know what makes a story newsworthy and can turn an idea, a data point, or a trend into a pitch journalists want to open and cover.
• You are highly organized, reliable with deadlines, and able to manage several campaigns and tasks at the same time.
• You're not afraid to experiment and try new approaches.
• You love winning, and if you lose, it's only temporary.
• You care about quality, move quickly when needed, and want to see your work turn into real media coverage.
• You're ready for the next big chapter of your career.

Will Be An Advantage:
