About NexScale

NexScale is an AI-native software company, led by Soodeh Farokhi, PhD., a serial tech entrepreneur and seasoned executive with a strong team of builders, fitness operators, and product leaders, on a mission to extend human longevity of tomorrow by scaling wellness & fitness businesses today.

Our flagship product, NexScale Chloe, already launched in the market and available for studios across Canada and the US, is an AI Business Partner for boutique wellness and fitness studio owners that helps owners improve member retention, reduce burnout, build stronger communities, and scale their business.

We are not building yet another generic SaaS platform or AI agent. We are the category-leading agentic AI platform for the wellness & fitness sector. We have built a proprietary agentic AI platform for this vertical that reason, decide, and act inside real business operations—without increasing cognitive load for non-technical operators.

About This Digital Marketing & Content Internship

This is not a surface-level 'post on social and make graphics' role.

This role is best suited for candidates who already have hands-on experience in digital marketing, content marketing, visual design or product marketing and want to deepen their skills in AI-native, production-grade B2B SaaS products.

Exceptional performance during the internship may lead to:

• A full-time role at NexScale, or
• An extension of the internship for 8 months or longer, depending on mutual fit, funding structure, and team needs.

Who This Role Is For

This role is a strong fit if you:

• Have prior hands-on experience in digital marketing, content marketing, social media management, SEO, or product marketing (internships, startups, freelance, or in-house teams)
• Are fluent in Figma and Canva and can move confidently between product visuals, brand design, and marketing assets
• Are fluent in using AI solutions in your day-to-day work (writing, design, research, automation) — we are AI-native and expect every team member to operate that way
• Understand how content, channels, and design work together to drive clarity, trust, adoption, and conversion
• Are comfortable owning campaigns end-to-end and working closely with founders and product teams
• Care about building a brand that creates real business and human impact
• Take ownership, communicate clearly, and follow through

You do not need to be senior. You do need to be capable, thoughtful, have a get-things-done attitude, pay strong attention to details, and be accountable.

What You'll Work On

Content Marketing & Social Media

• Plan, write, and ship content (text and visual) across blog, email, and social channels (Instagram, Website, Instagram, WhatsApp Community)
• Own the social media calendar end-to-end—from concept and copy to publishing and performance
• Build content series, playbooks, and case studies aimed at wellness and fitness operators
• Engage with our community and operator audiences in a voice that feels human, not corporate

Digital Marketing & SEO

• Run on-page and technical SEO basics: keyword research, content briefs, internal linking, metadata
• Support paid and organic acquisition experiments across channels
• Track campaign performance, surface insights, and recommend the next test
• Help build and maintain landing pages and email flows that convert

Product Marketing & Brand Design

• Design and ship product marketing assets, including:
  • Landing pages and feature pages
  • Product visuals, diagrams, and screenshots
  • Pitch decks, one-pagers, and pilot enablement materials
  • Social, ad, and email creative
• Support product launches and pilot rollouts with fast, high-quality design execution
• Ensure consistency across product, brand, and marketing touchpoints in Figma and Canva

Design Practice

• Present and explain creative and content decisions clearly
• Iterate quickly based on feedback, data, and real operator needs
• Balance speed with quality in a fast-moving, early-stage environment

What Success Looks Like

By the end of the internship, a strong intern will have:

• Shipped multiple high-quality content, social, and SEO campaigns that drove measurable results
• Delivered a library of product marketing assets used in live pilots and GTM motions
• Strengthened NexScale's brand presence and voice across owned channels
• Built trust with the product and leadership team through ownership and reliability
• Shown readiness for expanded scope through full-time hiring or extended internship

Required Qualifications

• Prior experience in digital marketing, content marketing, social media, SEO, or product marketing
• Strong fluency in Figma and Canva (non-negotiable)
• Ability to present a strong portfolio of content, campaigns, and visual work (required — applications without a portfolio or work samples will not be reviewed)
• Clear writing and communication skills and a high attention to detail
• A Master's degree from a top Canadian university (e.g., University of Toronto, York University, Toronto Metropolitan University, Schulich, Rotman, McGill, Waterloo, Western, Queen's, UBC) — graduating in the coming months or within the last 12 months
• Based in Toronto
• Eligible for Canadian internship grant programs (legally eligible to work in Canada, a resident of Canada, and graduated no more than 2 years ago from a Canadian university)

Nice to Have

• Experience with Framer (highly valued)
• Experience marketing B2B SaaS or AI-powered products
• Familiarity with early-stage startup environments
• Hands-on experience with SEO tools (Ahrefs, SEMrush, Google Search Console), email platforms (Klaviyo, HubSpot, Mailchimp), and analytics (GA4)
• Short-form video editing skills
• Interest in wellness, fitness, or retention-driven business models

Why NexScale

• Work closely with a 3× experienced founder and a high-bar, interdisciplinary team
• Market and design for applied, production-grade AI products used by real businesses
• Gain hands-on experience shaping both content marketing and go-to-market design
• See your work directly impact real operators, real communities, and real outcomes
• Join a team that values clarity, empathy, ownership, and execution over titles or bureaucracy

Final Note

We view internships as a two-way commitment.

When there is strong mutual fit and sustained impact, we prefer to extend and grow people rather than restart hiring. If you're looking for meaningful ownership, real responsibility, and a clear path forward, this role is designed for you.
