Telemundo Houston is shaping the next generation of digital storytellers. We’re looking for a Multiplatform News Content Creator who is social-first, audience-driven, and fluent in how Gen Z and Millennials discover news.
This is not a traditional producer role, and it’s not a traditional reporter role. It’s a hybrid journalist-creator position: someone who can report and present stories, shoot and edit vertical video, and craft content that travels seamlessly across broadcast, streaming, social, and mobile platforms.
If you thrive in fast-paced environments, love experimenting with new formats, and want to help reinvent the future of local journalism… you belong here.
Join Telemundo Houston and help redefine what Spanish-language news looks like for the next generation.

- Write scripts, headlines, captions, web articles, and app push alerts optimized for younger audiences.
- Think out of the box to produce quick-turn explainers, live updates, field hits, digital segments, and social-first stories.
- Collaborate on and off camera to produce livestreams with vMix in breaking news, severe weather coverage, and special events.

- Identify trends, audience conversations, and local stories that resonate with Gen Z and Millennials.
- Use analytics and insights to inform creative decisions and help grow digital communities.
