Description

In this role, you will introduce your peers to Chameleon Coffee’s Ready-to-Drink Flash Brew cans and help make them the coffee beverage students reach for during study breaks, campus events, and everyday hangouts.

Your main tasks are to: (1) Distribute Chameleon Coffee Ready-to-Drink Flash Brew can samples through fun events — tabling events in populated areas on your campus and product drops within various student organizations ; (2) Create and share engaging social media content on your personal Instagram and TikTok accounts.

Note: We're selecting multiple Brand Ambassadors at each university. If you know friends who would be interested, share this job and encourage them to apply — you might get to work together!


Timeline: This opportunity runs through the Fall 2026 semester/quarter.


About Chameleon Coffee:

Chameleon Cold Brew Coffee, the original organic cold brew, got its start in Austin, Texas, when their founders set out to make the best-tasting cold-brew around, back when cold-brew wasn't even really a thing. After months of experimenting with brewing time, temperature, and technique, they landed on their signature process using select, air-roasted, certified organic Arabica beans. 

The name "Chameleon" reflects their belief that coffee should shift with your mood, not be locked into one rigid way of drinking it, and to this day the brand refuses to compromise on ingredients, sustainability, or brewing craft in favor of gimmicks or big ad budgets. Their mission is simple: make coffee they'd actually want to drink themselves, brewed thoughtfully and sourced responsibly from the ground up.

Follow Chameleon Coffee on TikTok and Instagram, and learn more about the brand on its website!

About Our Ready-to-Drink Flash Brew Cans:

Our ready-to-drink flash brew cans bring that same craft cold-brew into a grab-and-go format made for real life. Each can provides 200 mg of L-theanine to help smooth out the caffeine's edge so you get steady energy without the jitters or crash. Three of our flavors, Latte Classic, Latte Double Shot, and Flat White Classic, are made with A2 milk, which is known for its easy digestion, while our Nitro Cold Brew brings a smooth and bold dairy free option. On top of that, we keep the flavors clean and fun, with nothing artificial weighing things down, so you get a can that tastes great and feels great too, whether you're grabbing it on your way out the door or cracking one open mid-afternoon.
