• Capture and edit short-form vertical video optimized for social platforms.
• Deliver quick-turn edits (often within 24–72 hours).
• Develop strong hooks, pacing, captions, and storytelling structures designed for retention.
• Repurpose long-form footage into multiple short-form assets.
• Collaborate with social, community, and growth teams to align content with campaign goals.

• Support production of brand videos, product explainers, interviews, and launch content.
• Capture high-quality b-roll for evergreen marketing use.
• Assist with documentary-style user stories and thought leadership content.

• Capture lifestyle and product photography for web, social, and campaign use.
• Support asset organization and visual library management.

• Travel approximately once per month for events, community activations, user story shoots, and key campaign moments.
• Support live demos and in-person content capture.

• Work closely with marketing and community teams to execute on creative briefs.
• Contribute ideas that align storytelling with brand values and product usage goals.

• 1 - 3+ years of experience in videography and editing, ideally in a consumer brand or social-first environment.
• Strong portfolio showcasing short-form, vertical, social-native content.
• Proficiency in video editing software such as Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, or similar tools.
• Experience shooting with professional camera equipment and lighting setups.
• Strong understanding of social platform dynamics, trends, and content performance.
• Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced environment.

• Experience in consumer tech, gaming, family, or lifestyle brands.
• Motion graphics experience.
• Experience capturing live events.
• Familiarity with photography editing tools such as Lightroom or Photoshop.
• Experience collaborating and coaching executives or thought leaders on video content.

• Deep instinct for storytelling and emotional resonance.
• Ability to balance speed with quality.
• Strong creative judgment and platform-native thinking.
• Comfortable working in a hybrid startup environment.
• Highly organized with strong asset management habits.
• Excited about building a new category around active, family-first play.
