Senior Video Producer

Role overview

The RoleAs Senior Video Producer at Hedra, you'll own our video engine end to end. Source, contract, and manage the freelance bench of video editors, motion graphics designers, and on-camera talent. Today our API serves both first- and third-party models to production customers, and our agent works within a single workflow to create content from scratch, manipulate existing assets, critique its own outputs, and repurpose them on demand. He is co-first author on BEHAVIOR, a landmark embodied-AI benchmark, and has published at top conferences including CoRL, ICRA, and ICML (with a CoRL 2022 Best Paper nomination), with prior experience on NVIDIA robotics and simulation.

What you'll do

• Work closely with product, engineering, and marketing to build deep knowledge of the product, our users, and what those users are trying to build.
• Own the video content calendar, aligned to the marketing launch calendar and blog and email themes.
• Produce long-form YouTube content targeting developer, prosumer, and enterprise search intent: tutorials, feature deep-dives, and product narratives.
• Source, contract, and manage the freelance bench of video editors, motion graphics designers, and on-camera talent. Keep at least two vetted options per function so no single contractor is a point of failure.
• Write the scripts yourself, or brief them out when volume demands it, working with marketing on messaging as needed.
• Turn every long-form piece into short cuts for X, LinkedIn, TikTok, and paid media. You'll cut most of these yourself and hand overflow to the bench.
• Manage any agency relationships under clear guardrails: briefs, SOWs, continuous asset delivery, and weekly reporting.
• Own YouTube channel operations, including thumbnails, titles, metadata, and search optimization, and report weekly on output and conversion-relevant metrics.
• Keep all raw footage, project files, and account credentials organized in company-owned systems.

What the employer is looking for

• 4+ years producing video for a tech or SaaS brand, including at least one YouTube channel you grew and can show the numbers for.
• A track record hiring and managing freelance editors and motion designers, not only working inside a large in-house team.
• You can script, and you can shoot scrappy solo content when the moment calls for it. This is not a project management role.
• You understand YouTube as a search and conversion channel, not only a brand channel.
• Enough technical fluency to make developer-facing content credible: you can follow a product demo and you know what an API is.
• Hands-on. You'd rather cut the video yourself than wait a week for a contractor to get to it.
• Self-motivated and independent: able to set ambitious (and yet accurate!) timelines and deliver on them.
• Low ego, high patience, proactive communication. Strong opinions, weakly held.
• Curious about generative AI and world models, and interested enough to use the product yourself.
• And most importantly, treat Hedra as your own and help shape the vision with us.
