About the role
- YouTube is our highest-converting channel across developers, prosumers, and enterprise, and you'll be the person who makes it run at a sustainable cadence.
- You'll produce the long-form work (tutorials, feature deep-dives, and product narratives) built around what developer, prosumer, and enterprise audiences actually search for.
- Every long-form piece then feeds a cutdown pipeline for X, LinkedIn, TikTok, and paid media.
Responsibilities
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Hedra is a research and infrastructure lab building physical world models and the inference to deploy them at scale.
Requirements
- 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.
- Enough technical fluency to make developer-facing content credible: you can follow a product demo and you know what an API is.
- 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.
- 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.
- Hedra is a research and infrastructure lab building physical world models and the inference to deploy them at scale. Backed by top investors at Index, a16z, and Abstract Ventures, we've built the foundations for full-stack visual intelligence in the next era of AI.
