About the role
- The Education team is based in New York and operates at the intersection of product, DevRel, and Marketing.
- This is a first-of-its-kind role at Viam -- you'll be the only dedicated video production professional on the team, working closely with our VP of Education and collaborators across Education, DevRel, Marketing, and Engineering.
- End-to-end production for Viam's educational and marketing video content; from pre-production planning through final delivery, including tutorials, product demos, webinars, and event coverage.
Responsibilities
- No inherited toolchain, no prior workflow to maintain.
- Collaborate Openly
- Lead with Curiosity
Requirements
- A strong portfolio is required.
- Audio engineering experience
- you can capture and mix clean audio in environments you didn't control in advance.
- Proficiency in Final Cut Pro or comparable NLE software.
- If you work in a different toolchain, you can make the case for why it's the right call.
- Comfort working as the only production person in the room.
- Experience giving creative direction to other producers, editors, or freelancers, even informally.
- A storyteller's instinct alongside your production skills
- you think about why a viewer keeps watching, not just whether the footage is clean.
- Demonstrated experience producing and editing long-form technical or educational video content -- courses, tutorials, product demos, or webinars. A strong portfolio is required.
- Professional camera operation skills, comfortable with a range of camera systems and lighting setups in both studio and field conditions.
- Professional still photography capabilities, including corporate headshots, event coverage, and web-ready imagery.
- Proficiency in Final Cut Pro or comparable NLE software. If you work in a different toolchain, you can make the case for why it's the right call.
- Comfort working as the only production person in the room. You've built or rebuilt a production function before, or you're ready to, and you don't need a playbook handed to you.
- Nice to have: experience producing content specifically for a developer or technical audience (education platforms, DevRel programs, technical documentation video).
- Bonus for light animation and video graphics skills.
