About the Role
At LoudLabs, we run the digital video operations for India’s leading digital news channel.
This role exists for one reason: to make sure strong editorial ideas turn into published videos fast, clean, and at scale.
The Video Production Lead is the operational backbone of the newsroom.
If production breaks, everything breaks.
This Role Is For You If
- You hate chaos more than pressure
- You instinctively think in workflows, not tasks
- You believe speed comes from systems, not shouting
- You can spot bottlenecks before they become excuses
- You are calm when everything is urgent
What You’ll Actually Do
- Own end-to-end digital video production for news content
- Build and enforce daily production workflows
- Coordinate anchors, editors, writers, graphics, and social teams
- Ensure videos move smoothly from idea to publish
- Fix breakdowns before they slow output
- Balance speed, accuracy, and quality under tight deadlines
- Set production standards that scale
You are not here to chase people.
You are here to build systems that make chasing unnecessary.
What “Good” Looks Like Here
- Videos go out on time without last‑minute panic
- Editors are cutting, not waiting
- Anchors know when and how they’re needed
- Production bottlenecks are predictable and solved early
- Output stays high even on heavy news days
If the newsroom feels calm during chaos, you’re doing it right.
Who Should Not Apply
- People who confuse busyness with productivity
- Production managers who only react instead of planning
- Anyone uncomfortable taking ownership when things go wrong
This role has nowhere to hide.
Skills and Experience Reality
- Experience managing high-output digital video production
- Strong understanding of news workflows
- Clear grasp of YouTube and short‑form production pipelines
- Ability to work with multiple teams without friction
Technical skills help. Operational judgment matters more.
What You’ll Get at LoudLabs
- Ownership of one of India’s largest digital news video operations
- Real authority to build systems, not just follow them
- Exposure to how large‑scale digital news actually runs
- Growth based on execution, not tenure
- A team that values clarity and accountability
Final Truth

If you enjoy making complex systems run smoothly under pressure, you will thrive here.
