Job description

Company Overview

Each year, 2.5 trillion hours are spent on household chores. At Matic, we’re on a mission to recapture that lost time, and we’re doing it by revolutionizing home robotics.

Our first product, also called Matic, is a Wall-E-esque floor cleaning robot. We've built what amounts to "full self-driving in the home” with real-time 3D mapping, adaptive path-tracking, and a precise semantic understanding of the home. Our breakthroughs in spatial AI allow Matic to work reliably in real homes, using only RGB cameras and neural networks running on-device.

Privacy First

What happens in the home, stays in the home. Our robots are private by design, with all data processing performed by the robot itself, not in the cloud.

Our Approach

Before the iPhone, consumers adopted several distinct devices; cell phones, PDAs, and portable music players each served a particular need. We believe in a similar progression for home robotics, starting with single-purpose robots and building iteratively toward more complex capabilities over time.

Our Culture

Matic is a tight-knit and collaborative team, singularly focused on building products our customers will cherish. We're ultra-hardworking people committed to solving tough problems that save precious time and energy.

About the role

At Matic, we’re building home robots that give people time and energy back. People spend an average of 10+ hours each week on household chores, and we’re here to change that. We build and ship products that solve real problems for real people, with a team that values curiosity, learning, and ownership.

We’re looking for a Content Creator to bring Matic’s story to life through compelling video and photography, with room to shape our creative voice and make an immediate impact.

What You Will Do

• Shoot and edit social-first video for Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, paid social, and other digital channels.
• Turn creative briefs, references, rough ideas, and existing footage into polished finished content.
• Capture clean, professional product, lifestyle, and behind-the-scenes photography.
• Own projects from capture through final edit, including lighting, audio, color, sound design, motion graphics, and typography.
• Create multiple variations and iterations for paid media testing and rapid learning.
• Use After Effects to add thoughtful motion, typography, graphics, and visual treatments.
• Spot ideas in existing footage or cultural moments and bring them to life quickly—without waiting for approvals.
• Contribute creative ideas. We want a partner who brings references, pitches angles, and makes the work better.

What You Bring

• Strong editing fundamentals: excellent short-form, vertical video editing with strong pacing and visual storytelling.
• 2+ years of hands-on experience creating and editing video content (school projects, personal work, freelance gigs, internships—we don’t care where it comes from, your portfolio does the talking).
• Proficiency with Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects (demonstrated fluency across multiple projects).
• Motion graphics experience: demonstrated ability to animate type, create graphics, and compose visual treatments in After Effects.
• Shooting and composition skills: clean product, lifestyle, and BTS photography with strong framing.
• Comfort working with and directing talent: ability to conduct interviews, guide people on camera, and capture authentic talking heads and performance-based content.
• Sound design and color correction fundamentals.
• Familiarity with AI video production workflows: comfortable experimenting with AI tools for asset creation, editing assistance, and visual storytelling.
• A portfolio is required: submit a portfolio featuring social-first video and photography, with a brief description of your contribution to each project.
• Fast execution: ability to move from idea to finished piece without sacrificing taste.
• Collaborative mindset: you can take feedback, iterate, and create without needing constant direction.

Nice to Have

• Studio or product photography experience.
• Lighting fundamentals beyond basic setups.
• Understanding of performance creative and paid social metrics.
• Familiarity with Figma.
• YouTube editing or longer-form storytelling experience.
• Interest in consumer tech, hardware, or product-driven companies.

Compensation

Base $96,000 — $120,000

Actual Compensation will depend on skills, experience and qualifications. Base Salary is one part of the total compensation package. The role is also eligible for equity through the company’s discretionary equity program, along with a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental and vision coverage access to a 401(k) plan.
