Job summary

Higher Ground Labs in San Francisco is seeking a content producer to build Clipbook's video and podcast program from scratch. You will own strategy, booking, shooting, editing and publishing, shaping how the show looks and sounds across formats.

You'll work with communications teams at public affairs, government, and advocacy groups, traveling to shoots and delivering cohesive, on-brand clips and episodes.

Qualifications

• Taste. This is valued more than years of experience or your education.
• Production skills - comfortable owning a two- or three-camera setup, lighting a room you've never been in, and troubleshooting audio without a second set of hands.
• Experience with Premiere, Final Cut, or DaVinci, plus working comfort with motion graphics and sound design.
• A strong eye for what performs on social, and the judgment to cut for attention without cutting for cheapness.
• Resourcefulness with a budget: you know when to rent, when to hire local crew, and when to just get it done.
• Highly motivated and results-oriented with intense responsiveness, coachability, and a strong drive to succeed.
• Adaptability and willingness to thrive in a nimble, execution-focused startup.
• Interest in media, communications, or business storytelling is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Podcast strategy: Decide what we make and why; own formats, calendar and publishing schedule.
• Video production: Run the podcast and our video from pre-production through post, manage on-site lighting and audio, and assemble a complete package.
• Distribution: Edit long-form episodes for LinkedIn, YouTube and X; coordinate calendar with GTM and publishing cadence.
• Travel to shoots in the US.
• Other duties as assigned.
