Job summary

Hedra is hiring a Senior Video Producer to own our video engine end to end, building YouTube-first tutorials, feature deep-dives, and product narratives for developers, prosumers, and enterprise audiences.

You'll shoot, cut, script, and oversee a freelance bench, coordinating with marketing and product teams. You will also own thumbnails, titles, and metadata while tracking weekly performance.

Qualifications

• 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.
• You understand YouTube as a search and conversion channel, not only a brand channel.
• Enough technical fluency to make developer-facing content credible: you can follow a product demo and you know what an API is.

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.
• Produce long-form YouTube content targeting developer, prosumer, and enterprise search intent: tutorials, feature deep-dives, and product narratives.
• Source, contract, and manage the freelance bench of video editors, motion graphics designers, and on-camera talent.
• Write the scripts yourself, or brief them out when volume demands it, working with marketing on messaging as needed.
• Turn every long-form piece into short cuts for X, LinkedIn, TikTok, and paid media.
• You'll cut most of these yourself and hand overflow to the bench.
• 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.
• Keep all raw footage, project files, and account credentials organized in company-owned systems.
