Job description

Video Host/Content Creator (Freelance/Contract)

Location: Remote or Portland, OR

About Us:

Digital Trends is one of the world’s most trusted tech publications, delivering honest, entertaining, and informative content to millions of viewers across our website and YouTube channel. From in-depth reviews to helpful how-tos, bold opinions, and hands-on impressions, we cover the tech that shapes our world — and the people who use it.

Our YouTube channel reaches millions of tech enthusiasts, and now, we’re expanding our hosting roster to bring even more voices and expertise to our growing audience.

The Role:

We’re looking for passionate, knowledgeable, and charismatic tech creators to join our lineup of YouTube hosts. Whether you’re an audio gear junkie, a display nerd, a mobile wizard, or just someone who can explain tech in a way that actually makes sense, we want to hear from you.

As a Digital Trends host, you'll collaborate with our editorial and production teams to create engaging, high-quality videos that entertain and inform. This is a freelance/contract role with a flexible commitment. Ideally, we’re looking for one video per week, but we’re open to discussing what works best for you.

What You’ll Do:

Write, shoot, and present video content (reviews, guides, comparisons, commentary, etc.)

Bring your personality and expertise to every piece. We want creators, not robots

Collaborate with our production/editing team to ensure a polished final product

Stay on top of industry trends and be ready to cover the latest news, products, and releases

Occasionally appear in collaborative or panel-style content with other DT hosts

What We’re Looking For:

A strong on-camera presence and the ability to explain complex topics clearly and confidently

A deep passion for consumer tech (e.g., TVs, audio, computing, mobile, gaming, smart home)

Experience creating video content for YouTube or other platforms (editing skills are a plus but not required)

The ability to self-produce content from your home or studio setup

A consistent creative voice and a genuine desire to educate and entertain

What We Offer:

Base compensation per video, with bonus potential based on performance and sponsorships

Access to products and early-release tech from major brands

Dedicated sales team to help secure sponsorships for your content

Strategic support from our editorial and production teams. You create, we’ll handle the rest

Opportunities to keep some of the gear you review

Exposure to a large, engaged audience to help grow your personal brand

How To Apply:

Please submit the following:

A brief letter introducing yourself and why you’re interested

Tech categories or product types you’re most passionate about covering

Links to your YouTube channel or relevant video work (a 3-minute minimum audition video can be submitted if you don’t have an existing channel)

A quick pitch for a video you’d want to make for Digital Trends
