Job description

Paired is a global staffing and recruiting agency that pairs remote work with top-tier talent. We help individuals from around the world connect with great companies that are looking for their specific skill set. Our mission is to provide great jobs to talented people, no matter where they are located.

We’re looking for a YouTube Scriptwriter / Technical Content Writer who is passionate about AI, enjoys learning new tools, and can turn technical topics into clear, engaging YouTube content. This is a hands‑on role : you’ll own both the scriptwriting and the screen‑recording process for each video. You’ll research and actually use the AI tools you’re covering, write the script based on your experience, and record the footage needed to bring the content to life. You don’t need to know every AI tool from day one. What matters most is that you’re curious, willing to learn, comfortable experimenting with new technology, and able to work independently.

Key Responsibilities
  • Research AI tools, platforms, and workflows and turn them into engaging YouTube scripts
  • Use and test the tools yourself before writing about them to ensure accuracy
  • Write clear, structured scripts that make technical AI topics easy to understand
  • Create content around AI tools, AI agents, vibecoding, Claude, Claude Code, and related technologies
  • Use internal tools and workflows to draft, refine, and improve scripts
  • Record clean screen recordings and B‑roll that correspond to each section of the script
  • Organize recorded footage clearly so editors can easily understand and use the material
  • Communicate with video editors and respond promptly to questions or requests
  • Produce approximately 4–5 videos per week
  • Stay up to date with new AI tools, features, and trends
Requirements
  • Strong interest in AI and emerging technology
  • Excellent writing and research skills
  • Hands‑on experience with AI tools such as Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, or similar
  • Ability to create clear and organized screen recordings/B-roll
  • Background as a Technical Writer or Content Writer
