A fast-scaling, early-stage AI startup building a video creation and editing platform for marketers, small business owners, and creators. The company is building its organic content and social presence from near zero and is looking for a Head of Content to own that effort end to end.
Responsibilities:
Own organic content strategy across long-form YouTube and short-form platforms (Shorts, TikTok, Instagram, X), with views at scale as the main goal.
Run systematic, high-volume short-form output using AI tools, including the company's own platform.
Present on camera: YouTube videos, product demos, and use-case walkthroughs for marketers, small business owners, and creators.
Handle scripting, filming, and editing end to end, with some support from a video editor.
Work with the paid ads lead so organic content can feed paid campaigns.
Manage a small UGC and creator partnership budget.
Build the content machine from scratch, grow a personal brand as the face of the company, with a path to hire and lead a content team.
Ideal backgrounds include experience at AI video and creator-tool startups, or independent creators and freelancers who built their own channels. Remote in the US, with Los Angeles preferred.

- End-to-end video production skills (scripting, filming, editing)

- Creative freedom to build content from scratch
- Support from a video editor and paid ads lead
