Lead Video Content Creator (Summer Contract)

Creative Strategy

You will define and shape Arya’s visual tone, storytelling approach, and content pillars from scratch.

Rapid Prototyping

• Ideate, shoot, edit, and publish short-form video concepts, treating social platforms as a lab to test what resonates.

End-to-End Production

• Independently film and edit product explainers, founder-led content, and social-first brand videos.

Narrative Translation

• Break down complex product features or B2B customer pain points into simple, engaging, and human-centric stories.

Format Experimentation

• Build content calendars and rigorously test different editing styles, hooks, visual compositions, and distribution strategies.

Asset Repurposing

• Maximize value from long-form content by transforming demos or founder interviews into high-impact, bite-sized social clips.

The Ideal Profile

• A Creative Technologist or Digital Storyteller who thrives in ambiguity and moves quickly.
• A current student or recent graduate of an interdisciplinary creative program (like NYU ITP) with a strong portfolio of self-directed digital media projects.
• Operate with an "owner" mentality: you don’t wait for direction—you pitch ideas, shoot, edit, and deliver.
• A deep, intuitive grasp of platform-native pacing and storytelling for TikTok, Reels, Shorts, and LinkedIn.
• A sharp eye for visual composition, sound design, typography, and editing rhythm.
• Can quickly learn about a B2B SaaS product and make it visually compelling and relatable.
• Excited by the pace and messiness of a startup environment and want the chance to build a brand presence from the ground up.

What’s In It For You?

• A blank canvas: unmatched autonomy to experiment and define the creative direction for an emerging tech company.
• Direct access: collaborate closely with startup founders, gaining deep insights into early-stage company building and go-to-market strategy.
• Portfolio building: produce a high volume of real-world work that showcases your ability to shape a brand identity.
• Career growth: this summer contract is a proving ground, with the clear possibility of transitioning to a full-time lead creative or marketing role.

Logistics & Application

• This is a summer contract role. We're open to structuring it around your availability (part-time or full-time).
• Working in-office (NYC) is highly preferred to enable hands-on filming, rapid prototyping, and close collaboration with the founding team.
• Compensation: competitive contract rate, commensurate with your experience and the scope of the summer engagement.
