Videographer, Video Editor & Podcast Producer

Videos

Capture what's already happening. Be on the shop floor daily. Our best content isn't manufactured, it's captured — students striking their first arc, passing their first certification test, graduating and heading to the field.

Responsibilities

• Follow students across their entire journey. We're building long-form story content that follows the same student from their first phone call through all four phases to their first job.
• Shoot and edit at volume. Run efficient batch production days that generate dozens of usable assets, not one polished video that takes three weeks.
• Run our podcast end to end. Book and prep guests, run the room, record, edit, and slice every episode into short-form clips that live across every platform.
• Build the brand. Welding is a small world and reputation travels. Help make Western Welding Academy a name that instructors, employers and prospective students already know before they ever talk to us.
• Own the quality bar. Brand standards, captions, pacing, hooks. If it goes out, it's right.
• Work off data, not guesswork. You'll see what's performing and adjust. We measure content on whether it brings in the right students — not on view counts.

Qualifications

• Shoot and you edit, at a professional standard. Both, not one.
• A reel or portfolio. This matters to us far more than your resume.
• Comfortable running your own shoots — lighting, audio, framing — without a crew.
• Fast. We care more about how much good work you deliver than how perfect any single piece is.
• Willing to work on an active shop floor. Heat, sparks, noise, steel-toe boots. This is not a desk job.
• Excellent communication and organizational skills, and the judgment to work unsupervised.
• Strong desire to be part of a team building a better generation.

Benefits

• Free medical option. Our Cigna HDHP plan is 100% company-paid for you and your family — $0 premium out of your paycheck. It's a high-deductible plan ($4,000 individual / $8,000 family) paired with an HSA.
• Money toward your health costs. Choose the HDHP and we add $1,000 a year to your Health Savings Account.
• Company-paid life insurance. $75,000 in coverage at no cost to you.
• 401(k) with a match. We match up to 3.5% of your pay to help you build for the future.
• Dental and vision coverage through Principal at a low monthly cost.
• Unlimited PTO from your very first day. No accrual, no waiting period — just plan ahead with your manager.
• Gear that doesn't fight you. A real equipment and software budget, and modern AI-assisted editing tools so you spend your time creating instead of scrubbing.
• A mission that matters. Your work helps put people into life-changing careers and helps rebuild America's skilled workforce, one welder at a time.
