Social Video Producer

Epoch AI is looking for a founding Social Video Producer who will help us launch short-form video for our new media program. The role will involve producing and editing videos about AI for TikTok and Instagram, and shaping how we show up on those platforms. 

We are looking for a Social Video Producer to help us bring Epoch AI's research to a much broader audience. You will work closely with our media program lead to build our short-form video presence from scratch, aiming for roughly one video per week to start.

Your day-to-day activities will include producing and editing short-form videos, developing repeatable formats, and advising on our social strategy (what to post, when, and how to grow engagement). An ideal candidate is a strong video producer first; deep AI knowledge is not required, since the point of this program is to reach people who don't follow AI closely. Your work will be key to making rigorous AI research accessible to a general audience. 

This is an in-person role based in the San Francisco Bay Area. The media team will work together in person for at least the first six months of the program. 

We invite anyone who is interested to apply, regardless of background, experience, or credentials. Please do not include a cover letter, photograph, or headshot of yourself, or any personal information that is not relevant to the role for which you're applying (including marital status, age, identity traits, etc.). Applications are rolling. 

This role is based in person in the San Francisco Bay Area, and team members will work together on-site for at least the first six months of the media program. We are not able to consider remote applicants for this role.

Please submit all of your application materials in English and note that we require professional level English proficiency.

Epoch is committed to building an inclusive, equitable, and supportive community for you to thrive and do your best work. We’re committed to finding the best people for our team, so please don’t hesitate to apply for a role regardless of your age, gender identity/expression, political identity, personal preferences, physical abilities, veteran status, neurodiversity or any other background. Please email [email protected] if you have any questions about this role, accessibility requests, or if you want to request an extension to the application deadline. However, we will not review applications submitted to this email address; please submit your application through the link on this page.
