We're looking for a Video Lead who can redefine how a modern technology company creates video.

• Experience creating high-quality content with lean budgets and small teams.
• Ability to translate technical topics into engaging video.
• Excellent project management and collaboration skills.

Responsibilities

• Lead our video strategy and oversee end-to-end production.
• Manage an internal team of a video editor and motion graphics animator, with external vendors for scale as needed.
• Produce scalable video content ranging from polished launches to fast-turn social (LinkedIn, X, YouTube) and remote recordings.
• Serve as producer, creative lead, and hands-on editor when needed.
• Develop repeatable production workflows that improve speed, quality, and efficiency.
• Review and provide feedback on all videos to ensure they meet Elastic’s standards for quality, accuracy, and brand consistency.
• Partner with stakeholders to tell compelling stories that simplify complex technology.
