Video Growth Architect

Kajabi • Newport Beach, CA

5d • $85,000 - $125,000 • Onsite

About The Position

Kajabi is building a studio-level content engine designed for a single purpose: create video that moves markets. The Video Growth Architect is the apex predator of this system — the hybrid creator–strategist–performance killer who turns cameras, AI, and storytelling into raw commercial impact. This is not a videographer. This is not an editor. This is not a “creative.” This is the person who makes content that prints trials, revenue, and cultural gravity. You crush short-form, long-form, podcasts, scripted concepts, UGC, founders’ content, ads, and narrative storylines — and you do it with ruthless speed. You wield AI the way a Navy pilot wields avionics: as an unfair advantage, not a crutch. You measure output in impact, not aesthetics. You think in hooks, not formats. You move in iterations, not drafts. If your default mode is “shoot it, cut it, ship it, measure it, beat it,” this is your role. You will architect, produce, edit, and optimize video across every major surface Kajabi touches — paid, organic, podcast, YouTube, landing pages, product storytelling, brand films, and more. You’ll collaborate directly with the co-CEOs and core marketing pods to transform ideas into high-performance video assets faster than most teams can write briefs. This is a builder role. A maker role. A force multiplier role. You own the full stack of modern video performance from concept → script → shoot → edit → publish → analyze → scale. You create content with the emotional punch of Hollywood and the conversion power of direct response.
