Video Production Manager
About The Position
Viam is seeking a Video Production Manager to build its educational and marketing video content capabilities from scratch. This role will be responsible for end-to-end video production, including tutorials, product demos, webinars, and event coverage. The ideal candidate will have demonstrated experience producing and editing long-form technical or educational video content, professional camera and audio operation skills, and proficiency in Final Cut Pro or comparable software. This is a first-of-its-kind role at Viam, offering the opportunity to establish the production workflow and toolchain.
Requirements
- Demonstrated experience producing and editing long-form technical or educational video content -- courses, tutorials, product demos, or webinars. A strong portfolio is required.
- Professional camera operation skills, comfortable with a range of camera systems and lighting setups in both studio and field conditions.
- Professional still photography capabilities, including corporate headshots, event coverage, and web-ready imagery.
- Audio engineering experience; you can capture and mix clean audio in environments you didn’t control in advance.
- Proficiency in Final Cut Pro or comparable NLE software. If you work in a different toolchain, you can make the case for why it’s the right call.
- Comfort working as the only production person in the room. You’ve built or rebuilt a production function before, or you’re ready to, and you don’t need a playbook handed to you.
Nice To Haves
- Experience producing content specifically for a developer or technical audience (education platforms, DevRel programs, technical documentation video).
Responsibilities
- End-to-end production for Viam’s educational and marketing video content; from pre-production planning through final delivery, including tutorials, product demos, webinars, and event coverage.
- Camera operation and lighting setup for both studio and on-location shoots, capturing clean, professional footage across a range of formats.
- Audio capture and post-production; recording setups and mixing that hold up whether you’re in a controlled studio or on a conference floor.
- Still photography for web, media, and corporate use; headshots, office life, product photography, and event coverage.
- Long-form post-production editing in Final Cut Pro or equivalent, with an eye for pacing and clarity that serves a technical audience.
- Toolchain and equipment decisions; evaluating what Viam needs, recommending the gear and software stack, and owning the production workflow from day one.
