Social-First Videographer & Editor

About this role

About us At Sierra, we’re creating a platform to help businesses build better, more human customer experiences with AI. We are primarily an in-person company based in San Francisco, with growing offices in Atlanta, New York, London, Paris, Madrid, Munich, Singapore, Tokyo, and Sydney. We are guided by a set of values that are at the core of our actions and define our culture: Trust, Customer Obsession, Craftsmanship, Intensity, and Family. These values are the foundation of our work, and we are committed to upholding them in everything we do. Our co-founders are Bret Taylor and Clay Bavor . Bret currently serves as Board Chair of OpenAI. Previously, he was co-CEO of Salesforce (which had acquired the company he founded, Quip) and CTO of Facebook. Bret was also one of Google's earliest product managers and co-creator of Google Maps. Before founding Sierra, Clay spent 18 years at Google, where he most recently led Google Labs. Earlier, he started and led Google’s AR/VR effort, Project Starline, and Google Lens. Before that, Clay led the product and design teams for Google Workspace. About The Role: We're seeking a highly creative and execution-focused Videographer & Editor to join Sierra's Brand Design team and help tell the stories behind the future of AI-powered customer experiences. This role is responsible for producing fast, high-quality, social-native video content that drives engagement, builds brand affinity, and fuels organic growth. You'll take projects from concept to final delivery, bringing Sierra's products, customers, people, and ideas to life across marketing, social channels, and thought leadership initiatives. You'll partner closely with marketers, brand design team, executives, product teams, customers, and external partners to uncover compelling stories and translate them into content that moves — emotionally, culturally, and quickly. This is a chance to help define Sierra's video practice from the ground up and shape how the world experiences our brand. What you'll do: Capture and edit short-form video optimized for platforms like LinkedIn, X, and YouTube Shorts — including reactive content shot on iPhone or lightweight setups, turning ideas into published content within hours when needed, with quick-turn edits often delivered within 24–72 hours. Partner with Sierra's social and marketing leads to develop and capture recurring content series such as in-person product demos, executive content, customer stories, and brand moments that build audience engagement over time. Develop strong hooks, pacing, captions, and storytelling structures designed for retention, and repurpose long-form footage into multiple short-form assets. Capture lifestyle and event photography for web, social, and campaign use. Create lightweight graphic, meme, and motion-based content in partnership with a motion designer to support social storytelling. What you'll bring: Social Storytelling Expertise : Deep understanding of platform-native content and audience behavior across LinkedIn, X, YouTube, and emerging channels, paired with strong editorial judgment to identify culturally relevant moments, trends, and conversations that can be authentically connected to Sierra's mission and brand. Content Agility: Comfortable moving between fast-turnaround social content, executive thought leadership, customer storytelling, event coverage, and polished brand campaigns — with proficiency in editing tools like Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, or similar, and experience shooting with both professional camera/lighting setups and lightweight/mobile production. Entrepreneurial Mindset: Constantly generating ideas, testing formats, and looking for opportunities to create content that earns attention rather than interrupts it. Multi-Disciplinary Skills: Experience with motion graphics, lightweight design, meme culture, photography, or other complementary creative disciplines is a plus. Execution & Organization: Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced startup environment, with strong asset management habits and a balance of speed and quality. Even better... Three bullets max on nice-to-have qualifications Our values Trust: We build trust with our customers with our accountability, empathy, quality, and responsiveness. We build trust in AI by making it more accessible, safe, and useful. We build trust with each other by showing up for each other professionally and personally, creating an environment that enables all of us to do our best work. Customer Obsession: We deeply understand our customers’ business goals and relentlessly focus on driving outcomes, not just technical milestones. Everyone at the company knows and spends time with our customers. When our customer is having an issue, we drop everything and fix it. Craftsmanship: We get the details right, from the words on the page to the system architecture. We have good taste. When we notice something isn’t right, we take the time to fix it. We are proud of
