Build with us.

About the role

Show people what we’re building. You’ll follow a robot test from setup to result and make it worth watching, without overselling it.

Three-month contract. Shoots in San Francisco, editing from anywhere. The founders check the technical claims and publish.

Pay

$1,500–$2,000 USD a month, three months to start. We agree the scope and revisions up front.

Responsibilities

• Plan and shoot one half-day a month around a test or a build.
• Deliver two short edited videos a month, from your footage and clips the team records.
• Captions, social cuts, a few stills and four short posts.
• Show the difference between a lucky try and a result that holds up.
• Keep footage and project files organized so we can reuse them.

Experience

• A portfolio of your own shooting and editing.
• You can light, record sound, film and edit a small shoot on your own.
• Clear writing, and you ask when you don’t understand the engineering.
• Free for shoots in San Francisco, and fine working around half-built machines.

Useful experience

• Experience filming in a factory, lab or machine shop.
• Photography or motion graphics for robotics and hardware.
• Video work for LinkedIn, X, YouTube or Instagram.

First project

One short film of one test: the problem, how we check the part, and what the result means. It sets the format for the next month.
