Lead Video Content Creator (Summer Contract)

Job description

We Move Fast. So Should You. At Arya Health, we’re building the entire non-clinical operational stack for post-acute care — intelligent automation across recruiting, compliance, intake, scheduling, retention, and more. This is not an internship or assistant role; this is a lead creative position. We are hiring a Lead Video Content Creator to take full ownership of Arya’s short-form video strategy across TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn. You’ll have a high degree of creative autonomy and will work directly with the founders to establish Arya’s brand voice. Rather than following a pre-made playbook, you’ll prototype formats, test narrative hooks, and build the foundation for Arya’s video presence. WHAT YOU’LL OWN As Arya’s one-person production engine, you will drive all aspects of our video content. Your responsibilities include: - Creative Strategy: Define and shape Arya’s visual tone, storytelling approach, and content pillars from scratch. - Rapid Prototyping: Ideate, shoot, edit, and publish short-form video concepts, treating social platforms as a lab to test what resonates. - End-to-End Production: Independently film and edit product explainers, founder-led content, and social-first brand videos. - Narrative Translation: Break down complex product features or B2B customer pain points into simple, engaging, and human-centric stories. - Format Experimentation: Build content calendars and rigorously test different editing styles, hooks, visual compositions, and distribution strategies. - Asset Repurposing: Maximize value from long-form content by transforming demos or founder interviews into high-impact, bite-sized social clips. THE IDEAL PROFILE We’re seeking a creative technologist or digital storyteller who thrives in ambiguity and moves quickly. You’re likely a great fit if you: - Are a current student or recent graduate of an interdisciplinary creative program (like NYU ITP) with a strong portfolio of self-directed digital media projects. - Operate with an "owner" mentality: you don’t wait for direction—you pitch ideas, shoot, edit, and deliver. - Have a deep, intuitive grasp of platform-native pacing and storytelling for TikTok, Reels, Shorts, and LinkedIn. - Possess a sharp eye for visual composition, sound design, typography, and editing rhythm. - Can quickly learn about a B2B SaaS product and make it visually compelling and relatable. - Are excited by the pace and messiness of a startup environment and want the chance to build a brand presence from the ground up. WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU? - A Blank Canvas: Unmatched autonomy to experiment and define the creative direction for an emerging tech company. - Direct Access: Collaborate closely with startup founders, gaining deep insights into early-stage company building and go-to-market strategy. - Portfolio Building: Produce a high volume of real-world work that showcases your ability to shape a brand identity. - Career Growth: This summer contract is a proving ground, with the clear possibility of transitioning to a full-time lead creative or marketing role. LOGISTICS & APPLICATION - Location & Schedule: This is a summer contract role. We’re open to structuring it around your availability (part-time or full-time). Working in-office (NYC) is highly preferred to enable hands-on filming, rapid prototyping, and close collaboration with the founding team. - Compensation: Competitive contract rate, commensurate with your experience and the scope of the summer engagement. How to Apply: Don’t just send a traditional resume—show us what you can do. Please apply through our portal or email join@aryaworks.com with: 1. A link to your portfolio, reel, or samples of your video work (TikTok/IG/YouTube/Personal Site). 2. A brief note (or video) explaining why you want to lead Arya’s brand and how you
