Job Description
Why This Role Matters
We’re looking for a next-generation video creator who sits at the intersection of AI-driven filmmaking and modern videography. This isn’t a traditional video editor role—we need someone who embraces AI video tools as core production techniques, and can craft sleek, polished video content that cuts through the noise.
This role is a cornerstone of our marketing team—your work directly drives lead generation and product interest. You’ll be the visual voice of our brand, creating content that educates our audience, amplifies our campaigns, and showcases what we do through compelling motion graphics and cutting-edge video.
You'll collaborate closely with marketing, content, and our social media specialist to ensure consistent messaging and creative excellence. You will be responsible for profiling AI agents in our marketplace, producing weekly webinar series, creating engaging short-form advertising and explainer videos, and capturing live footage at trade shows and educational workshops. The video style should be polished, educational, and visually dynamic, inspired by the Learn with Shopify YouTube channel.

Why This Role Must Be Wellington-Based (In-Office)
This is not a remote role. Here’s why being in our Wellington office is essential:
Filming real people: You’ll regularly film our CEO, team members, clients, and guests for case studies, testimonials, podcasts, and webinar content
Event coverage: You’ll capture footage at trade shows, workshops, and company events that we attend throughout the region
Collaboration: You’ll work hands-on with our tight-knit marketing team, requiring daily coordination and creative collaboration
Equipment and production: You’ll manage our audio-visual setup and production equipment on-site
Agility: Marketing moves fast—we need you present to capture spontaneous content opportunities and respond to real-time campaign needs
If you cannot commit to working from our central Wellington office Monday-Friday, please do not apply.
What Makes This Role Different
This position combines AI-powered content creation with traditional videography.
We’ve found that most applicants fall into one of two categories that don’t fit what we need:
Animation designers without a videography or filmmaking background
Skilled creatives who do everything manually and aren’t leveraging AI tools
We need both: someone who understands cinematography and video production, and actively uses AI filmmaking and content creation tools to produce viral-worthy content faster and more creatively than traditional methods allow.
Requirements
Proficiency with Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, and/or equivalent video software
Proven experience using AI video generation and filmmaking tools (Higgsfield AI, Kling, Runway, Pika, or similar platforms)
Experience with AI content creation tools, including image generation (Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion), voice synthesis (ElevenLabs), and creative planning tools
Demonstrated ability to create viral-style content and understand social media content trends
Experience planning, scripting, and producing short-form content optimized for engagement
Videography skills, including camera operation, composition, and lighting fundamentals
Excellent visual storytelling and creative design abilities
Strong organizational and project management skills with the ability to juggle multiple projects
Must be based in Wellington or willing to relocate—this role requires daily in-office presence.
Benefits
Work at the cutting edge of AI-powered filmmaking, content creation, and marketing.
Have your work seen on the world stage.
Work with a small, tight-knit group of creatives without endless red tape.
Help develop our young brand in the video and AI space with creative freedom.
Strong career growth opportunities in an emerging field
Be a key driver of our marketing success and company growth.
