Write scripts for technical YouTube videos, AI tools, automation demos, in-depth product tests.
Run your own tests and experiments when a script requires hands-on validation (e.g. "I tested 12 AI writing tools — here's what actually works").
Write and record voiceover for higher-lift technical videos that require explaining APIs, workflows, or emerging AI concepts.
Stay on top of the AI and marketing tool landscape, what's launching, what's overhyped, what our audience needs to know.
Pitch video ideas to the team based on market trends, audience questions, and gaps in our coverage.
Collaborate with video editors and producers to refine scripts based on visual storytelling needs.
Use AI assistants and tools to speed up research, build small demos, or clarify technical details.

You can explain technical concepts (APIs, automation, AI models) clearly without being an engineer yourself.
You've written for video before, you understand pacing, hooks, and how a script needs to serve the edit.
You're a self-starter who doesn't wait for assignments, you notice what's happening in the market and come to the team with ideas.
You're comfortable running your own tests and demos to validate what you're writing about (e.g. signing up for tools, running workflows, documenting results).
You have a good working knowledge of AI tools, how to use them to build small apps, streamline research, or pull together demos.
You can work autonomously and make judgment calls about tone, depth, and structure without constant check-ins.
