Basis builds production-grade AI agents that perform end-to-end work for major accounting firms. The company recently raised $100M at >$1B valuation and is backed by top-tier investors including Khosla Ventures, Accel, Google Ventures, and technical leaders like Jeff Dean and Nat Friedman.
You will own video production end-to-end for Basis, defining the function from the ground up. This includes managing an in-office studio and podcast production, shooting customer testimonials on location, capturing conference and event content, creating recruiting and brand films, and producing product and launch videos that support campaigns. You'll also handle platform-native content cuts derived from all productions.
Responsibilities span the full production lifecycle: scoping shoots, building shot lists, operating cameras, pre-production planning, timeline editing, and quality control. You'll manage agency and freelance relationships directly—from scoping and budgeting through on-set direction and final approval. You'll serve as the lead editor, cutting some projects yourself and directing external editors on others. As the function scales, you'll build repeatable playbooks: identifying high-ROI formats, optimizing studio workflow, selecting partners for different work types, and creating pipelines that turn single production days into sustained content output.
You should be comfortable with the full range of video production: pre-production problem-solving, on-set camera/lighting/audio work (including multi-camera interviews), directing non-professional talent, editorial judgment, and partner management. You'll embrace AI tools for scripting, transcript-driven assembly, and generative assets to accelerate the function.
Success metrics include: delivering customer testimonial videos on demand for conferences and launches, running a reliable podcast with production quality as a draw, directing agencies to produce stronger work through tight pre-production, compounding output (hero piece + platform cuts from each shoot), documenting playbooks for 10x scaling, and establishing Basis as synonymous with AI in accounting through shareable, high-quality video.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 4–7 years producing and editing video, ideally on an in-house brand/creative team or at a production company serving brand clients
- Command of Premiere or DaVinci Resolve; sufficient After Effects or equivalent for light motion work
- Portfolio/reel demonstrating both shooting and editing
- In-person 5 days/week at Flatiron office (with travel for shoots)
PREFERRED:
- Studio and podcast production experience (building and running a show on schedule)
- Customer storytelling via testimonial or case study video, especially on-location shoots
- Event capture and content slate production
- Motion design and animation skills
- B2B video for business audiences
