Videographer / Creative Director

About Trybe

Trybe is a fast-growing, performance-based creator marketing platform helping brands scale through high-performing user-generated content (UGC).

We connect brands with creators who produce authentic, engaging content that brands can turn into high-performing paid ads. We're building a new way for brands and creators to grow together, and we're looking for ambitious people to join us.

About the Role

We're hiring a killer videographer that also possesses a deep understanding of YouTube and how to effectively grow a personal brand channel.

You’ll work directly with the CEO of Trybe, Lukas, documenting the life and behind the scenes of a 25 year old running 2 different 9 figure companies. Trybe was founded 1 year ago and was recently valued at over $100M, with the expectation to hit a $1B valuation in the next 12 months. We are building the future, and need someone to help architect the way that story is recorded AND distributed.

THIS IS NOT AN EASY POSITION

You’ll work long, non normal hours, and will be held to an extremely high standard, but it will be fun, challenging, and important. 

You’ll help run the YouTube channel as well until its big enough to justify an actual Head of YouTube role/leader.

This means that you will work hand and hand with editors, thumbnail designers, creative strategists, and clippers. 

The most important part? Chemistry. You'll spend a lot of time around Lukas. You need to know when to film, when to ask questions, and when to be a fly on the wall. We want someone who makes the people around them comfortable, not someone who turns every moment into a production.

What You'll Do

• Work directly with Lukas to develop creative ideas, stories, and recurring content series.
• Film behind-the-scenes moments, conversations, events, and everyday experiences.
• Own the creative direction, from identifying stories to shaping the final content.
• Capture high-quality video independently, including camera, lighting, and audio.
• Collaborate with short-form editors, long-form editors, and thumbnail designers.
• Help build a recognizable media presence across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn.
• Move quickly, experiment constantly, and figure things out without needing a playbook.

Qualifications

• Strong portfolio demonstrating videography, storytelling, and creative instincts.
• Proficiency with cameras, lighting, audio, and video editing software.
• Understanding of what makes content perform across social platforms.
• Ability to work independently and execute without a large production team.
• Strong interpersonal skills, situational awareness, and discretion.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, unpredictable environment.
• Based in New York City or willing to relocate.

Preferred

• Experience filming founders, entrepreneurs, creators, or documentary-style content.
• Experience developing original content concepts or growing social channels.
• Strong short-form editing capabilities.
• Interest in startups, entrepreneurship, and the creator economy.

Why Trybe?

• Front-row access: Work directly with a founder building and scaling businesses.
• Creative ownership: Help build a media brand from day one.
• Real stories: Document creators, entrepreneurs, and everyday people changing their lives.
• Opportunity to grow: Take ownership early and help shape the future media team.
• High-energy environment: Work with ambitious people who move fast and think big.
