CloudFactory is changing the way the world works by providing an on-demand, digital workforce for scaling critical business processes in the cloud. We’re also on a mission to create meaningful work for as many people as possible.
This role requires a passion for visual storytelling, a high level of creativity, a solid understanding of the tools that bring a creative vision to life, attention to detail, and the ability to think and work independently at times. It might look like assisting with scripting out a new video one day, living life behind the camera the next day, diving into post-production later in the week, and polishing the week off by helping with the design of our latest digital curriculum. In short, if you love all things creative and want to bring static messages to life in a way that moves people, this is the role for you.
The Role
Seeking a visual artist at heart with the technical expertise of video production, which is great because that’s the bulk of what you’ll be doing with the CloudFactory Academy team. You are just as talented behind the lens and love life with a camera that can ‘run and gun’ with the best of them, capturing fantastic stories at any sort of event. But you’re also not afraid to direct a planned production. And when production is wrapped, you’re just getting started. You love diving into all forms of post-production, including editing, colour grading, sound engineering, and everything in between!
But you know there’s more to the visual artist than just video. You can dabble in graphic design and love to tinker around with all sorts of visual mediums. You can make a gif or create a stellar HDR photo, and if you don’t know how to do something you know how to find the answers. To save time, you know the value in customizing templates that are already out there.
Ultimately, you are a great content creator but want a challenge to help you grow. And that’s exactly what CloudFactory wants to do as well. We want to bring someone alongside us and give you the tools and time to shine. We know we are not where we want to be with the quality or quantity of what we can produce, and you are going to help turn that around!
Key Objectives
- Regularly participate in and contribute to the conceptualization of creative content, working closely with the CloudFactory Academy team to take vague needs and turn them into concrete production plans.
- Assist and/or lead the production of videos for the CloudFactory Academy, internal communications, and potentially external audiences. Video production and the various tasks involved in it will account for over 50% of the job.

Requirements
- 5+ years of Video Production Experience with a portfolio to demonstrate what you have produced (YouTube, Vimeo, or shared links) and a vision of what you want to one day be able to produce. Make no mistake, this is not an entry-level role and your video production abilities will be tested.
