Job DescriptionABOUT

NHack2skill is an innovation management platform that designs and runs large-scale hackathons, bootcamps, workshops, vibe coding challenges and more for some of the world's biggest brands like Google, Microsoft, Samsung, Adobe, Meta, Intel, and more. We've trained 8 million+ innovators, partnered with 10,000+ institutes including IITs and NITs, and hold a Guinness World Record for the largest Agentic AI hackathon — 1,941 developers, 30 hours, one floor.

NThe events we run are deeply technical in nature with developers & builders as our primary target audience. The video content we create lives alongside this world. It needs to speak to developers, students, and technical decision-makers, not a general consumer audience.

NTHE ROLE

nWhat you'll be doing:

NYou'll own the full videopipeline at Hack2skill. You'll be working across multiple concurrent programs, each with its own identity, audience, and deadlines. You're expected to move fast without cutting corners.

NShort-form videos — Reels, Shorts, Stories, WhatsApp broadcasts

N

n
- Edit and create short-form videos (15–90 seconds) for Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and WhatsApp broadcasts
N
- Hook-first editing — the first 3 seconds need to earn the next 30. Every frame earns its place.
N
- Registration countdown videos, program teasers, speaker reveals, leaderboard highlights
N
- Cut-downs from longer event footage repurposed for social feeds
N
- Quick turnaround — same-day or next-day delivery expected for time-sensitive content
N

nLong-form narrative videos — Event films, program stories, impact recaps

N

n
- Produce 3–5 minute narrative films for hackathon events, program launches, and annual impact recaps
N




- Structure a story arc from raw footage: problem → energy → build → outcome → emotion. Not just a montage.
N
- Interview-driven content featuring participants, mentors, and client-side partners
N
- Write or closely collaborate on scripts and voice-over copy where needed
N
- End-to-end ownership: briefing, rough cut, feedback loops, final delivery
N

nGIFs & motion graphic videos — Animated content for social and web

N

n
- Create looping GIFs for social announcements, countdowns, and program milestones
N
- Design and animate motion graphic videos: stat reveals, timeline animations, data visualisations
N
- Build lower-third animations, kinetic typography, and branded transition sequences
N
- Animate social media story templates and reusable motion assets for the team
N
- Output optimised files for web (GIF under 8MB), social (MP4), and email embeds
N

nPost-event videos — Recap, highlights, winner stories

N

n
- Edit live-event highlight reels within 24–48 hours of event wrap — fast turnaround is non-negotiable
N
- Create winner announcement and awards ceremony cuts for social and press
N
- Build longer event recap films (5–10 mins) for client reporting, LinkedIn, and platform use
N
- Capture the atmosphere: the 2 AM coding session, the mentor huddle, the winning reveal — these moments tell the story
N




- Coordinate with photographers and on-ground team to ensure footage coverage is brief-ready
N

nProduct & platformvideos — Feature walkthroughs, explainers, onboarding

N

n
- Create screen-recorded + narrated explainer videos for Hack2skill's platform features
N
- Produce onboarding videos for participants, organizers, and enterprise clients
N
- Animate product flows and feature announcements for launch campaigns
N
- Keep a library of reusable platform footage, assets, and template segments
N

- Experience editing content for technical audiences (developer communities, edtech, B2B SaaS)
N
- Comfort with on-ground filming at live events (camera handling, basic lighting awareness)
