About Astra:
Astra Security is a leader in the penetration testing space, recognized by G2 in the Pentest category. With headquarters in the US & India, Astra is the trusted security partner for leading brands including Muthoot Finance, Loom, CompTIA, NIIT, Goldcast, HackerRank, Sprinto, ITC & more. Its one-of-a-kind continuous pentest platform is trusted by 1,200+ companies across 100+ countries, from fast-growing startups to Fortune 100 giants.
Astra's autonomous pentest platform pairs AI agents with certified human pentesters to continuously pentest applications and infrastructure at scale. Vulnerabilities are discovered, validated, and chained the way a real attacker would. Beyond pentesting, Astra's suite includes a DAST Scanner, Cloud Vulnerability Scanner, and API Security Platform, giving teams continuous coverage across web apps, cloud environments, and APIs from a single dashboard. With over 18,000 vulnerabilities detected daily, Astra helps customers prevent millions in potential losses while saving thousands of developer hours. Last year alone, Astra uncovered more than 6.8 million vulnerabilities for its customers.
Astra's research team actively contributes to the OWASP community, including helping shape the OWASP Autonomous Penetration Testing Standard (APTS) and contributing to the OWASP Top 10 for LLM and Generative AI Security Risks. Astra is CREST-accredited, CERT-IN empaneled, and a PCI ASV, reflecting its commitment to the highest standards of security testing.
We've been awarded by the President of France Mr. François Hollande at the La French Tech program and Prime Minister of India Shri Narendra Modi at the Global Conference on Cyber Security. Loom, MamaEarth, Muthoot Finance, Canara Robeco, ScripBox etc. are a few of Astra’s customers.
Why this role exists
Astra has a strong written content engine. Video is the gap.
Our category gets explained almost entirely in text right now, while the people we want to reach are learning on YouTube, LinkedIn, and Instagram. A security engineer looks up how a pentest actually works on YouTube long before they read a vendor page. A CTO watches a two-minute clip to understand autonomous pentesting rather than reading a datasheet.
We are not in either of those moments.
We are hiring one person to own video end-to-end. What gets made, who makes it, where it goes, and whether it worked. You will be on camera, behind the strategy, and inside the analytics.
This is not a role where you write a brief and wait for an agency. You will script, shoot, host, and ship.
What you will own
The channel and the face
Be the on-camera presence for Astra across YouTube, LinkedIn, and Instagram
Set the voice, format, and look of Astra video so it is recognizable in three seconds
Ship on a predictable cadence, not in bursts
Build shows and series, not one-off videos. Series compound; single videos do not
Top of funnel education
Make the definitive videos for what our market actually searches: what a penetration test is, how to read a pentest report, what VAPT covers, how continuous pentesting differs from an annual audit, OWASP Top 10 explained properly
Break down real vulnerabilities and real findings in a way a first-year analyst and a CISO can both sit through
Go deeper over time. Live walkthroughs, teardowns, methodology explainers, guest sessions with our pentesters
Make some of it fun. Security content is drowning in seriousness, and that is an opening, not a rule
Product and PMM video
Product walkthroughs, feature launches and screen recordings for the Autonomous Pentest platform
Demo videos that sales can send and that convert on landing pages
A launch video for every major release, working alongside product marketing and product
Customer stories and use case films
Search, discovery and entity building
Treat YouTube as a search engine, not a social feed. Titles, thumbnails, chapters, descriptions, playlists, retention curves
Rank Astra video in Google results and video carousels for our core commercial and informational queries
Use video plus structured data to strengthen Astra as a recognized entity in Google's knowledge graph
Embed video across blogs and landing pages to lift time on page and assisted conversions
Grow subscribers and followers on YouTube, Instagram and LinkedIn, and grow watch time faster than follower count
The owned video property
Build an Astra video hub on our own domain. A place people browse, not just a playlist. Think of it as our own channel rather than a folder of uploads
Launch Astra Academy: a structured library for junior and mid-level security folks who want to get good at offensive security and application security
Mix our own teaching with sessions from practitioners and creators in the space
Host it ourselves so we keep the traffic, the emails, and the search value
The team
Hire and run a small pod of interns and freelancers across editing, shorts, motion graphics, and thumbnails
Build a production system so output does not depend on your calendar
Own the budget for gear, editors, creator collaborations, and paid distribution tests
Bonus points if you have
Background in cybersecurity, developer tools, or another technical B2B category
Experience building an owned video property, course, or academy
Motion graphics, After Effects, or strong thumbnail design
Experience running creator or influencer collaborations
Running or built a YouTube channel or Instagram account
SEO knowledge beyond video
Not required
Agency background
A film degree
Years of corporate videos nobody watched
Why you will love working here

A cooperative, feedback-friendly culture that values learning and experimentation
Flexible hybrid setup with the best of in-person collaboration and remote focus time
