We’re building the smartest way to master backend development by tackling the hardest problem with e-learning: boredom. We’re a small team of developers who love to make the process of learning as fun and hands-on as it can be.

We’re looking for our 2nd full time video editor/animator to help us create really goddamn cool educational programming videos. We have two YouTube channels:
The majority of the work will be on the first channel, creating the 3-5 minute explainer videos. You’ll be given raw recordings of a talking head on a green screen, and be expected to turn it into the finished product. This requires getting to know the source material, and if you don’t already know how to code, an interest in learning. You won’t have all the concepts spelled out for you, you’ll need to figure out how to accurately animate or otherwise visually show what’s going on.
We don’t need someone with tons of experience, we need someone with great taste and that’s able to get really good really fast.
How to apply:
Send an email to lane at boot .dev with:
- Your resume
- A link to a YouTube video you really like (that’s similar to our channel) with your analysis of what you like/dislike and what you would do differently
- Links to your own work
- A personal note about why you’re a good fit
- If you want to go above and beyond, try your hand at redoing one of our videos on the channel - see if you can do it better!
