What is Bilt?Bilt is the membership for where you live.
What started as a way to reward people on their largest expense has turned into an ecosystem connecting our members, property managers and local merchants.Travel, dining, fitness, everyday spend. We are building systems across payments, credit, loyalty, and commerce all at once.
We run lean and move quickly. Every person here has a real impact on what gets built and how fast it happens.
This role comes with real ownership and high expectations. If you prefer clearly defined lanes and structure, this will feel uncomfortable. If you want to build quickly, have a real say in what gets built, and work on products used by millions, you will likely do your best work here.
What’s the role?Bilt is building an in-house Media Studio - a cutting-edge brand marketing team focused on creating original social media IP and series. We started with our Webby Award-winning series, Roomies, and are now developing a full portfolio of innovative content in the next 12 months. We're looking for a Video Lead to be the creative engine of this team. You’ll shoot, edit, and bring new concepts to life.
You'll work alongside our Senior Content Director and an in-house Producer (in collaboration with our CMO) to concept, test, and iterate on new series—taking ideas from brainstorming to published content with real traction.

• Develop and execute the visual language for new series—framing, color, movement, tone
• Edit content end-to-end, with a particular strength in dialogue (scripted and unscripted) and narrative

• Have a strong feel for color, sound, and finishing to ensure a polished final product
• Partner with the Director to develop new show ideas and formats from scratch
• Bring a wide range of visual references, inspiration, and original ideas to the table
• Stay plugged into the social and media landscape and bring that perspective to our development process

In terms of qualifications, we’re seeking:

• Strong visual eye—you know how to create striking images through camera, lighting, and color
• Excellent editorial instincts, especially with dialogue and narrative
