What You'll Do
- Tell the engineering story visually by capturing and editing high-quality video footage and still photos of pulser-driven inertial fusion systems.
- Translate nanoseconds, terawatts, and ignition science into accessible visual narratives.
- Own end-to-end production: concept, pre-production, shooting, editing, finishing, and publishing.
- Document key technical demonstrations, module builds, facility groundbreakings, and commissioning moments.
- Shape our employer brand by interviewing engineers, technicians, operators, and leadership.
- Support executive storytelling by filming and producing thought leadership and social media content.
- Support internal communications with multimedia for awards and recognition, and manage company photography.
- Create platform-native content, from short-form social clips to mid-form explainers and longer documentary-style pieces.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, technical, comms, operations, and external affairs teams.
What We're Looking For
- A self-starter who manages your own time, works independently, and liaises directly with leadership and technical teams.
- You see stories unfolding and instinctively start filming or photographing.
- You are fascinated by science and hard tech, eager to document the progress of a first-of-its-kind energy project.
- You can sit in on a technical meeting and think through how to tell a complex story visually without disrupting the conversation.
- You are fluent in video, photography, and editing tools and know how to operate a drone.
- You understand pacing, composition, and documentary-style storytelling.
- You are organized and easily manage timelines, structured file systems, and scalable workflows.
- You are comfortable traveling between California and New Mexico.
- You have a portfolio demonstrating compelling storytelling across product, technology, or hard-tech environments.
