ZAGG is hiring: Videographer - Social Media in Midvale

The Social Media Videographer owns mophie's social-first video output end to end — concept, capture, edit, publish and iterate. This role shoots product and lifestyle content in-studio and on location, cuts vertical video for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, and works from platform performance data rather than a fixed shot list. The role also serves as second camera on Tier 1 campaign shoots led by the Senior Video Producer. The ideal candidate is a creator first and an operator second: fluent in what is working on each platform right now, fast enough to turn a trend around inside its window, and self-sufficient from idea to posted asset without heavy oversight.
Key Responsibilities

Create

Shoot product and lifestyle video in-studio and on location, solo and on small crews
Edit social-first vertical video for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts — raw capture through final delivery
Operate camera, lighting and audio on solo and small-crew shoots; set up and strike studio lighting, grip and set
Serve as second camera / camera operator on Tier 1 campaign shoots
Cut multiple hooks, lengths and aspect ratios from a single shoot for testing across placements
Shoot and edit lo-fi, creator-style content where the polished version would underperform
Publish and Grow

Own the social content calendar day to day: pitch, batch, schedule and publish against it
Source trends, sounds and formats weekly, and flag which ones mophie should move on
Write captions, hooks, on-screen text and hashtags fitted to each platform
Read performance in native analytics and adjust the next round of content to what the data shows
Support community management: surface comment themes, reply-worthy moments and content requests back to the team
Operate

Manage media end to end: ingest, back up, organize and archive footage to team standards
Maintain consistent framing, color and pacing across all delivered content
Repurpose Tier 1 campaign footage into social cutdowns
Maintain camera and studio equipment; flag repair and replacement needs
Contribute ideas in content planning, shot listing and batch shoot prep
Qualifications

Experience

2–4 years producing and editing video for brand or creator social channels
Reel or portfolio of social-first vertical work, with performance numbers attached to at least some of it
Track record of owning content from idea through posted asset, not just the edit
Craft

Strong fundamentals in camera operation (mirrorless or cinema bodies), lighting and audio
Comfortable with gimbal work — stabilized movement, tracking and walk-and-talk shots
Confident shooting on phone when the format calls for it, and able to make it look intentional
On-camera presence or comfort directing non-actors and internal talent
Tools

Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve; working knowledge of After Effects
CapCut or an equivalent fast-turn mobile and desktop editor
Native platform editors and publishing tools across TikTok, Instagram and YouTube
A social scheduling and analytics platform (Later, Sprout Social, Dash Hudson or similar)
AI Skills

Baseline working fluency is expected. We are not looking for an AI specialist — we are looking for someone who already uses these tools to move faster and knows where they don't belong.
Comfortable using AI in a normal production workflow: transcription and auto-captioning, generative fill and object removal, background cleanup, upscaling, rough-cut and b-roll assistance
Able to write clear prompts and iterate toward a usable result rather than accepting the first output
Uses AI for supporting work — caption drafts, hook and headline variations, concept and shot list brainstorming — while keeping final creative judgment their own
Understands the limits: no fabricated product imagery, invented features or unverified claims, and no AI-generated likeness without clearance
Willing to learn and adopt new tools as the team's workflow changes
Platform

Current working knowledge of TikTok, Instagram and YouTube Shorts specs, formats and ranking behavior
Able to read native analytics — retention curves, watch time, saves, shares — and explain what to change
Fluent in platform culture: what a trend is worth, when it has passed, and what will read as trying too hard
Working Style

Able to manage multiple deliverables on deadline with minimal supervision
Able to lift and move production equipment up to 50 lbs and stand for extended periods on shoot days
Preferred

Consumer electronics, accessories or e-commerce brand experience
Has grown a channel — brand or personal — with numbers to show for it
Motion graphics and After Effects template work
Advanced color grading and node-based workflows in DaVinci Resolve Studio
Strobe and continuous lighting experience
Still photography capability for social and e-commerce use
Experience briefing creators or managing UGC and influencer deliverables
Familiarity with paid social: cutting variants for testing and working alongside a media buyer
Experience with livestream or shoppable video formats
