Lead Video Producer & Editor for Frontier AI Films

hackajob is collaborating with Mercor to connect them with exceptional professionals for this role.

Mercor is recruiting UK-based Video Producers and Editors with experience at leading motion design and creative production studios for a research project with a leading frontier AI lab. We are seeking two profiles: senior video/creative producers and video editors / multimedia designers with a proven track record of producing world-class commercial and brand film. We have a strong preference for candidates with experience at studios such as BUCK, Tendril, Future Deluxe, Hornet, Giant Ant, or Ordinary Folk.

This role is specifically focused on video production and post-production — not brand identity or static graphic design. Candidates should have reels or portfolios that demonstrate excellence in commercial film, brand content, motion design, editorial, or campaign work.

• Producing high-quality video and film for leading technology companies, global brands, startups, or cultural institutions
• End-to-end production: scoping, budgeting, scheduling, client management, and directing creative teams through delivery (producer track)
• Editing, motion design, and finishing in tools such as Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, or Cinema 4D (editor track)
• Commercial, branded content, or campaign film production
• Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to deliver polished, production-ready film and video

• BUCK
• Tendril
• Future Deluxe
• Hornet
• Giant Ant
• Ordinary Folk
• Or another leading studio with an exceptional commercial and brand film portfolio

• You will be contributing high-quality training data for frontier AI systems
• Successful contributions increase the likelihood of being selected for future Mercor projects

• Resume and reel/portfolio review
• Short assessment evaluating video production expertise

Please note:

Candidates must be based in the United Kingdom and have the right to work in the United Kingdom.
