Job Description

About us

Our mission is to reinvent the way people learn, starting with language. We begin by teaching the next billion people English, Spanish, and French.

English is the global language of business, culture, and communication, and over 1.5 billion people around the world are actively trying to learn right now. Others dream of communicating with the half-billion native Spanish speakers across the globe. The problem is that it's nearly impossible to learn to  speak a language without constant access to a speaking partner. Grammar and vocab apps don't really help – you need to actually  converse with someone.

Speak is on a journey to fix this. We're creating an AI-powered experience that replicates the flow of a conversation,  without needing a human on the other end. The goal is to make it radically more accessible to be able to have conversations in a foreign language and eventually help hundreds of millions of people gain fluency who otherwise wouldn't be able to.

We started on this journey over five years ago and we've still got a long ways to go. We're thoughtfully adding new team members only when we think they can truly play a big role in our mission.

Speak launched first in South Korea where we have quickly grown to become the top grossing education app in the country. We have now delivered this winning product to more than 30 countries globally and are continuing to expand to more markets in the coming months. The company is well funded, raising a recent Series B backed by investors like OpenAI, Founders Fund, Y Combinator, Khosla Ventures, Lachy Groom, Josh Buckley, and others. We’re a team of 75 based primarily in SF, Seoul, Tokyo, and Ljubljana.

About this role

Join Speak’s Content team as a full-time Video Designer and contribute to our mission to revolutionize language learning!

In this in-house video editor role, you’ll have the opportunity to showcase your video design expertise, producing dynamic and impactful educational content for Speak’s global user base. If you’re passionate about video production and education, this is your chance to make a meaningful contribution.

What you’ll be doing

  • Produce high-quality learning videos in multiple languages for the Speak app, ensuring both visual and audio excellence and on-time delivery of the content.

  • Lead and manage video editing projects, working collaboratively with freelance editors to ensure consistency and high standards.

  • Collaborate closely with curriculum designers, writers, and production leads to ensure seamless video content workflow and creation.

  • Develop video prototypes tailored to a variety of teaching styles and methodologies.

  • Provide creative suggestions to enhance the audiovisual components of the user’s learning experience in the app and contribute to post-production improvements aligned with Speak’s brand, tone, and educational goals.

What we’re looking for

[Required]

  • Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Premiere Pro, After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop)

  • Strong design skills, including proficiency in creating subtitles and graphics

  • Passion for creating engaging learning videos that empower language learners worldwide

  • Excellent time management skills with the ability to meet assigned deadlines

  • A proactive, can-do spirit with the ability to take ownership of projects in a startup environment

  • Effective communication and collaboration skills as a team player

  • English fluency is required for communication with global offices in the US, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Ljubljana

[Preferred]

  • LA-based applicants are preferred, but all US-based remote candidates will be considered.

  • Experience creating educational videos for Ed-tech companies

  • Experience leading or participating in large-scale production projects

  • Experience leading or participating in vertical video production

  • Ability to think creatively and turn ideas into reality

  • Proficiency in a second language (Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, French, etc.) is a plus with proficiency in Korean strongly preferred

Why work at Speak

  1. Join a fantastic, tight-knit team at the right time: we're growing very quickly, we've raised our Series B and additional extensions from some of the top investors in the valley, and we've achieved product-market fit in our initial markets. You'd join at a magical time when a single person could significantly change the course of the company.

  2. Do your life's work with people you’ll love working with: we care strongly about our craft and want every person at Speak to feel like they're growing every day. We believe in the idea that working with people you both enjoy and have respect for makes everything better. We hire thoughtfully and only work with people we admire deeply.

  3. Global in nature: We're live in over 40 countries and launching in a number of new markets soon. We have dedicated offices in San Francisco, Ljubljana, Seoul, and Tokyo, and you’ll have the opportunity to talk to users in each of these regions on a regular basis as well as travel.

  4. Impact people's lives in a major way: Learning a language is one of the single most life-changing skills one can learn, and right now 99% of people never achieve their goal because the process is broken. We’re helping millions of people achieve their goals and improve their lives.
