Script Writer

Kanpur, India MyDataMachine Full time

tl;dr: 


job role

explore internet rabbit holes, scroll insta & yt shorts, try to catch early trends and write scripts for short form videos


salary

starting with 35k, going upto 60k.


who should apply

(college student, endlessly curious, or even if you’ve 10+ years of experience but want to explore this side of the world - we should talk)


sounds interesting? 

perfect here’s what we’re up to:


what are we building?


you’ve heard the phrase “attention is the new currency” multiple times now.


It’s true. 


getting people’s attention is harder than ever.


we are trying to solve that. we are trying to get eyeballs of people (btw, we are not ad company)


we have churned out 160 videos in the last 2 weeks and now we’re ready to go bigger (we have team of 10 vid editors)


we are building the content machine with help from some seriously impressive ex-founders in SF. (trust us, you’ll be excited to meet them.)


you will be a force multiplier (not chatpgt suggested word, promise) for our two-person scripting team. 


your goal is to churn out scripts that stop people mid-scroll.


first thing first, what the role is NOT


  • this is not a “strategy” role. you’ll be rolling up your sleeves and jumping right into execution.


  • we’re not looking for scripts that start with “hey everyone, welcome to my channel.” you need a basic understanding of how script writing in short-form works.hook, storytelling, tension, ending, music choice, etc…


  • this role is primarily focused on short-form content. you might get to try long-form, but just a heads-up - we haven’t started long-form content yet. for the next 3 months, short-form will be your main focus.



what this role is really about


  • You find it fascinating to put a point in under 45 seconds video and constantly explore different ways to do it effectively. you understand hooks, pacing, and keeping things engaging.


  • you love to explore internet rabbit holes - think iconic movie scenes or overlooked podcast moments - that we can remix.


  • you’re fearless when it comes to experimentation (and we’re talking bold, crazy ideas)


  • you understand the gen-z vibe; if you’re gen-z, even better lol.



whoa, that’s a lot

we get that it sounds intense, but we’ll take it in phases. here’s how things will unfold:



week 1-2: 

  • get to know us. meet the editors and understand our process. 
  • start going into rabbit hole to dig that content gold - all those clips, articles, videos that are just waiting to be repurposed.


week 3-5: 

  • pitch and execute one wild idea we haven’t tried yet (it should be really wild)
  • start writing original scripts 


6th week onwards it’ll be a mix of everything: original scripts, fresh ideas, and finding clips to repurpose.


hiring process 


  • send a note to (7ronak7@gmail.com and cc: chintanbavishi596@gmail.com) highlighting why you would be a great fit. include one underrated video you think is pure magic (any genre is fine) and tell something interesting about you. this is literally script writing job so don't send boring corporate email lol.


  • if we like what we see, we’ll hop on a quick call and send you an assignment. promise, it will be small and won’t take more than 3 hrs.


  • chat with the team, get a feel and vibe, and if it clicks—you’re IN see you over the email

  • Video Anchor
