What are the responsibilities and job description for the Content Creator position at Pacagen?
Pacagen (pacagen.com) is a house of brands focused on disrupting consumer industries through biotechnology-backed products built by our in-house research lab. Our first brand and products help with allergies to pets and dust that over 60,000 families are using in our second year on the market. Our second brand is launching in the summer of 2026.
We are a venture-funded startup and founded by experienced entrepreneurs who have built and sold nine-figure businesses before. We are backed by some of the best venture firms in the world (Maveron, Khosla Ventures, Mars).
About The Role
We are looking for a creator who lives and breathes storytelling. This role is far more than filming and editing. You will shape how the world sees Pacagen. You bring ideas to the table, turn them into concepts, and translate them into videos that spark emotion, curiosity, and trust. You will also get to shape how our affiliate and influencer community tells the Pacagen story and play a hands-on role in launching the creative vision for our second brand. As our first in-house Content Creator, you will help define the visual identity of a biotech-backed consumer brand. You will collaborate closely with our co-founders, who previously built one of the fastest-growing science-backed beauty brands in the country.
If you love the idea of taking science, pets, people, and emotion and turning them into scroll-stopping short-form content, you will thrive here.
To apply, please submit a one minute intro video along with your CV/portfolio to Lan@pacagen.com. Tell us a story about yourself or your pet so we can get a feel for your style and creative voice.
Responsibilities
- Lead and produce the majority of Pacagen’s short-form videos for Meta ads and organic social.
- Own the full production pipeline, from idea development to scripting, shooting, editing, and final delivery.
- Bring a strong creative point of view and test new concepts to drive performance.
- Film high-quality content with strong lighting, sound, and visual composition.
- Collaborate with the marketing, product, and science teams to translate insights into compelling narratives.
- Support growth goals by creating content that drives awareness and conversions.
- Support managing affiliates, influencers, and UGC creators for Pacagen and help with creative launches for our second brand.
Qualifications
- BA or BS in any field with a record of strong academic or professional achievement.
- Proven skill across the full lifecycle of short-form content creation.
- Strong understanding of live recording, lighting, sound, and on-set fundamentals.
- Excellent editing skills.
- Deep passion for video. You think in shots and transitions. You study trends. You care about pacing and storytelling.
- Hungry to learn, improve, and explore new creative ideas.
- High standards. You push work past “good enough” without being asked.
Additional Comments
Why work with us?
We’re a fast-paced start up that is using cutting-edge science to deliver life-changing consumer products. We only launch products we truly believe in and our team works hard to make sure we can get those products into the hands of people that need them most. You will be joining a passionate, caring, smart, and hard-working team supporting one another to deliver on the company’s bold mission. Working at Pacagen will be an exciting growth opportunity for your career. You’ll get exposure to world-class partners, mentors, and innovative people from every field.
Why NOT work with us?
Two reasons:
- You’ll notice that the phrase “fast-paced” is in this job description multiple times. Building an amazing, profitable company in a few years is not easy and we aren’t here to pretend like it is (believe us, we’ve done this before). Startups can be stressful and are not made for everyone, but on the flip-side extremely rewarding. The best performers get a career boost more drastic than anything they could imagine, but not everyone is fit for the job.
- We sincerely believe in our mission to improve our customer’s quality of life and deliver high-efficacy, cutting-edge products. Our team includes world-class scientists, experienced product developers, and avid product-lovers, all laser focused on delivering the best products on the market. If this doesn’t light you up, this role may not be the right fit.
Location: New York, New York
