Context

At Radio Ambulante Studios, we’ve spent years producing stories with care. 

The Moment is our first English-language show and video podcast. Our thought-provoking conversations reach audiences through podcast apps, full-length video episodes on YouTube, and short-form clips across social media. We’ve built something that depends not only on strong editorial judgment, but also on reliable technical execution. Every week, stories need to move seamlessly from recording to editing, publishing, and distribution across platforms.

This is a multi-platform show that only works when someone is paying close attention to how projects are built, organized, and delivered. Behind every episode is a workflow that must be thoughtful, consistent, and dependable.

The Role

The Video Podcast Engineer & Editor is a freelance position responsible for the technical execution of The Moment from recording through final delivery. This is a weekly, deadline-driven show with timely releases, requiring consistent turnaround rather than batch workflows.

This is a hands-on, execution-focused role: ensuring recordings run smoothly, media is handled correctly, content is edited efficiently and professionally, and episodes are delivered cleanly across audio and video. 

This engagement is focused on execution and delivery. Editorial direction, creative decision-making, and social strategy are led by other team members.
