YouTube Producer

Four years ago, Dragonfruit set out to bring together some of the most talented visual storytellers, viral video strategists, and big-name clients, to change the way we create and consume on YouTube. The result has been bigger than we could have imagined, having generated over a billion organic views and hundreds of millions of subscribers for creators like MrBeast, Ali Abdaal, Neil Patel, Chris Williamson, Codie Sanchez, and orgs like Y Combinator, e.l.f beauty, WHOOP, ClickUp, Linktree, Center for Humane Technology & more. Unlike other social media agencies or YouTube businesses, Dragonfruit refuses to celebrate a “creator economy” that trades viewers’ time and attention for rapid-fire dopamine entertainment. Instead, we want to lead a global movement to make YouTube a more valuable and educational place for all people; where views and subscribers are never an end in and of themselves, but rather a means of increasing human flourishing; where viral-educational YouTube channels not only bolster awareness and impact for our client's brands, but also create genuine value in viewers’ lives. The Role As a YouTube Producer at Dragonfruit, your strength is operational excellence. You will own the integrity of our production operating system. That includes maintaining task hygiene in throughout our Production System, enforcing documentation standards, auditing workflows for breakdowns, and continuously improving throughput, clarity, and predictability. This is a systems-first production role . While you will collaborate with Creative Directors, your primary responsibility is designing, maintaining, and optimizing production workflows across multiple accounts. This role is 10–20% creative alignment and 80–90% operational execution, systems thinking, and technical project management. Day-to-day, you’ll own the production process across 3-5 client accounts and manage 400+ videos in active production at once. That means allocating editors, anticipating bottlenecks and acting as a trusted partner to clients—guiding timelines, deliverables, and approvals while communicating with empathy, clarity, and authority. This role is about powering the heartbeat of the most influential YouTube channels in the world. Our clients reach tens of millions of viewers every month, shaping conversations in business, personal & professional development, health & wellness, and beyond. As a Producer, you’re not just managing deadlines—you’re ensuring the ideas that matter most get delivered to the world at scale. In practice, that makes you one of the most pivotal players in Dragonfruit’s journey to become the most prestigious YouTube agency on the planet. Your work will fuel the growth of channels that are redefining what YouTube can be. What you can expect: An exciting startup culture – work cross-functionally, wear several hats, and occasionally work long hours, during evenings, and/or weekends. We are a hungry and ambitious group of people trying to accomplish something large and challenging and we’re looking for folks who are enthusiastic and willing to do what is required to reach their goals. Personal growth – use Dragonfruit’s culture of excellence as an incubator to improve your professional skills, learn new mental models, sharpen your critical thinking, and increase productivity. Be a key player in a fast-growing company – help to identify blind spots in our service offering and work collaboratively with the team to improve systems/processes. Earn more – take advantage of regular performance-based raises, generous referral and sales commissions, & more. Skills and Qualifications: 2+ years of experience as a Producer, Production Manager, or Project Manager in a creative, media, or agency setting Proven ability to manage complex, high-volume production pipelines across multiple client accounts simultaneously without compromising on quality or deadlines Exceptional operator mindset – you’re detail-oriented, highly organized, and proactive in spotting and solving problems before they escalate Resource allocation and capacity planning expertise – you know how to assign editors effectively based on strengths, bandwidth, and deadlines Confident communicator with clients – You can empathetically set boundaries, communicate trade-offs, and frame delays in a way that maintains trust. Systems & Technical Competency (required) Advanced fluency in project management tools (ClickUp, Asana, Monday, etc.) — including automations, dashboards, dependencies, and workflow design. Ability to design and improve repeatable workflows — you think in systems, not tasks. Experience managing 100+ concurrent deliverables at once without losing visibility. Comfortable analyzing data to inform decisions (capacity planning, editor allocation, delivery timelines). Clear documentation habits — you leave processes better documented than you found them. This Role Is Not For You If: You prefer unstructured creative environments without standardized workflows. You struggle with documentation, process discipline, or technical tools. You prefer ideation over execution. Work from anywhere (we're 100% remote). Competitive Healthcare Coverage (medical, dental, vision). Gifts or cash bonuses on birthdays, work anniversaries, and other work-related achievements. Unlimited reimbursements on book purchases. Paid volunteering: 1 day dedicated to supporting a choice of cause. Work directly with some of the largest creators/brands on the planet. Work for a company that is values-oriented and committed to positive social impact.
