Ableton VST Educator

Role Description

We're looking to hire someone to make genuinely great educational content for musicians and producers that helps them understand just how powerful the Daydream VST can be, with Ableton Live at the center of it. Some of this content will be straightforward:

• Loading the plugin
• Mapping the model's latent space to your faders and knobs
• Building a live remix
• Scheduling parameter curves on a timeline

You'll also be able to make aspirational content that shows what's possible when you play an AI model like an instrument, the kind of video that makes a producer want to stop scrolling and fire up an Ableton session right then and there.

You'll own a mix of formats:

• Longer tutorials that teach a real workflow
• Short social-first clips for X, Instagram, and TikTok
• Aspirational Ableton pieces that are closer to a performance than a lesson

We care more about whether the content is interesting than whether it follows a template.

Qualifications

• You already make compelling DAW content, and Ableton is your home.
• You know Ableton Live deeply, understand MIDI mapping and performance workflows, and have a body of work we can watch.
• You should be the kind of musician or producer who views AI as a resource, a sounding board, and a creative partner rather than as a threat.
• You should be a natural teacher, able to explain difficult concepts in clear and plain English.
• You should have taste and a clear artistic direction.
• You should be comfortable producing high-quality edited video content at scale.
• Experience with the VST format, hardware controllers, or live performance is a plus.
• Familiarity with other DAWs or with TouchDesigner is welcome but not required.

Logistics

This is a part-time contract role, and it's remote. We're flexible on cadence and can shape the arrangement around the right person. You'll work closely with our team, get early access to features before they ship, and have a direct line to the people building the engine.
