About TubeScience
TubeScience is the fastest-growing maker of performance-driven video content. We partner with some of the worlds most innovative brands to create test and scale video ads that combine sharp creative taste with measurable results. Speed matters here; but taste sets the bar.
TubeScience is performance-driven. The consumer is always rightdata is just large groups of people telling us what they found valuable. We dont see taste and performance as tension. Taste and style are good Bayesian priors (informed starting assumptions that get validated or refined as evidence comes in). Youre not here to override what works. Youre here to raise the starting point; so we begin with better hypotheses learn faster and make work that earns attention because it deserves it.
The Role
This is a high-ownership creative leadership role where you set the bar for quality protect it under pressure and develop leaders who understand both performance and aesthetics. When teams ask Is this actually good youre the one they turn to. Youll partner closely with the VP of Post-Production sharing ownership of creative vision systems and day-to-day standards; leading with conviction while collaborating to make those standards stick.
What Youll Do
Youll define what good looks like. Not as a set of subjective preferences but as a teachable point of view. Then youll build the systems to make it stick: reference libraries rubrics training programs leveling assessments hiring filters feedback processes.
Youll identify where tools including AI and what were building in-house can create leverage without sacrificing craft. This isnt a role where you have opinions and other people implement them. Youll architect the systems yourself and own whether they work.
Youll also hold the line. Standards only matter if someone enforces them. Some people will rise to meet the bar. Some wont make it. Youll need backbone.
This is a building role not a maintenance role. Theres no playbook. Youre creating a function that doesnt exist yet. That means you have real authority to shape something from scratch.
What Success Looks Like
Your taste becomes the organizations taste not because youre in every room but because youve built systems that transfer your judgment to others.
Quality becomes consistent. Editors make fewer bad calls. The work gets better and the iterations get faster.
Hiring improves. Youre filtering for instinct not just speed. The teams baseline rises.
Youve built something that outlasts youtraining rubrics standards that live beyond any single person.
We move fast. Volume is real. Youll need to know when craft matters and when good enough is good enough. Preciousness wont survive here. But fast and good arent opposites. Better taste means fewer iterations to find what works. Craft is efficiency.
