What Is Studio?

Studio is building social software for creatives—and we are starting with our group camcorder app.

Do you remember as a child, taking family vacations and having your mom or dad record all the highlights on their camcorder?

Then when you got home, you’d sit around with your family, rewatch the memories, and laugh & smile all the way through?

That is the essence of our first product, which you can download here.

High schoolers & college students across the US use our app everyday to record shared memories and turn them into private episodes of a fun group reality show.

We believe the future of social is video first, private first and multiplayer first.

There is no greater entertainment in the world than a story well told. And what better way to tell a story than through video?

Who We Are

We are product-focused—we take pride in our craftsmanship and building from a shared set of principles.

We are empathetic and mindful technologists. We care deeply about how our product impacts our users over the long term.

We want to leverage technology to deliver meaningful experiences for people in the real world. We see software as form of art where we can come together to express ourselves, and empower anyone in the world to be creative.

We just raised a 3.3MM seed round led by Google Ventures (GV).

What You’ll Be Responsible For

We are looking for someone who can be the foundation of our design team from a visual and cultural standpoint.

You will directly work with the founders to deliver an ambitious roadmap and shape the vision, product, and user experience.

Responsibilities may include:

• Designing the UI/UX of our group camcorder app

• Ideating new features & shaping the roadmap

• Creating & refining our design system

Who You Are

At Studio, we strongly believe in bringing your whole self to your work. Diverse teams build the most meaningful products with the utmost empathy. We are committed to hiring & supporting our team in a way that reflects these beliefs.
