AI Native Creative (Contract)
<h2><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>AI Native Creative (Contract)</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Remote, US</strong></span></p>
<h3><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>ABOUT BARK </strong></span></h3>
<h3><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>BARK makes magic for dogs.</strong></span></h3>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">We launched BarkBox in 2011 and have shipped more than 70 million toys and treats to dogs worldwide. Our brand voice is weird, emotional, internet-native, and very online. We care deeply about making things people actually want to watch.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Now we’re looking for someone who can create at the speed the internet moves.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>THE ROLE </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This is basically a one-person AI content studio inside BARK.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You’ll work directly with the VP of Brand and Chief Creative Officer to turn raw ideas into finished creative across social, product launches, landing pages, campaigns, and whatever weird opportunity showed up that morning.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Sometimes the brief is fully formed. Sometimes it’s a sentence in Slack. Either way: you make something real out of it fast.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This starts as a contract role. We’re intentionally keeping it small while we find the right people. If there’s a fit, we expect that to become obvious quickly.</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>WHAT YOU’LL ACTUALLY DO</strong></span></h2>
<ul>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Turn ideas into finished creative quickly — often within days, sometimes within hours</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Create short-form video for TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts, paid social, launches, and brand moments</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Use AI tools to generate visuals, motion, concepts, edits, VO, scripts, worlds, and content systems</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Build full asset suites across video, static, motion, landing pages, and PDPs</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Adapt creative per platform instead of making one thing and resizing it 12 times</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Experiment constantly with new tools and workflows</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Bring your own ideas. A lot of them.</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Operate independently without waiting for perfect process</span></li>
</ul>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>THIS ROLE IS FOR YOU IF…</strong></span></h2>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You’re already living in AI creative tools every day.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You probably have some combination of Runway, Midjourney, Claude, Flux, Veo, Kling, ElevenLabs, or whatever launched last week open right now.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You care about taste as much as speed.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You hate AI slop.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You see most AI-generated content and immediately know why it doesn’t work.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You like making things people replay, send to friends, or comment “wait how did they make this?”</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You’re not precious about creative. You ship, learn, remix, improve, repeat.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">And yes — you genuinely love dogs. That part matters more than you think.</span></li>
</ul>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR</strong></span></h2>
<ul>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">A portfolio with range, speed, and point of view</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Strong AI-native creative instincts</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Fluency in modern AI creative workflows</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Video editing skills (CapCut, Premiere, DaVinci, etc.)</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Deep understanding of internet culture and short-form storytelling</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Someone who can move from idea to execution without a giant team around them</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Bonus points if you’ve worked inside a brand with a distinct voice and know how to make creative that still feels cohesive while moving fast.</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>TOOLS YOU MIGHT USE</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Runway · Veo · Midjourney · Flux · Kling · ElevenLabs · CapCut · Premiere · Claude · Weavy · whatever dropped three days ago</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>IMPORTANT</strong></span></h2>
<ul>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This is not a traditional social media role.</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This is not “prompting.”</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This is not posting templates into a content calendar.</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">We’re looking for someone who treats AI like a creative instrument and knows how to turn speed into original brand storytelling.</span></li>
<li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">If that sounds like your natural habitat, we’d love to see your work.</span></li>
</ul>
