THE ROLE
We're looking for an organized, proactive AP who wants to grow into a world-class YouTube producer. You'll own the operational side of every production: locations booked, crew confirmed, budget tracked, vendors followed up on. Nothing slips on your watch. You work directly under the Lead Producer and are the reason the logistics side of a production runs clean.

But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
