We’re a high-performance, low-ego team driven by urgency, collaboration, and bold thinking. Working at Flock means tackling big challenges, moving fast, and continuously improving. It’s intense but deeply rewarding for those who want to make an impact.

With nearly $700M in venture funding and a $7.5B valuation, we’re scaling intentionally and seeking top talent to help build the impossible. If you value teamwork, ownership, and solving tough problems, Flock could be the place for you.

As a Social Video Editor at Flock Safety, you’ll be at the center of how our brand connects with audiences online. You’ll edit and produce social-first videos that showcase the power of our technology, celebrate our customers, and tell compelling stories that inspire action.

You’ll bring an editor’s eye for rhythm and pacing, a creator’s understanding of what drives engagement, and a marketer’s instinct for what works across platforms. You’ll collaborate closely with our videographers, motion designers, and entire marketing team to produce a high volume of thumb-stopping, on-brand content that drives awareness, affinity, and growth.

If you’re energized by speed, creativity, and the ever-changing nature of social storytelling, this is your chance to build one of the most exciting brands in public safety.
