Internship Youtube Script Writer Jobs in Nevada (NOW HIRING)

Are you obsessed with YouTube storytelling, audience retention, and what makes someone click?

Do you analyze thumbnails and titles, study why videos perform, and constantly think about stronger hooks, better jokes, and more engaging stories?

The Spy Ninjas Animation Team is looking for a YouTube Writer who understands how to create content specifically for a YouTube audience—not traditional film, television, or commercial media.

You’ll work closely with our creative and animation teams to develop highly engaging animated videos for a massive global audience. This role requires more than strong writing. We’re looking for someone who understands the complete YouTube package: the idea, thumbnail, title, opening hook, story structure, pacing, and payoff.

This is a 100% remote position. Candidates located in Nevada, Texas, Colorado, or Ohio are preferred.

• Develop YouTube-first video concepts, storylines, and episode formats
• Write engaging scripts designed to hold viewers’ attention
• Create strong opening hooks that immediately establish curiosity and stakes
• Pitch compelling titles and thumbnail concepts that make people want to click
• Build stories with strong pacing, comedy, escalation, and satisfying payoffs
• Collaborate with the animation and creative teams throughout production
• Review storyboards, animatics, and edits to provide feedback on pacing, clarity, humor, and retention
• Use audience behavior and video performance to improve future content
• Stay current on YouTube trends, formats, platform changes, and audience preferences
• Continuously identify ways to improve click-through rate, watch time, and viewer engagement

This role may be a great fit for you if you:

• Genuinely love YouTube and internet content culture
• Naturally think of video ideas, jokes, titles, hooks, and thumbnail concepts
• Understand that a great YouTube video starts before the script—with an idea people want to click on
• Write with pacing, retention, and audience psychology in mind
• Enjoy collaborative, fast-moving creative environments
• Can take feedback, make changes quickly, and continue improving an idea
• Are comfortable managing projects remotely and communicating clearly
• Want to build a long-term career creating digital content for a large audience

Requirements

• Strong experience writing for YouTube or other audience-driven digital content
• A strong understanding of YouTube storytelling, pacing, hooks, and viewer retention
• The ability to develop clickable video concepts, titles, and thumbnail direction
• Strong comedic instincts and an understanding of character-driven storytelling
• The ability to turn a broad creative idea into a clear, engaging script
• Strong creative problem-solving skills
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
• The ability to take feedback and revise quickly
• Comfortable working remotely in a fast-moving production environment

• Experience writing for established YouTube channels
• Experience with YouTube content designed for children, families, or a global audience
• Understanding of thumbnails, click-through rate, audience retention, and watch-time strategy
• Experience working with animation pipelines or animated content
• Familiarity with serialized storytelling, recurring characters, or ongoing story worlds
• Experience reviewing analytics and applying performance insights to future content

We are specifically looking for candidates who understand content created for YouTube audiences. Traditional film or television writing experience alone may not be enough for this role.

• The opportunity to create content viewed by millions of people worldwide
• Experience working with an established, large-scale YouTube brand
• A highly collaborative and creative work environment
• Portfolio-building projects with meaningful audience reach
• The opportunity to help shape the future of a growing animation team

• 401(k) with company match
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid time off
• Professional development assistance
