Remote Film Programmer information

What is a remote film programmer?

Remote film programmers are professionals who curate, select, and organize films for festivals, streaming platforms, or special screenings, all while working from a remote location. Their job involves researching films, communicating with filmmakers and distributors, and creating thematic programs or lineups. They often watch large numbers of films online, evaluate submissions, and collaborate with event organizers to shape the viewing experience for audiences. Working remotely allows them to connect with international film communities and participate in programming for organizations around the world.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote film programmer?

To thrive as a Remote Film Programmer, you need expertise in film history and curation, strong analytical skills, and experience with programming or managing film lineups. Familiarity with digital screening platforms, film database systems, and possibly certifications in film studies or arts management are valuable. Excellent communication, organizational abilities, and cultural sensitivity are essential soft skills for collaborating with filmmakers, audiences, and team members remotely. These competencies ensure thoughtful film selection, smooth virtual event execution, and engaging audience experiences.

What are some typical challenges faced by remote film programmers, and how can they be effectively managed?

Remote film programmers often encounter challenges such as coordinating with international film distributors across multiple time zones, ensuring clear communication with festival teams, and efficiently evaluating large volumes of film submissions. To manage these, strong organizational skills, proactive communication through digital platforms, and maintaining a well-structured review process are essential. Building strong relationships with colleagues and filmmakers via regular virtual meetings also helps streamline programming decisions and fosters a collaborative remote work environment.

Job description

Position Summary

This role exists to evangelize the Harness AI platform, not by describing what it does, but by using it. You'll design practical use cases that show what a specific Harness capability actually solves for a practitioner, build that use case yourself inside the platform, and turn it into content that lets other practitioners design and execute the same thing on their own.

Video is part of the job, but it's the part we can coach. Our team can teach you how to run a shoot and cut a piece the way the best technical demo producers at developer-obsessed companies do it. The must-have skill is technical judgment, i.e., knowing which use case is worth building, where the real friction is, and how to demonstrate it credibly to someone who'd see through a scripted demo in five seconds. That has to be there on day one.

About the role
  • Design practical, realistic use cases inside Harness: the kind of problem a developer, a platform engineer, or a DevOps lead actually has, and build them yourself, end to end, inside the product
  • Run your own shoots (remote or in-person) with technical practitioners, including our Field CTOs: you operate the capture, not just receive footage from someone else
  • Produce technical content around each use case: concept, execution, and final piece are all yours, start to finish, across video and writing
  • Evangelize specific Harness AI capabilities (CI, CD, IDP, security, AI cost) in ways that map directly onto a practitioner's real workflow, not a feature list
  • Partner with our production team to sharpen craft: pacing, visual packaging, delivery, while owning the technical substance yourself
  • Pitch and pilot new formats and hooks on your own initiative
  • Let performance data steer what you build next: watch time and returning viewers tell you which use cases and capabilities are actually resonating, not a fixed calendar alone
  • Cross-functional partnership: You'll work closely with Product, Engineering, and the Field CTOs to source real use cases, and with Product Marketing to keep messaging aligned, but the execution and editorial judgment are yours.
About you
  • Deep, hands-on fluency with Harness or a comparable CI/CD, IDP, or DevOps platform: Familiarity with the broader DevOps/platform engineering space: GitOps, progressive delivery, SAST/SCA, DORA metrics, enough to design a use case from a blank slate and build it yourself, not follow someone else's script
  • A portfolio of technical content you've personally produced: concept, execution, and camera/edit, not just cut from footage someone else designed and shot. Links, not a reel.
  • Comfort operating your own recording setup, remote or in-person, with technical practitioners who are not professional presenters
  • The instincts of a practitioner: you think about a problem the way the person you're filming or the person you're creating the content for does, and you can tell the difference between a demo that's honest about friction and one that's just polished
  • Self-directed and productive: you don't wait for a brief. You spot the use case, build it, film it, and know what's worth keeping
  • Genuinely creative about capturing developer attention: you have your own ideas about what makes a technical audience stop scrolling and actually watch, and you'll push for the weird format or unconventional angle when the standard playbook feels stale, not just execute the four formats we've already defined

Nice to have:

  • Engineering background: people who can write code well enough to have opinions about it, and have since moved towards explaining and teaching it.
  • Existing video/production craft (framing, pacing, basic edit). We'll build on this, not require it on day one
  • A personal or team technical content channel you've grown yourself
What This Role Is Not

Worth being direct about this. This is not a video editing job. If your strongest skill is post-production and your technical depth is "I can follow along," this isn't the right fit. We can teach editing; we can't teach technical judgment. It's also not a role where someone else designs the demo, and you just point a camera at it. You're expected to find the use case, not just capture it.

What Success Looks Like in 90 Days
  • 2-3 original use cases you designed and built yourself inside Harness, each turned into a piece of content
  • A recording workflow you run independently, no one else needs to be behind the camera for you to ship
  • Early signal (watch time, returning viewers) on which use cases and capabilities are actually resonating with practitioners
  • A clear, credible point of view, in the content itself, on what a specific Harness capability solves and how a practitioner would actually use it
 
Work Location
  • Remote within the U.S
What you will have at Harness
  • Competitive salary
  • Comprehensive healthcare benefits
  • Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
  • Flexible work schedule
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Flexible Time Off and Parental Leave
  • Monthly, quarterly, and annual social and team building events
  • Monthly internet reimbursement

The anticipated base salary range for this position is $150,000 and $162,000 annually. Salary is determined by a combination of factors including location, level, relevant experience, and skills. The range displayed on each job posting reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hire salaries for the position across all US locations.  The compensation package for this position may also include equity, and benefits.
