Who we are

  • We’re a VC-backed start-up that has raised $9M to date frxom VC funds and private investors. Founded in 2019 by Florin Tufan, Mihai Vinaga and Sorina Vlasceanu, we’re currently a team of 50+ driven individuals, mostly engineers and technical people, investing our time to solve problems that haven’t been solved before anywhere in the world.
  • Even as a young company we already work with some of the largest enterprises in the world. We bring together exceptional minds and characters, people with a growth mindset, strongly committed to achieving high performance, both individually and as a team.

Who you are

  • Determined and resourceful, you prefer simple and straightforward communication and tend to be motivated by obstacles, not discouraged by them. You enjoy identifying and solving complex problems and don’t shy away from stepping out of your comfort zone, as you love learning more than you hate making mistakes.
  • A high-achiever, as proven by your extra-curricular, professional or academic experience, passionate about exploring the way different areas related to your activity impact your end results. You’re driven by your relentless curiosity and the desire for knowledge sharing with some of the best in the field.

What we do

  • We’re building the single source of truth for company data across all industries. We process billions of webpages and petabytes of data every week, then apply several AI models to break them down into usable business data, developing a deep understanding of the elements that define a business.
  • This results in 100+ data points associated with each company, everything from company description, alternative names, tags, business category & industry, office and retail locations, risks, size, classifications, products, certifications, and beyond.

What you‘ll do

  • Veridion is building a video content arm focused on research-driven explainer videos and mini-documentaries in the style of Wendover Productions and Fern. Think clean visual storytelling, dense but accessible narratives, smart use of maps, data visualizations, and motion graphics — all packaged to hold attention and make complex topics click.
  • You will own the visual production pipeline end-to-end: sourcing and creating footage, building motion graphics, assembling narration-driven edits, and delivering polished final cuts that feel like they belong on a top-tier YouTube channel.
  • You’d be working as a close collaborator with one person who drives the creative and visual direction. So, while you won’t be making every decision alone, you do need to be resourceful, proactive, and capable of executing a vision at a high level.

What we value

  • We do remarkable work by building what others call impossible through breakthrough technology.
  • We’re loyal to what we’re building and to the people who build it.
  • We’re persistent in our mission, as long-term impact takes discipline, not luck.

What you embody

  • You do remarkable work through consistency, work ethic and your craft.
  • You’re loyal to the team you belong to and committed to building something that matters.
  • You’re persistent in solving what matters, moving fast so that impact compounds.

What it’s really like to work with us

  • We don’t settle for mediocre results and set our ambition up for the inevitable delayed gratification, as excellence requires significant time and effort.
  • We use the right tool for the job. No workarounds or cutting corners. Breakthrough technology declutters our day to day and gives us the space to channel our efforts on what can’t be compensated for — the best use of our skills and abilities.
  • We make sure there’s a fair exchange between what each of us offers and what we get in return.
  • We’re life-long learners who can’t stop, won’t stop at what they already know, striving to be better and see each other grow.
  • We REALLY dislike and discourage all sides of micromanagement. Everyone here has a strong sense of ownership (we’re like start-ups within a start-up).
  • We know from the get-go that excellence requires discomfort and it’s not going to get easier soon.
  • Our team is based in Sky Tower, Bucharest. Discussions around the office are often hilarious, mind-expanding and quick-witted. Our regular hybrid setup is 2 remote days per week after the trial period, which is fully onsite.

What it should really be like to work with you

  • You’re team-centric, knowing it gets you way further than acting egocentric ever could. You don’t look the other way when it comes to helping your colleagues succeed.
  • You’re humbly aware that real growth means sacrificing the immediate gain in favor of long-term rewards.
  • You demonstrate resilience, especially in front of failure, that is always paired with pioneering work.
  • As a big picture thinker, you’re equally comfortable with zooming in on a granular level, inclined to examine things from different perspectives and question the default.
  • You hold yourself accountable to deliver at your best and are ready to have your ideas challenged anytime. You value two-way feedback as a vital part of further improvement.
  • You get excited when exploring varied thought-provoking topics and feel this kind of conversations are worth having.
  • You see the benefits of face to face interaction, spontaneous brainstorming sessions and close collaboration. You enjoy hybrid work and want to make the most out of connecting with people in your professional life, as well.

Our responsibilities

  • Update you on the progress of our recruitment process.
  • Validate expectations, goals and priorities with you.
  • Provide the tools and resources to help you do your best.
  • Give you the space to try new things out and solve the problems you’re working on your way.
  • Grant you the freedom and trust to make reasoned decisions and own them.
  • Share relevant information and encourage you to be an active part in discussions about what we’re building, how we’re building it and why it’s important.
  • Cultivate a healthy, transparent work environment where you can openly say what’s on your mind.
  • Protect your time from pointless meetings so you can focus on your work without interruption.
  • Listen actively so we can fully understand your perspective.
  • Provide guidance and actionable feedback for your further growth.
  • Celebrate your wins and give recognition for your impact.

Your responsibilities

  • Take scripted, narration-based projects from script to final delivery
  • Source, create, and curate all visual material — stock footage, AI-generated assets (Midjourney, Runway, Sora, etc.), custom graphics, 3D renders
  • Assemble voiceover with supporting visuals (stock footage, screen recordings, AI-generated material, custom graphics)
  • Design and animate 2D motion graphics: maps, diagrams, data callouts, transitions
  • Create original visual assets — illustrations, icons, scene compositions — rather than relying on templates
  • Manage color, pacing, and visual continuity across 10–20 minute episodes
  • Work in a tight feedback loop with your collaborator, who owns the visual direction and final creative calls

Our qualifications

  • Before building Veridion, our 3 co-founders (Sorina, Florin and Mihai) worked at companies that impacted billions of users, having been exposed to diverse areas of technology that span from full stack web development to Big Data and robust Cloud infrastructure, as well as their product and business development proficiency.
  • This broad mix, critical to a true data-driven mindset, has been imprinted in our company’s culture since day one. And it massively steps up our game as engineers.

Your qualifications

  • Experience editing narration-driven, explainer-style video content — not vlogs, not corporate sizzle reels
  • Strong command of After Effects (or equivalent) for motion graphics and visual effects
  • Ability to independently source and create visual material — you’re not waiting for someone to hand you assets
  • Fluency with generative AI tools for image, video, and asset creation, with good judgment about when and how to use them
  • Basic to intermediate 3D skills — ability to create and render simple scenes or environments (Blender, Cinema 4D, or similar)
  • A sharp eye for pacing and storytelling rhythm in long-form content
  • Comfort working with data-heavy visuals: charts, maps, process diagrams
  • Familiarity with Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or a comparable NLE
  • A portfolio that demonstrates clean, information-dense visual work

Bonus Skills

Not required, but will set you apart:

  • Sound design beyond the basics — crafting soundscapes, layering ambient textures, designing transitions and impact sounds
  • Videography — ability to shoot live-action footage when needed (events, B-roll on location)
  • Short-form content — skill in repurposing long-form material or creating original content for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels
  • Social media distribution — hands-on experience posting, scheduling, and optimizing content across TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn; understanding of what drives reach and algorithmic performance

We’re open to candidates from a range of backgrounds — what matters is the quality of your work and your ability to operate independently across the full visual pipeline. Strong fits include:

  • Freelance editors / motion designers who’ve built a client base around explainer, educational, or long-form content — people used to owning projects end-to-end without a large team
  • YouTube channel editors who’ve worked on research-driven or documentary-style channels and understand the pacing, visual language, and audience expectations of that format
  • Agency creatives who’ve produced motion graphics, branded content, or video campaigns and want to move toward more narrative, long-form work
  • Production company backgrounds — editors or post-production generalists comfortable with the full post workflow (commercials, documentaries, corporate video)
  • Independent creators who run or have run their own channel and understand what it takes to produce polished video from script to publish

What we offer

  • The chance to shape an original product in a fast growing company, backed by VC investors
  • A merit-based, no BS, impact-oriented and particularly collaborative work environment.
  • Groundbreaking professional challenges and the autonomy to try stuff for the very first time, no matter how experienced you are
  • Real mentoring, intense brainstorming sessions and well-informed debates guided by a regular & straight-forward feedback philosophy
  • Pioneering work at the forefront of Big Data, Infrastructure and Machine Learning that sometimes means relying on academic papers as our only formal guiding tools in moving onwards
  • An engineering business culture where you speak the same language with your leaders
  • The thrill of being surrounded by extremely smart, yet humble individuals, a stellar international team that will both enable and encourage you to leave your mark
  • Fair compensation, ESOP and upward salary growth based on performance.

What we expect from you

  • High speed and uncompromising quality in your work
  • A growth mindset, able to capitalize on unprecedented contexts through your skills and abilities
  • An appetite to grapple with a variety of technical challenges
  • The ability to quickly and effectively evaluate technical tradeoffs and translate them into relevant scenarios
  • Strong problem solving skills that enhance the way you deal with the tension between brief and shipping
  • Aversion to the idea of any customer or colleague struggling with what you delivered
  • High tolerance for ambiguity, marked by your ambition to push forward with incomplete information
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills for coordinating across teams
  • Passion for data, powered by the drive to learn and master new technologies and techniques (sometimes as soon as they launch)
