Senior Content Producer

We’re looking for a Senior Content Producer to support the production practice within Engine, Code and Theory’s creative production studio. This role sits at the intersection of production, creative, and technology—bridging storytelling, systems, and execution to bring ideas to life across motion, live action, 2D/3D, experiential, and digital or social content.

The Senior Content Producer is both a builder and a connector. They scope, budget, and produce multidisciplinary work, balancing hands-on line production with big-picture operational thinking. They thrive in hybrid environments where traditional craft meets modern systems—where production isn’t just the end of the process, but the engine that drives it.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Lead projects from scoping through delivery across live action, motion, design, post, and experiential.
• Partner closely with Creative, Marcom Production, and Operations to define production approach, budget, and timeline
• Know when to work with direct production partners, but also run point with a tight in-house team
• Work closely with creative teams to bid, award, and execute best-in-class work
• Anticipate challenges and design efficient, scalable solutions for projects of varying complexity
• Set project schedules and manage calendars for highly specialized creative teams, both internal and external
• Work hand-in-hand with design and technology teams to ensure creative ideas are executable, on time, and on budget
• Serve as the production lead on integrated projects, balancing creative ambition with logistical and financial realities
• Deliver mixed-format content across platforms, including live action, animation, and social media executions
• Partner with department heads to ensure alignment on creative quality, resource planning, and delivery
• Apply deep knowledge of live action, post, 2D/3D, and experiential production to elevate creative output
• Act as a creative problem-solver, finding production solutions that protect both the idea and the budget
• Push innovation within formats to deliver breakthrough and memorable creative work
• Maintain high standards of craft, storytelling, and operational discipline across all workstreams
• Develop accurate budgets and schedules using industry-standard methodologies and agency-specific models
• Manage all production phases: pre-production planning, on-set execution, post, and delivery
• Oversee cost tracking and reconciliations in partnership with Finance and Operations
• Build and maintain scalable workflows across modern platforms such as Figma, and Adobe Creative Suite to ensure cross-disciplinary visibility and collaboration
• Lead the integration of AI-enabled tools and processes into Engine’s production pipeline to enhance visualization, prototyping, and content creation
• Define standards and best practices for AI-assisted production, ensuring ethical use, quality control, and brand alignment
• Collaborate with Engine’s Tech Ops and Creative teams to identify and pilot new tools that improve efficiency and creative iteration
• Stay informed on evolving production technologies and bring forward recommendations that strengthen Engine’s operational infrastructure
• Help refine Engine’s production systems, toolkits, and documentation for consistent quality and scalability
• Contribute to Engine’s operational frameworks and resource models
• Serve as an internal advocate for the value of Engine’s multidisciplinary production model—educating teams and showcasing success stories

WHAT YOU’LL NEED 

• Proven ability to manage complex, multi-phase projects across multiple disciplines and platforms
• Strong line production expertise, with deep understanding of budgeting, scheduling, bidding, and vendor management
• Demonstrated experience building or optimizing workflows across tools like Figma, and Adobe Creative Suite
• Required fluency in AI-enabled production tools, aggregators, and practices
• Experience producing complex film, video, and mixed-format content
• Experience problem-solving around challenging schedules and comfort with agile, fast-moving production environments
• Resilient, positive, and solutions-oriented—able to bring calm and clarity to dynamic projects
• Experience collaborating with motion, design, and creative teams in a fast-paced agency or studio environment
• Strong communication, organization, and leadership skills—comfortable guiding teams and stakeholders through ambiguity
• A proactive problem-solver with creative intuition, operational rigor, and an ability to see the big picture
