[Hiring] Scriptwriter @Rythm Health

Role Description

We’re looking for a Scriptwriter to turn ideas into commercials, social videos, and recurring series for Rythm—and lead the process of bringing those scripts to life.

• Understand the creative vision, develop concepts, and write scenes that are ready to shoot.
• Build a story through dialogue and visuals, develop ideas from the team, and contribute your own.
• Develop the script and scene requirements that guide decisions about locations, talent, props, and how we organize the shoot.
• Coordinate preparation with our videographer and editor and lead the shoot on set.
• Learn Rythm inside and out: our product, our customers, and how we talk about health.
• Own scripts from concept through approval and carry that ownership into shoot preparation and on-set execution.
• Value clear direction, practical planning, and the ability to think on your feet.

Qualifications

• Experience writing commercials, branded content, or social video.
• A portfolio of scripts and finished videos, with a clear explanation of your contribution.
• Experience writing complete scenes, with a strong sense of character, dialogue, pacing, and visual storytelling.
• A feel for casual, conversational content and the judgment to keep a script from sounding too polished, forced, or overly rehearsed.
• The ability to make product messaging interesting and easy to understand.
• The ability to develop both your own ideas and ideas that start with someone else.
• Experience taking a script into production, including identifying what’s needed and helping organize the shoot.
• Confidence leading on set, giving clear direction to talent, and coordinating with crew to keep things moving.
• An understanding of how scripts translate into filming and editing.
• Practical judgment about when to add detail, when to simplify, and how to adapt when something changes.
• A willingness to stay hands-on and help the team get the work done.
• Comfort receiving feedback, revising your work, and staying aligned with an established creative vision and brand voice.
• Curiosity and a willingness to build deep knowledge of our company and customers.
• Follow-through and the ability to manage multiple scripts, shoot preparations, and deadlines.

Requirements

• Turn ideas into scripts from team conversations, rough concepts, and company priorities.
• Pitch commercials, scenes, hooks, and recurring social formats that fit Rythm.
• Create settings, characters, actions, dialogue, and visual moments that turn a concept into something the team can film.
• Build setups, reveals, comedic beats, or emotional moments that hold attention and move the story forward.
• Develop natural dialogue, voiceover, and on-screen text, with product messaging that fits the story.
• Understand the intended direction, ask good questions, and incorporate feedback while contributing your own point of view.
• Move scripts from first draft through revisions and approval, keeping them ready in time to guide shoot planning.
• Identify the locations, talent, props, and essential action each scene needs, then coordinate with the team to turn those requirements into a practical shoot plan.
• Make sure scripts, scene breakdowns, and production needs are clear and organized.
• Guide talent through the scenes, keep the shoot moving through the plan, and work with our videographer.
• Adjust dialogue, simplify a scene, or work around production constraints while preserving the idea.
• Collaborate with production and post-production to ensure the footage supports the finished video.
• Review the videos and relevant performance feedback, then apply those lessons to future scripts.

Benefits

• A highly competitive base salary.
• Meaningful equity aligned with the scope and impact of your role.
• A monthly Rythm membership with full access to at-home blood testing and personalized health insights.
• High ownership and visibility from day one, with the ability to make a meaningful impact.
• The chance to help shape the future of personalized health and preventative care.
• Flexible, remote-first work environment.
• A generous paid time off policy.
• 401(k).
• Multiple healthcare plan options, with select plans fully covered by Rythm.
• A small, collaborative, mission-driven team that moves quickly and values great ideas regardless of title.
