About the role

Perplexity is seeking a Senior Cinematographer to define and execute its visual language on film. You will collaborate with leadership to craft lighting, camera movement, and color, then lead crews on a range of branded content. The role is hands-on, with ownership from concept through delivery, including contributing to an in-house studio. You bring 6+ years of cinematography or DP work, a standout reel, deep lighting and lens knowledge, and a collaborative spirit.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
