About Mission Bit

Mission Bit equips youth with hands-on computer science and AI education that builds confidence, technical skills, and pathways to meaningful careers in technology. Our brand is built on a deep passion for empowering young innovators who reflect our diversity to become leaders of the global technology revolution, developing solutions that serve our whole community.

We are looking for a creative individual who views the various parameters of a live event not as constraints, but rather as a palette to work with. This professional should possess the skills to capture brand photography suitable for social media, marketing materials, and other company communications. Ideally, we are seeking a candidate who is eager to add 8-10 events to their calendar each year. All events are around the Bay Area, primarily in San Francisco. Events can range from field trips to student showcases to formal gala fundraisers.

• Photograph event highlights, guest interactions, speakers, and candid atmosphere in a myriad of indoor settings, typically 1 to 5 hours per event.
• Maintain the quality and creativity of work, coupled with an easygoing, affable demeanor around guests, partners, and our high school-aged students.
• Follow the event shot list and align with the schedule. Ensure all notes and schedules needed are received and thoroughly reviewed ahead of time for your assigned shoots.
• Back up and upload edited images to Mission Bit's Google Photos folder promptly, following deadlines and needs of the organization. You recognize the importance and sensitivity of the data.

• Events will be assigned 1-4 months in advance, so you'll know ahead of time if you have other commitments.
• You have full control over your availability, so you can book other gigs or even hold a full-time job.
• Our red line: Once you are assigned an event, you are responsible for it. If another opportunity comes up that you wish to pursue instead, you are responsible for connecting with the team to discuss alternatives.

Requirements

We’d love to hear from you if you…

• Have 1-3 years of experience as an event photographer
• Have some knowledge of photo editing softwares
• Have afternoon, evening, and weekend availability, as events may happen after business hours, Fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays
• Have reliable transportation for events all around the Bay Area
• Are able to be on your feet for 1-5 hours
• Are able to maintain an accurate availability calendar up to 6 months out
