This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for an AI Automation Specialist for Podcast Production (Longform, Shorts, Social Media) based in Australia.
We are looking for an AI Automation Specialist to transform podcast production and content distribution through intelligent, scalable workflows.
Rather than manually editing episodes or creating individual posts, you will design systems that automate these processes using AI.
Your scope will cover long-form video and audio, trailers, short-form clips, subtitles, thumbnails, social media content, analytics, and more.
You will assess existing production processes, identify opportunities for improvement, and implement practical automation solutions.
Working directly with the podcast host, you will have considerable freedom to select tools and shape the technical approach.
Your work will help increase content output, improve efficiency, and reduce the time spent on repetitive production tasks.
This freelance opportunity is ideal for someone who combines technical automation expertise with a strong understanding of podcasting and digital content.
As an AI Automation Specialist, you will evaluate existing content workflows and build reliable systems that streamline podcast production and distribution. Your main responsibilities will include:
Reviewing existing podcast episodes, short-form videos, and social media content to identify opportunities for improvement.
Recommending AI-powered solutions to automate long-form editing, trailer creation, short-form clips, subtitles, thumbnails, social media posts, and performance reporting.
Designing and implementing end-to-end workflows that process video, audio, and text with minimal manual intervention.
Integrating AI tools, APIs, automation platforms, and custom scripts to create efficient production pipelines.
Testing and refining workflows using real podcast episodes to ensure consistent output quality.
Documenting and handing over completed systems so they can operate independently without ongoing support.
Monitoring results and measuring improvements through metrics such as views, watch time, and hours saved.
Staying informed about emerging AI tools and identifying opportunities to improve the overall content production process.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on automation professional who knows how to build AI-powered systems rather than simply use individual AI tools. The following experience and skills are expected:
Proven experience designing and implementing AI-powered automation workflows.
Practical experience automating video, audio, or text processing with minimal manual intervention.
Familiarity with APIs, n8n, Make, custom scripts, or comparable automation technologies.
Strong knowledge of current AI tools for video and audio production, including the ability to assess their practical capabilities and limitations.
Understanding of podcast production and the characteristics of engaging short-form content.
Interest in financial markets and trading, or willingness to develop knowledge of these topics.
Active use of AI features and capabilities across professional tools and workflows.
Strong problem-solving skills, initiative, and the ability to work independently.
Clear communication skills and the ability to explain technical solutions and recommendations.
Benefits
Flexible freelance compensation, with the opportunity to propose a suitable model, such as per project, monthly, or another arrangement.
Freedom to choose the tools and technical approach used to build automation workflows.
Direct collaboration with the podcast host and short communication channels.
Opportunity to take ownership of automation projects and see their impact on a real content operation.
