• We’re agog. That’s not just our name. It’s how we feel about a whole new form of communications that is quickly emerging. • Agog: The Immersive Media Institute is helping creators and nonprofit leaders harness the power of extended reality (XR) technologies, like virtual reality and augmented reality, to open new avenues for empathy, understanding, and activism. • We believe these new tools can help put humanity on a trajectory to a better future. • Our initial areas of focus include social justice and equity; high-impact storytelling; research, education, and outreach; and policy and ethics. • Do you thrive in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment? Are you passionate about using technology for social good, and energized by building relationships and helping others do the same? • Agog is seeking an experienced XR producer to join our team. • We’re looking for a creative, self-directed, and experienced XR producer with a passion for social impact to serve as our Head of Production, shaping and leading our work to help nonprofits and other social change leaders understand the potential of XR and to prototype and experiment with XR storytelling to spur change in the world. • U.S.-based remote role with a strong preference for candidates based in Seattle, LA, or the Bay Area.

Confidence in presenting to diverse audiences and representing the organization. • Passion for Social Impact: Demonstrated commitment to ethical storytelling practices. Experience working on Agog’s areas of focus—climate justice, food justice, Indigenous knowledge, and human rights––preferred but not required. • Travel Flexibility: Ability to travel domestically and internationally as needed.
