Full job description

About the role

Imagine stepping into hangars, test fields, and production floors where the future of flight is being built in real time, capturing the moments that define it. As Photographer and Videographer at Destinus, this role turns complex engineering, high-speed testing, and breakthrough technology into powerful visual stories. From FPV drone footage slicing through the sky to detailed shots of precision manufacturing, every frame helps translate innovation into something the world can see, understand, and feel.

At Destinus, we are revolutionizing the defense industry with cutting-edge Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Our innovative technologies are designed to meet the unique demands of modern defense operations, delivering unparalleled speed, precision, and cost effectiveness. Destinus partners with government agencies and defense organizations worldwide to provide advanced solutions for mission-critical operations, enabling a new era of efficiency and technological superiority. Join us in shaping the future of defense with groundbreaking aerospace innovations.

What You´ll Do

Field Production & Travel

Travel to assigned Destinus locations and external events with camera and drone equipment (company-provided or personal) to shoot photo and video content.
Capture high-quality footage of flight tests, production environments, product demos, and corporate events.
Operate FPV drone systems to produce dynamic, immersive aerial footage in complex operational environments.
Coordinate on-site with participating teams to align on task statements, timing, and logistics of each shoot.

Asset Management & Storage

Upload raw footage and photographs to the designated storage system promptly after each assignment.
Maintain and organize the company’s video and photo asset library, ensuring files are correctly labelled, versioned, and accessible to stakeholders.
Own the integrity and structure of the visual asset repository as the single point of accountability.

Project Coordination & Stakeholder Management

Receive and triage incoming shoot requests from various internal stakeholders.
Maintain own project management of assignments, including scheduling, prioritisation, and progress tracking.
Align with the Line Manager on priorities and capacity planning.
Coordinate with the travel team on logistics (flights, accommodation, transport).
Align with the marketing team on goals, OKRs, and content strategy for each assignment.

Compliance & Operational Readiness

Proactively identify and obtain all required permits, customs clearances, security checks, and drone flight permissions ahead of each assignment.
Ensure all documentation and authorisations are in place before the start of on-site operations.
Coordinate with internal support functions as needed but bear personal responsibility for preparedness.

Post-Production & Creative Collaboration

Collaborate with external or internal video production teams when footage is used in larger productions; provide source material, context, and hands-on support as required.
For smaller-scale deliverables (social media videos, photo galleries, quick-turnaround content), independently perform editing, colour correction, and final delivery.
Align with designers and the Brand Director on visual requirements, look and feel, and brand consistency for all self-produced outputs.
Submit all self-produced deliverables through the applicable review and approval process before publication.

Requirements

What You’ll Need

Strong experience in photography and videography in dynamic environments such as industrial, aerospace, or technology settings
Hands-on expertise with professional camera equipment, lighting setups, and audio capture
Proven ability to operate FPV drone systems and capture high-speed aerial footage safely and creatively
Solid skills in post-production tools such as Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Lightroom, or similar
Experience managing digital assets, organizing large volumes of content, and maintaining structured libraries
Ability to plan shoots, coordinate with multiple teams, and adapt quickly to changing environments and schedules
Willingness to travel frequently across Europe and work on-site in production and testing environments
A sharp eye for detail, composition, and visual storytelling that aligns with brand identity

Who You Are

You thrive in fast-moving environments where no two days look the same and the action never really stops

Curiosity drives everything, from understanding complex technologies to finding the best angle to capture them

You combine creativity with precision, balancing artistic vision with technical accuracy

Autonomy feels natural, taking ownership of projects from concept to final delivery without waiting for direction

Collaboration comes easy, working closely with engineers, operators, and commercial teams to bring stories to life

When challenges appear, you adapt fast, finding solutions on the go and keeping the momentum alive
