What You'll Be Doing:

  • Edit high-volume short-form videos (TikToks, Reels, YouTube Shorts, ads, promos) with quick turnarounds
  • Use provided footage, stock assets, and b-roll to create compelling and dynamic edits
  • Nail timing, rhythm, and pacing to boost engagement and watch time
  • Revise and iterate based on feedback—fast
  • Keep content fresh while staying on-brand
  • Suggest creative ideas for transitions, SFX, or music when appropriate



Requirements

What We're Looking For:

  • Proven experience editing fast-paced, high-energy short-form content (portfolio required)
  • Efficiency and speed – able to edit 5–7 videos per week without sacrificing quality
  • A sharp instinct for cuts, pacing, and storytelling
  • Proficiency in Premiere Pro (or similar tools like Final Cut or DaVinci Resolve)
  • Able to work independently with minimal hand-holding
  • Strong understanding of visual flow and engagement tactics

Bonus Skills (Nice to Have):

  • Motion graphics skills (After Effects or similar)
  • Color correction or sound design experience
  • Familiarity with social trends and formats on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts
  • Background in advertising, agency work, or branded content
  • Great taste in music/SFX selection

Why Join Us?

  • Work on a wide variety of fast-moving, high-impact projects
  • Flexible hours – work when you want, just meet deadlines
  • Opportunity for ongoing projects and long-term collaboration
