Job description

About the Job

We’re looking for a Social Video Editor / Motion Graphics Artist who lives inside a timeline, knows a great hook when they see one, and thrives on the challenge of making content that stops the scroll.

If you’re passionate about short-form social content, have a sharp eye for pacing, and believe that testing variations is just as important as the edit itself—keep reading.

What You’ll Do:

  • Edit and deliver high-quality short-form social videos at speed—because testing content means producing options, not just one cut
  • Create multiple variations of edits (different hooks, pacing, lengths) to support performance testing and internal creative reviews
  • Develop motion graphics that elevate content and feel native to the platform—not like a slideshow
  • Mix music, add sound effects, and handle audio in a way that makes people want to keep watching
  • Apply color correction and grading to ensure visual consistency and quality across deliverables
  • Support our photography and videography team by editing the content they capture—social posts, brand content, and beyond
  • Assist with ad production and web video projects as brand needs arise
  • Format and optimize content for every platform and aspect ratio—Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and wherever else we show up
  • Stay current on trends and platform behavior so our content always feels timely and relevant
  • Juggle multiple projects and deadlines without losing quality or momentum

What You Bring:

  • 1–3 years of video editing experience, with a strong focus on social and short-form content
  • Solid skills in Adobe After Effects and the broader Adobe suite (Premiere Pro, Audition, etc.)
  • A real understanding of what makes social content perform—hooks, pacing, variation—and how to test it
  • Experience with music mixing and sound design: you know how audio shapes a viewer’s experience
  • Working knowledge of color correction and grading
  • Comfortable taking a project from raw footage to final deliverable independently
  • Strong attention to detail—one frame off is still off
  • Good communicator who can take direction and give clear creative feedback
  • Experience creating content for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and similar platforms
  • Comfortable collaborating across teams—whether that’s photo/video, brand, or 3D
