  • Add and QC captions across all video content

  • Provide post-production services including color correction, audio cleanup, light mixing, media management (transcoding, asset curation), and platform deliveries

  • Receive and prioritize inbound video editing requests, clarifying requirements, specs, and deadlines with each requester

  • Deliver projects on quick turnaround timelines while maintaining high technical quality

  • Perform quality control checks before publishing or delivering any video content

  • Maintain clear, consistent communication to support a collaborative and creative work environment

Requirements

  • 3-5 years of proven video editing experience for social and digital platforms

  • Strong proficiency with Adobe Premiere Pro, with a working knowledge of video and audio encoding, standards, and formats

  • Experience with structured media file management using platforms like Iconik, LucidLink, Frame.io, Google Drive, or Dropbox

  • Experience with project management tools like ClickUp

  • Proficiency in animation and motion graphics using After Effects, Motion, or similar tools

  • Experience formatting and troubleshooting video assets for social media platforms

  • Experience in color correction for all video types

  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal

  • Fast and eager learner with critical thinking, problem-solving, time management, and multitasking skills

  • Deep understanding of digital trends, with a point of view on what will engage and grow audiences

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in other areas of video production, including storyboarding, producing, and GFX

  • Basic audio and sound mixing knowledge

  • Familiarity with special effects, 3D, and compositing 

$85,000 - $100,000 a year
