About the Company & Role

We are seeking an experienced Short Form Editor to create and publish the day-to-day short-form content for 100 Thieves Roobet Counter-Strike. This role focuses on editing engaging short-form content for platforms such as TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts to build a robust content pipeline and grow our online presence.

Responsibilities

• Edit and publish high-volume, high-quality short-form content for gaming social channels, optimized per platform (TikTok, IG Reels, YouTube Shorts, and X).

• Turn raw footage, in-game clips, POVs, behind-the-scenes, player interviews, and LAN/travel b-roll into polished, on-brand edits with tight pacing, transitions, sound design, and motion graphics.

• Develop and execute social media plans/schedules for our gaming social accounts.

• Build a social content pipeline, primarily short-form content on TikTok, IG Reels, and other channels.
