Job description

Video Editor (Social Media + Marketing Content) - Remote
Position Type: Full-Time, Remote
Working Hours: U.S. Business Hours (flexible for deadlines & launches)
About the Role
We're hiring a Video Editor to create high-performing, engaging video content across social media, marketing, and training.
This is not just editing - this is storytelling + performance.
You'll take raw footage and turn it into:
  • Scroll-stopping short-form videos
  • Clean, professional long-form content
  • Conversion-driven marketing assets

If you understand pacing, hooks, and retention, you'll do well here.
What You'll Own
Editing & Storytelling (Core Focus)
  • Edit videos using:
    • Adobe Premiere Pro
    • Final Cut Pro
    • DaVinci Resolve
  • Turn raw footage into:
    • Short-form (Reels, TikTok, Shorts)
    • Long-form (YouTube, training, explainers)
  • Optimize pacing, cuts, and structure for engagement + retention

Graphics, Motion & Visual Enhancements
  • Add:
    • Titles
    • Lower thirds
    • Motion graphics
  • Use tools like:
    • Adobe After Effects
    • Canva
  • Maintain strong brand consistency across videos

Audio & Color Quality
  • Clean and balance audio:
    • Dialogue clarity
    • Noise reduction
    • Leveling
  • Add music + SFX (licensed properly)
  • Perform color correction & grading for a consistent look

Multi-Platform Optimization
  • Export for:
    • YouTube
    • TikTok
    • Instagram
    • LinkedIn
  • Handle:
    • Different aspect ratios (9:16, 1:1, 16:9)
    • Compression, codecs, file size optimization

Collaboration & Feedback
  • Work with:
    • Marketing teams
    • Creative directors
  • Manage feedback using:
    • Frame.io
  • Iterate quickly (goal: ≤ 2 revision rounds)

Performance-Driven Editing
  • Monitor:
    • Watch time
    • Engagement
    • CTR
  • Improve edits based on what actually performs

What Makes You a Strong Fit
  • You understand hooks, retention, and storytelling
  • You can edit both:
    • Fast-paced social content
    • Clean corporate videos
  • You don't just edit - you improve performance
  • You're fast, organized, and reliable

Required Experience & Skills
  • 2+ years of professional video editing experience
  • Strong proficiency in:
    • Adobe Premiere Pro / Final Cut Pro / DaVinci Resolve
  • Experience with:
    • Audio syncing & cleanup
    • Color correction
    • Social media exports
  • Ability to meet deadlines consistently

Nice to Have (High-Quality Candidates)
  • Motion graphics using After Effects
  • Experience editing:
    • Paid ads
    • Brand storytelling content
  • Understanding of:
    • Engagement metrics
    • Content performance
  • Background in:
    • SaaS
    • Agencies
    • E-commerce

What a Typical Day Looks Like
  • Organize and prep raw footage
  • Edit videos with strong pacing and storytelling
  • Add graphics, music, and polish
  • Export multiple platform versions
  • Collaborate on feedback and revisions
  • Track and archive projects properly

In short: you turn raw footage into content people actually watch.
Key Metrics (KPIs)
  • 100% on-time delivery
  • ≤ 2 revision cycles per video
  • Improved engagement (watch time, retention, CTR)
  • Consistent brand quality
  • Clean and organized project files

Interview Process
  • Initial Phone Screen
  • Recruiter Interview
  • Practical Task (Edit a 60-second video)
  • Client Interview
  • Offer & Onboarding

Why This Role Stands Out
  • Work on content that actually performs
  • Ownership over editing output
  • Exposure to marketing + growth teams
  • Opportunity to grow into:
    • Senior Video Editor
    • Content Lead
    • Creative Strategist

Apply Now
If you:
  • Know how to hook attention in the first 3 seconds
  • Care about pacing, not just cuts
  • Can turn average footage into great content

This role is a strong fit.
