We’re looking for a creative, detail-oriented Video Editor to lead post-production on short and long-form content. The ideal candidate brings a strong creative eye and knows how to elevate raw footage into visually striking, story-driven video. This is a project-based, contract role.

• Add motion graphics, text overlays, and on-screen typography in a visually striking, balanced way
• Color grade and audio-balance for a cohesive, premium feel across every deliverable
• Write short, engaging captions or on-screen copy that complement the visual tone
• Incorporate feedback quickly across revision rounds and maintain brand consistency
• Be available for quick-turnaround edits

Ideal Candidate:

• Strong instincts for pacing, composition, color, and typography in video
• Proficient in Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, or CapCut Pro
• Comfortable experimenting with AI video and image tools
• Skilled at sound design and music selection that elevates the cut
• Excellent communication and time management — responsive, reliable, flexible under tight deadlines
• Portfolio or reel demonstrating short and long-form video editing work
