About us

About the Role

What you'll do

Short-form editing (TikTok, Reels, Shorts, Facebook)

• Edit a high volume of vertical short-form videos (roughly 30–90 seconds) built to stop the scroll in the first 1–3 seconds.

• Cut for each platform's native style: pacing, captions, safe zones, aspect ratios, trending audio and formats.

• Turn raw footage, founder content, creator clips and transformation shoots into multiple hook and format variations per concept.

• Repurpose long-form episodes into clips, carousels-to-video and cutdowns without losing the story.

Long-form editing (YouTube and Facebook)

• Edit 8–30+ minute YouTube videos with strong story structure, retention-driven pacing, B-roll, music and sound design.

• Build intros, chapter breaks, lower thirds and end screens that keep viewers watching.

• Collaborate on thumbnails and titles with an eye on click-through and retention.

Motion graphics and AI generation

• Create motion graphics, animated text, transitions and branded templates in After Effects.

• Stay current on new AI video tools and pitch ways to use them to ship faster or try new formats.

Workflow and ownership

• Own projects from brief to delivery: organize footage, edit, self-QA, export platform-ready files and hand off on time.

• Maintain and improve our editing systems: project templates, file naming, folder structures, presets, LUTs, caption styles and export settings.

• Track work in our project management tool (ClickUp), updating status as each piece moves through the pipeline.

• Turn around revisions quickly and fold feedback into future edits without being told twice.

How we work

• Fully remote, async-first. Briefs, footage and feedback live in shared drives, Frame.io and ClickUp, so work keeps moving across time zones.

• Daily overlap. A short daily check-in during your overlap window with Pacific Time, plus written updates on what shipped and what's blocked.

• Turnaround expectations. Short-form edits typically delivered within 24 hours of brief; revisions within one business day; long-form on an agreed schedule.

• Volume. Expect a steady weekly output across short- and long-form. [15–25 short-form + 1–2 long-form per week.]

Requirements

What you bring

Must-haves

• 3+ years of professional video editing, with a portfolio showing both short-form and long-form work.

• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects..

• Hands-on experience generating video with Higgsfield AI, with examples of AI-generated or AI-assisted footage used in finished edits.

• Proven experience editing for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and a clear understanding of how each platform's content differs.

• A fast, repeatable workflow: you can show how you organize projects, use templates and presets, and ship multiple finished pieces per day.

• Strong instinct for hooks, pacing, story and sound; you know why one edit holds attention and another doesn't.

• Clear written English for async communication, briefs and feedback.

• Reliable high-speed internet, a capable editing machine and your own Adobe Creative Cloud license.

• At least 4 hours of daily overlap with Pacific Time (PT) for check-ins and fast revisions.

Nice-to-haves

• Experience with other AI tools (Runway, Kling, Veo, ElevenLabs, CapCut AI features, Topaz).

• Experience with brand, DTC, beauty, wellness or transformation/before-and-after content.

• Thumbnail design skills for YouTube.

• Familiarity with DaVinci Resolve for color grading.

• Comfort reading organic analytics (retention curves, watch time, saves, shares) and editing toward them.

• Experience with Frame.io and ClickUp or similar review and project tools.

• Use Higgsfield AI to generate and extend shots, B-roll, product visuals, scene transitions and stylized effects that would be slow or costly to film.

• Blend AI-generated assets seamlessly with live footage so the final piece feels on-brand, not obviously synthetic.
