Senior Video Editor

We are seeking a Senior Video Editor who can execute high-performing short-form content and paid social creatives across multiple campaigns and content initiatives.

This role requires strong editing fundamentals, modern short-form pacing instincts, and the ability to execute quickly while maintaining strong creative judgment. The ideal candidate understands performance-driven editing, can work independently from briefs, and is comfortable iterating rapidly in fast-moving startup and digital-first environments.

The role will support a mix of paid social creatives, founder-led content, short-form clips, and digital marketing assets tied to AI, automation, startup, and technology-focused audiences.

This is not a traditional long-form or cinematic editing role. Success in this position depends heavily on retention-focused editing, speed, iteration quality, and understanding how modern internet-native content performs across short-form platforms.

• Experience in agency or performance marketing environments

• Motion graphics experience

• Edit short-form paid social creatives and digital content for Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, and similar platforms

• Execute edits from creative briefs with minimal supervision

• Produce multiple variations for testing and iteration

• Support development of new content concepts based on existing footage, trends, and performance patterns

• Identify strong visual references, viral formats, and editing structures relevant to startup, AI, and digital audiences

• Apply direct-response and retention-focused editing principles

• Optimize hooks, pacing, subtitles, visual flow, and CTAs

• Adjust edits based on creative feedback and performance insights

• Maintain editing styles that feel modern, clean, and native to short-form platforms

• Manage multiple editing projects simultaneously

• Maintain organized file structures and editing workflows

• Deliver content quickly within fast-moving production timelines

• Collaborate directly with founder and creative stakeholders on revisions and iteration

• 4+ years of video editing experience

• Strong understanding of short-form and paid social content

• Proficiency in Premiere Pro, CapCut, Final Cut, or similar editing tools

• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision

• Experience editing content for digital-first brands, startups, agencies, or online businesses

• Strong turnaround speed and operational reliability

• Comfortable working in fast-moving remote environments
