Video Editor

You make things watchable and you make volume possible. Half this job is cutting hero content to a very high standard. The other half — the half that matters more — is building the template and preset system that lets the team publish 5x what one editor could cut by hand. What you'll do Cut hero content: the concepts the manager is betting on, edited to a standard that competes with full-time creators Build and maintain the template library — hook openers, caption styles, transition packs, platform presets — so the creator can self-serve variants without you touching every file Own the pacing, cuts, sound design, captions, and motion that turn raw footage into retention Version every hero concept into platform-native cuts: aspect ratio, hook rewrite, length, caption style per platform Automate what can be automated — batch captioning, auto-reframe, preset-driven exports Maintain asset organization, file naming, and archive so nothing gets remade twice Feed the manager honest data on what's actually taking time, so briefs stay realistic Required qualifications 4+ years editing short-form video with proven viral output — show us the videos and the view counts Expert in at least one professional suite (Premiere, DaVinci, After Effects) plus fast tools (CapCut Pro) Motion graphics and sound design capability — not just cuts Demonstrated systems thinking. You've built template/preset libraries before and can describe them Fluent with AI editing tooling and opinionated about which are worth paying for You understand why an edit retains — you can explain the choice behind a cut, not just make it Machine that can render at volume without dying Nice to have Experience editing for a channel you also had a stake in growing Automation/scripting experience (batch processing, API-driven workflows) Thumbnail and cover design Not a fit if You need to touch every single export personally You've only ever done client-service editing to spec You can't explain what makes an edit retain vs. just look nice BONUS OPPORTUNITY: Structure: 85% base / 15% variable. Base $1,400–1,600, realistic total $1,600–2,100. Trigger Payout Team publishes 40+ assets/day sustained for a month $200 Team publishes 60+ assets/day sustained $400 Each new template pack shipped that the creator adopts $75 Quarterly: avg. retention rate across all published video improves vs. prior quarter $500
