About the role
- High-volume, high-quality editing
- Produce videos optimized for mobile-first, sound-on and sound-off viewing (9:16, 4:5, 1:1, etc.)
- Rapidly turn live streams, gameplay, product reveals, sponsor moments, and creator collaborations into short-form highlights and longer-form cutdowns when needed.
- Partner closely with the Content, Insights & Planning Manager to test hooks, intros, formats, captions, and thumbnails; use performance data to decide which edits to scale, tweak, or kill.
- Stay deeply plugged into gaming culture, memes, slang, platform-native humor, and niche sub-communities.
Requirements
- Extensive experience editing social-first content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, X/Twitter, Facebook, and similar platforms, with a portfolio that proves it.
- Deep proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro (or equivalent) and strong skills in After Effects/motion graphics, basic color correction, and audio mixing.
- Demonstrated ability to work fast at scale—delivering multiple strong edits per week without losing narrative clarity or brand consistency.
- Experience with captioning, subtitles, sound design, and accessibility best practices across platforms.
