Video Editor – AI-Driven Short-Form Content ( Full time, remote)

Role Overview
The Video Editor will create high-volume, short-form videos for social media, inspired by viral pages and YouTube channels, for an AI-content brand that already has strong early traction. The role is hands-on with AI and modern video tools, with a clear production target.

Key Responsibilities

• Create 8–10 short-form videos per day (Reels/Shorts/TikTok-style), targeting ~300 videos per month.
• Study and replicate styles from viral pages and YouTube channels while adapting them to the brand voice and audience.
• Use AI tools plus standard video editing software (Google, Microsoft, and other third‑party tools) to streamline editing and asset generation.
• Edit and refine AI-generated visuals, stock footage, and other assets into engaging, platform-native videos.
• Optimize content for different platforms (IG, Facebook, YouTube Shorts, etc.) including aspect ratios, hooks, captions, and pacing.
• Collaborate with the founder/lead to iterate on formats, test new ideas, and continuously improve performance.
• Maintain an organized asset library and basic project management hygiene for smooth scaling as more editors join.

Required Skills & Experience

• 1-2 years of professional experience as a video editor, preferably with short-form, social-first content.
• Strong command of at least one major editing tool (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, etc.) plus openness to using AI tools from multiple providers (Google, Microsoft, Chinese tools, etc.).
• Demonstrated portfolio of high-engagement short videos (Reels/Shorts/TikTok) showing sense of pacing, storytelling, and hooks.
• Comfort working with AI tools for visuals, captions, or automation and willingness to monitor and experiment with new tools regularly.
• Ability to work independently for 4–6 hours per day and consistently hit daily/weekly production targets.
• Good understanding of social media trends, what makes content “viral,” and how to adapt ideas quickly.

Nice-to-Have

• Experience working with creators, agencies, or performance marketing teams on content at scale.
• Basic knowledge of automation workflows (APIs, no-code tools, etc.) and interest in helping refine content processes.
• Familiarity with engagement mechanics (hooks, CTAs, retention tactics) and basic analytics to learn from performance.
