The Role
We are building a next-generation video editing team focused on speed, innovation, and technical experimentation. This role is for editors who don’t just execute workflows — they rethink them.
You will be part of a small, elite, full-time team designed to operate at 150%+ the output of a traditional editor, while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of how modern video editing is done using AI, automation, scripting, and emerging technologies.
This is not a traditional editing role.
It is 75% production editing, 25% R&D, and 100% forward-looking.

What You’ll Do
- Edit high volumes of short-form and long-form video with exceptional speed and quality
- Create mobile-first, platform-native content (TikTok, Shorts, Reels, etc.) alongside traditional formats
- Pull raw footage directly from internal servers and optimize workflows around large media files
- Experiment aggressively with:
- AI-powered editing tools
- Automation, scripting, and templates
- LLMs, prompt-based workflows, and machine-learning-assisted editing
- Build, test, and document new editing systems that improve:
- Velocity
- Quality
- Scalability
- Cost efficiency
- Present new tools, techniques, and workflows to the broader editing organization
- Help set new norms for how editing is done company-wide
- Absorb a significant volume of edits currently handled externally, helping convert variable costs into a high-performance internal team
- Travel occasionally to:
- Industry events
- Local meetups
- Technology conferences
- Innovation-focused gatherings

Who This Is For
This role is for editors who:
- Love video editing and love technology
- Actively follow advances in AI, automation, and creative tooling
- Are comfortable with ambiguity, experimentation, and risk-taking
- Prefer building new systems over preserving old ones
- Challenge the status quo rather than defaulting to “how it’s always been done”
- Enjoy learning new tools faster than others and proving their value through output
- Want to demonstrate measurable gains in speed, efficiency, and innovation
- Are excited to help train and influence other editors by example
If you already experiment with AI tools, scripting, automation, or unconventional editing workflows — and can show it — you’ll be at home here.

What Success Looks Like
- Sustained output well above traditional editing benchmarks
- Clear demonstrations of faster workflows through technology
- Adoption of your innovations across the editing team
- Tangible improvements in speed, quality, and scalability
- Documented systems, templates, and processes others can use
In addition to base compensation, performance incentives are tied directly to innovation, speed improvements, and successful adoption of new technologies.
