About the Role
We’re hiring a Video Editor for long and short-form content to work remotely with a performance marketing agency that creates content for brands across TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.
You’ll turn founder content, creator clips and transformation shoots into scroll-stopping short-form videos and retention-driven YouTube episodes, owning each project from brief to delivery and using AI tools like Higgsfield AI to ship faster.
The team is fully remote and async-first, working in Frame.io, ClickUp and shared drives, with a short daily check-in during Pacific Time. Expect around 15–25 short-form videos and 1–2 long-form videos per week, with short-form delivered within 24 hours of the brief.
Job Responsibilities
- Short-form: Edit 30–90 second vertical videos for TikTok, Reels, Shorts and Facebook that hook viewers in the first 1–3 seconds, with multiple hook and format variations per concept.
- Long-form: Edit 8–30+ minute YouTube videos with strong story structure, retention-driven pacing, B-roll, music and sound design, and repurpose them into short clips.
- Motion graphics and AI: Create motion graphics, animated text and transitions in After Effects, and use Higgsfield AI to generate shots, B-roll and effects that blend seamlessly with live footage.
- Workflow: Keep projects, templates and files organized, track work in ClickUp and turn revisions around within one business day.
Requirements
- 3+ years of professional video editing, with a portfolio showing both short-form and long-form work.
- Advanced Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects skills.
- Your own Adobe Creative Cloud license (required): You must have and pay for your own active Adobe Creative Cloud subscription.
- Your own equipment: A capable editing setup and reliable high-speed internet. AI tool access is provided as needed.
- Hands-on Higgsfield AI experience, with examples used in finished edits.
- Proven experience editing for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.
- A fast, repeatable workflow and a strong instinct for hooks, pacing, story and sound.
- Clear written English.
- At least 4 hours of daily overlap with Pacific Time.
Nice to Have
- Experience with other AI tools (Runway, Kling, Veo, ElevenLabs, Topaz).
- DTC, beauty, wellness or transformation content experience.
- Agency experience or editing for multiple brands.
- YouTube thumbnail design, DaVinci Resolve color grading or reading retention analytics.
Benefits
- Competitive pay of $2,000–$2,500 USD per month. Where you land depends on your experience and portfolio.
- Full-time independent contractor role, around 40 hours per week.
- 100% remote work.
- Variety of work across multiple brands.
