Hire Overseas
Role Description We're looking for a Video Editor to own short-form content production for one of the largest content creators in the vintage clothing space. You will take pre-selected moments from long-form YouTube videos and turn them into polished, highly engaging vertical videos optimized for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. This is not a clip-finding role. The moments will be identified for you. Your job is to bring them to life with strong pacing, purposeful sound design, captions, supporting visuals, and the editorial instincts that make people watch to the end. You will work in parallel with the Lead Editor so that short-form and long-form content are ready around the same time. If you genuinely enjoy watching and analyzing content, understand why videos hold attention, and can consistently deliver polished edits that match an established style, this role is a strong fit. Qualifications - Strong proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro with a demonstrated track record of editing short-form vertical content - Experience editing for TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube Shorts with a clear understanding of platform-specific pacing and retention - Ability to source relevant visual assets independently including images, clips, memes, and screenshots - Strong communication skills with the ability to receive and implement creative feedback without friction - Ability to work quickly, manage multiple edits simultaneously, and meet consistent deadlines - Genuine interest in watching and analyzing YouTube and short-form content, not just editing it Requirements - Edit short-form vertical videos in Adobe Premiere Pro from pre-selected source clips - Trim provided moments into compelling 45 to 90 second edits with strong hooks and high viewer retention - Add captions using the provided brand style - Add sound effects and music to enhance pacing and engagement - Source relevant supporting images, videos, memes, and screenshots to support storytelling - Add punch-ins, motion, and visual emphasis where appropriate - Apply basic color correction and maintain a consistent look across footage - Match the established editing style and pacing across all deliverables - Make independent creative decisions on pacing, trims, visual support, and sound design while staying within the established style - Recognize when visuals are needed to support dialogue rather than leaving the screen static - Apply comedic timing and purposeful humor where appropriate - Understand viewer retention principles and actively edit to keep attention throughout Benefits - You will be paid in USD (bi-monthly: every 15th and 30th) - Paid Time Off in accordance with company policy - Observance of Holidays per company guidelines - 100% remote setup so you can work wherever you're most productive - Work inside a fast-growing media brand generating hundreds of millions of views across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok - High-output creative role with room to grow into long-form editing as the company scales How to Apply Please include: - Your updated resume - A portfolio link showing at least 3 to 5 examples of short-form vertical content you have edited, ideally from long-form source material - A short Loom video (1 to 2 minutes) introducing yourself, walking through one edit you are proud of, and explaining the specific creative decisions you made around pacing, sound design, and supporting visuals Only candidates who submit both a portfolio and Loom video will be moved to the next step of the hiring process. Shortlisted candidates will receive a trial edit brief including a Premiere Pro project, source footage, caption preset, sound effect library, and brand fonts. You will be asked to produce a polished vertical short-form edit that demonstrates your editorial instincts, pacing, and storytelling ability. Application Process Overview Our comprehensive selection process ensures we find the right fit for both you and our clients: - Initial Application - Submit your application and complete our prequalifying questions - Video Introduction - Record a video introduction to showcase your communication skills and work experience - Role-Specific Assessment - Complete a homework assignment tailored to the position (if applicable) - Recruitment Interview - Initial screening with our talent team - Executive Interview - Meet with senior leadership to discuss role alignment - Client Interview - Final interview with the client team you'd be supporting - Background & Reference Check - Professional reference verification - Job Offer - Successful candidates receive a formal offer to join the team Each stage is designed to evaluate your fit for the role while giving you insights into our company culture and expectations.

• Own video end-to-end — from concept, scripting, and storyboarding through editing, motion, sound, and final delivery for Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, Shorts, and Reels. • Produce trending, platform-native content that reflects a real understanding of how US B2B audiences scroll, watch, and shared sharp hooks, tight pacing, and formats tuned to each channel and algorithm. • Repurpose long-form into high-performing short-form — turning webinars, podcasts, conference talks, and customer interviews into clips, reels, and highlight cuts that carry the brand. • Design motion and animation — kinetic typography, animated architecture diagrams, logo stings, explainer sequences, lower-thirds, and transitions that make complex technical ideas easy to follow. • Produce AI-native video at scale using tools like Higgsfield, Kling, Runway, Sora, and Veo for B-roll, cinematic sequences, and ad variations, treating AI as a force multiplier for quality and velocity, not a shortcut on craft. • Create AI-generated podcasts and presenter-led videos using AI avatars and voice tools such as HeyGen, Synthesia, and ElevenLabs, producing consistent, on-brand talking-head and podcast content without a full studio shoot. • Build polished visual assets — thumbnails, social graphics, title cards, and reusable templates, in Figma, Canva, Adobe Creative Cloud (Premiere Pro, After Effects), and Adobe Express. • Coordinate and manage shoots remotely with extended teams, freelancers, and on-camera talent (including executives and founders) across time zones, writing briefs and shot lists, directing remotely, and managing footage, reviews, and handoffs. • Own platform-ready delivery — correct aspect ratios, captions and subtitles, sound design, and brand consistency across every channel and format. • Collaborate closely and ship fast with content, design, marketing, and subject-matter experts in a high-output, iterative remote environment. • Stay ahead of trends and tooling — track emerging formats, platform changes, and the fast-moving AI video landscape, and continuously test and adopt tools that improve output. • Measure and iterate — track views, watch time, retention, engagement, and shares, and use the data to sharpen what you produce next.
