• Experiment with motion graphics, pacing techniques, and trending creative formats
• Develop and document clear SOPs, templates, and best practices for the video workflow

AI & Automation

• Actively leverage AI tools (e.g. Runway, Descript, Opus Clip) to increase output speed and quality
• Build and manage reusable automation workflows for recurring content formats
• Explore and implement AI-driven captioning, voiceovers, and clip selection
• Recommend and introduce tools and processes the team hasn't tried yet

Asset & Project Management

• Maintain organized project files, shared asset libraries, and version control
• Manage footage, soundtracks, templates, and motion graphics in a shared library

• 4+ years of professional video editing experience for social media or marketing (agency or brand-side)
• Bachelor's degree in Film, Media, Communications, or related field (or equivalent work experience)
• A portfolio that clearly demonstrates high-performing content,showcasing video editing and storytelling skills, not just good-looking videos
• Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, or equivalent, and the ability to pick up new tools fast
• Proven ability to edit for multiple formats (portrait, landscape, square)
• Fluency in English; experience working in international or multicultural environments
• Strong command of platform specs and best practices across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook
• Experience using data and analytics to guide creative decisions (YouTube Studio, Meta Insights, etc.)
• A self-starter mindset- you don't need hand-holding and you don't wait for someone to tell you what's next
