The role
You'll edit short-form video content for social platforms — cutting raw footage, adding captions, music, transitions, and motion graphics to produce polished Reels, TikToks, and Shorts that stop the scroll.

- Strong short-form video editing portfolio — Reels, TikToks, or Shorts
- Proficient in Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or CapCut
- Fast worker — short-form content is high-volume
- Good eye for pacing, trend-awareness, and what performs on social
Nice to have
- Motion graphics skills in After Effects
- Experience editing for specific niches (fitness, food, fashion)
- Understanding of platform-specific formats and aspect ratios
What you'll get
- $480–$750 USD/month based on experience
- Fully remote and async-first
- High-volume, varied creative work
- Paid leave
