About The Position

Dude Perfect is hiring an Editor assigned to Dude Perfect Outdoors (DPO) to support the post-production team. The Editor assembles, refines, and delivers high-quality outdoor and adventure videos that reflect the energy, personality, look, pacing, and editorial voice of the DPO channel and the Dude Perfect brand. This hands-on role involves independently managing edits from media ingest and organization through final delivery in a fast-paced YouTube production environment, with an emphasis on unscripted storytelling, competition-style formats, audience engagement, and retention. The Editor collaborates with Creative Directors, Producers, and the Production Manager to develop compelling edits, incorporate feedback, coordinate post-production needs, and maintain delivery timelines and quality standards. The position is based onsite at Dude Perfect HQ3 in Frisco, Texas, and requires occasional travel. It reports directly to the Lead Editor of DPO. Applicants must submit a self-recorded video, five minutes or less, breaking down an edit. The recording should explain editing choices and storytelling, pacing, sound design, and structure; discuss the applicant’s outdoor interests and potential improvements to the edit; and show the project file, organization, and workflow.
