Short-Form Video Editor — B2B, Podcasts & Founder Content

Single Grain • Los Angeles, CA

21d • Remote

About The Position

We are hiring short-form video editors for Eric Siu's AI, marketing, business, entrepreneur, podcast, and long-form content. You will find strong moments in source material and turn them into polished vertical videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. The work needs immediate hooks, clear pacing, kinetic captions, purposeful B-roll or graphics, clean sound, and CTAs that fit the idea. We need editors who make strong editorial decisions without waiting for exact timestamps or frame-by-frame direction.

Single Grain is a revenue marketing agency that builds pipeline-focused systems that compound. We have helped more than 500 companies drive measurable growth. Eric Siu hosts the Leveling Up podcast and co-hosts Marketing School with Neil Patel. The content reaches marketers, founders, and operators across YouTube, podcasts, email, and social platforms. We operate as an AI-native team, using AI to improve speed, quality, judgment, and leverage, but AI output still requires strong human taste and quality control.

Requirements

• Include “Editing is cool” in the subject line of your application.
• Two recent short-form or podcast-clipping examples for B2B, AI, SaaS, business, entrepreneur, marketing, finance, or expert-led creators.
• Your exact role in selecting the moment, shaping the hook, editing the piece, and delivering the result.
• Current platform-native craft, not a stale reel or generic clip-farm template.
• A concrete AI-assisted editing workflow and the QA method you use.
• Proof that you can work with minimal handholding and meet deadlines.
• Quantified retention, completion, CTA, lead, or business-outcome evidence attributable to your work.
• Must not be a role for gaming, children's media, meme-only, or broad entertainment portfolios with no strong relevant examples.
• Must not be a role that waits for exact timestamps and complete edit instructions.
• Must not be a template-only clipping role.
• Must not be a role where listing AI tools substitutes for showing a real workflow.
• Must not be a views-only role; focus on whether the right audience watches and acts.

Responsibilities

• Edit current, platform-native short-form videos that make complex business ideas clear, hold attention, publish on schedule, and create qualified audience action.
• Review podcasts, long-form videos, and original recordings to identify strong moments.
• Build the cold open and structure the clip for immediate clarity.
• Edit vertical videos with native pacing, accurate captions, clean audio, and purposeful visual support.
• Adapt the edit to the idea and platform instead of applying one template to every clip.
• Use AI for tasks such as transcript search, clip discovery, rough cuts, captions, cleanup, or quality control while keeping editorial judgment human.
• Deliver organized files, clear versions, platform-ready exports, and fast revisions.
• Review performance feedback and improve the next batch.
• Flag weak source material or unclear briefs early and propose a better approach.
