About The Position

You are the person who turns raw footage into videos that hold attention, build trust, and make the creator look like the authority they are. You own the edit from the moment raw files land in your inbox to the moment the final export is ready to publish, and every cut, transition, graphic, and sound decision along the way is yours. Location: LATAM - Fully Remote Your Mission: Day to Day Responsibilities The core of this role is editing long-form YouTube videos. That is the job. You will be editing talking head content with B-roll integration, text overlays, motion graphics, screen recordings, multi-camera setups, and reaction-style edits across multiple client channels. Every client has a different voice, a different energy, and a different audience, and your job is to match all of it while keeping the pacing tight enough to hold viewers for 10 to 25 minutes. The full scope of what you own in post-production includes: Sound design and mixing, which means clean audio, music selection and leveling, and sound effects where they serve the content. The audio should feel polished without feeling overproduced. Color grading that is consistent, professional, and matched to the creator's brand and the energy of the content, not just basic correction. Motion graphics and text animations including lower thirds, callouts, data visualizations, title cards, transitions, and any on-screen graphics the content needs. There is no separate motion graphics role, so this is part of your responsibility. YouTube Shorts editing and Meta video ad editing are a bonus and a nice to have. If you can repurpose long-form content into vertical Shorts and produce video ads for Facebook and Instagram, that makes you more valuable, but the primary focus of this role is long-form YouTube content. You will be editing a minimum of 12 videos per month, up to 16, which means you need to manage your own time, hit deadlines without being chased, and communicate proactively when something is running ahead of schedule or falling behind. You will receive notes from the founder, from account managers, and occasionally directly from clients. You take feedback without ego, you ask smart questions when the note is unclear, and you turn revisions around fast.
