You’ll turn raw footage into high-impact, retention-driven videos that educate, challenge, and inspire millions across platforms.

• Ability to balance speed, quality, and brand consistency in a deadline-driven environment.
• Curiosity and eagerness to test new tools, workflows, and creative approaches.

Responsibilities

• Execute against pre-production outlines, packaging direction, and creative notes from the Lead Editor.
• Optimize pacing, structure, and clarity with platform-aware editorial decisions (watch time, session time, retention curves).
• Identify issues in footage and proactively surface insights that improve storytelling and production quality.
• Apply proven retention tactics and narrative structure across platforms, not just YouTube.
• Stay current on platform trends and audience behavior across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X, and LinkedIn.
• Suggest creative improvements, alternate approaches, and potential risks early in the editing process.
• Maintain strict adherence to brand guidelines and editorial standards across all platforms.
• Collaborate with short-form editors to repurpose long-form content into platform-native clips when needed.
• Use team-provided templates, intros, motion graphics, and brand assets consistently across channels.
• Participate in post-mortems and apply learnings to continuously improve performance across platforms.
• Assist with basic production needs such as props or simple scene setups.
• Offer thoughtful revision feedback when requested.
• Monitor channel comments periodically to remove spam and support a healthy viewer environment.
